Alias-The-Jester bosstrabs I gave the two girls in them flyers their brown wings. Not hard, considering the fudge packers that they were hanging around with ATT.
zackster Dave’s on it. It was around like 99-00 prob. I remember it was on the back of one of the very first Mixmags I ever purchased. Had no idea who Seb Fontaine was or what Cream was. Iircc he had a hilarious look on his face in the shot. And its one of those pant pisses where he clearly rushed it, left too much in the line, and did a premature retuck. Dermo calling him Fatty Piss Pants still gets me. 🤣
bosstrabs That series was 1999. The following year they went for a Calendar type design. This was when I had started clubbing regularly, remember it well, the flyers from Cream etc were on my walls.
zackster Its crazy that Seb has the Beyonce like power to have an unfortunate pic scrubbed from the internet.
Amps Got stacks of flyer design books, and the Cream stuff always features, but these where far from their best ones imo, too corporate for a nightclub etc.
bosstrabs Amps I don’t know, I kind of liked Farrow Design’s stuff for Cream and Designer’s Republic stuff for Gatecrasher, it seems naff now but it was pretty original in the days when most flyers were like this:
Amps bosstrabs I reckon the Designer Republic stuff still stands up, that and all their WipeOut stuff was and is boss, I just think some of the Cream stuff was a little flat everything considered. But yah, point taken on the state of the rest of it.
zackster I always thought the cream adds were pretty bad ass, but I was also 15 and would have thought just about anything club related that I could find was cool. The cream ads just seemed higher brow than the Gatecrasher and Heaven ones that I saw in Mixmag Urb and Muzik.
Amps zackster higher brow Think that is exactly what they where going for, it just lacked a little creativity for me at times, but then it’s all rose tinted this end etc.
bosstrabs I feel like this would make an excellent track title, Artist: FAO of Dermo Title: Seb Fontaine Piss Pants A Side: Seb Fontaine Piss Pants B Side: Seb Fontaine Piss Pants (Breaks & Banter Mix) Make it happen someone, get it on Juno
alistair Last time I saw Seb was at the Ministry in the mid noughties. Remember hearing Pjanoo for the first time which was rather nice
