The previous shop was a chaotic mess, and our task was to clean it up and simplify. I kind of wish I remembered to take a screenshot of the previous look to compare, but I did not. So you’ll have to take my word for it. It’s much cleaner and easier now. (Success!)

Luckily, Chris’s team was already using Shopify, which I’ve become a big fan of lately. For years I was hesitant to take on new e-commerce projects because they ended up being so time consuming, but Shopify totally changed my view on that. (See also, shops for Big K.R.I.T., Smokers Club and Pro Era, all Shopified.)

Look for another Eric/Fishbucket collaboration later this month.

Well, problem solved!

Today we launched PharrellWilliams.com, which is just a quick little page with some links and a photo. But hey, it’s a responsive design – for the kids!

Stay tuned, I’m sure this page will evolve into more of a site at some point.

We did away with the scrolling lookbook that’s been chuffing by for the past few years. Now highlighting what’s going on in the shop, pulling in content, and other stuff that the kids enjoy these days.

It’s passed around to a few friends but rarely makes it outside that circle. But hey, it’s pretty good stuff so why not share it further?

This is Rap Mix 2012, and you can tell from the cover that there’s a strong Beastie Boys presence this year, in remembrance of MCA.

Give it a listen and leave comments below. If there’s interest I’ll share some from previous years. (I mean, if “Dolemite” allows it. That dude is mysterious.)

Happy New Year, people!

This is a site we’ve been working on at odd hours in September. Pretty clean and minimal, introducing the new incarnation of the Icecream Skate Team. Skate on over (see what I did there?) to teamicecream.com and check it out.

Hit that!

This project had a quick turnaround time, and the task was to create a Tumblr-based site and brand the corresponding YouTube, Twitter and Facebook pages.

All we had to work with was the logo, so I came up with these different patterns of blocks using colors from the logo. Pharrell was happy with the outcome, and liked how it brought up thoughts of tetris and 8-bit Atari games. (Side note: it’s still a huge honor to be on a call with Pharrell and hear his enthusiasm about something I came up with!)

So hey, take a look!

This is just an initial redesign before a bigger project. More to come!

And I’ve gotta give big thanks to Vashtie for the recommendation. She rocks!

This photo was taken at the screening of Awesome, I Fuckin’ Shot That (which I fuckin’ shot.) The biggest moment of my Beastie Boys-loving life. Yauch cracked a joke while we paused for the picture, something like “thank you for your vote.”

I wish I could say I knew him or got to spend more than one smiling-like-a-maniac minute with him, but this is all I’ve got. Plus the hundreds (thousands?) of hours of Beastie Boys I’ve listened to over the past twenty-something years.
