Some October Launches

October 29, 2015 By steve announcements, Blog No Comments

It’s been a busy October at Fishbucket! Here’s what we’ve been up to…

Raury

raury

weraur.com

This young man has some talent! His new album is really interesting and different, and he performed in the first month of Stephen Colbert’s Late Show. It’s exciting to work with a new artist who’s on the way up. We did a quick little two-pager for him, on a site that’s expected to evolve and grow.

Big K.R.I.T.

bigkrit.com

bigkrit.com

We’ve been working for KRIT since early 2012. Earlier this month we gave his site a full update to reflect the style of his new release (using artwork by the great Growing Pains Studios.)

DJ Premier

premierwuzhere.com

premierwuzhere.com

Also this month, we refreshed the look of DJ Premier’s official site, Premier Wuz Here. We reworked the navigation, added a tour page, and gave the site a new tan look for the fall. (And also managed to catch PRhyme when they performed in NYC, which was great.)

Vashtie

vashtie.com

This spring we redesigned Vashtie’s site with a fresh new look. Losing the purples and fun characters from the previous versions and going with a simpler, responsive style. After a few delays and tweaks, we were happy to finally relaunch the new design this month. (But a version of the old animated scene is still available if you’re feeling nostalgic!)

Kirk Knight

thekreeper.com

This is a one-pager for Kirk Knight of the Pro Era crew. His debut solo album drops at midnight tonight. The design came to us from his label and we handled coding and responsive-ifying. (And check out that subtle flicker!)

Phew! Can’t say this is all we worked on this month, but this was the bulk of it. On deck for November is a brand new site for comedian Liz Miele and the long-awaited refresh of the Billionaire Boys Club shop.

Onward!

October Launches: Buddy, Violette, Rens

November 16, 2011 By steve announcements No Comments

Sometimes there are so many fish swimming around in the bucket at once, it’s hard to find a minute to announce when one of them grows up and is released to the world. (Huh?)

October saw three different sites launch. One of these days they may just make an appearance in the portfolio, but in the meantime here’s an overview…

Buddy

This is a single-page site for Pharrell’s new protégé, Buddy. It had a quick turnaround time, but luckily we had some great photography to work with. This one has a liquid design* and can work at various window sizes.

*Not related to Liquid Design, the company where this writer started his web design career in the late 90s.

Violette New York

A remade site for Vashtie’s clothing line, Violette. It’s always a pleasure working with Vashtie. I’d like to think it’s because we both grew up in the Capital District and can relate to each other on a 518 level, but it’s probably because she’s generally a great person to work with. She wanted to go simple and use a lot of black & white for this one, so we worked in some desaturation magic and kept everything smooth and slick.

The shop uses Big Cartel, which I’d been looking forward to using for a while. I was pleasantly surprised, it was very easy to work with.

The Rens

This was a quick site, (still in progress,) for an NYC youth basketball league, The New Renaissance. This site is currently just a quick overview of this new program, and will grow in the near future to show more about the teams.

The client requested an auto-playing Flash intro. (classic!)

Note: Parts of this site are based on an excellent theme by MKNY Studio.

new site: vashtie.com

Here’s a fun site we just launched for Director/Artist/Party Promoter Vashtie Kola: VASHTIE.COM

vashtie_still

We can’t take too much credit for this one, since it relies so much on the great illustrations by James Blagden, but hey.

And if you ever find yourself on the lower east side late on a friday night and want to hit a club, be sure to check out Open, her weekly party with Q-Tip and Rich Medina at Santos. I can’t guarantee that you’ll be photographed with a crazed look on your face, but I can guarantee you’ll hear great music without the usual club attitude and dress code BS!
