Piper Gates Design is not just for Christmas, these goodies and more available from tinyurl.com/wyxcduzt

It's that time of the year again: Piper Gates Design Christmas Cards now available from tinyurl.com/wyxcduzt

Very proud to be involved with this, designing the sleeves for the singles was so much fun. The highlight was instigating the reissue of 'Tarot' which is a career highlight. youtube.com/watch?v=47iUR6…

@PeteSelby1 @nineeightbooks Sorry to hear that; what a great run of books you helped create - look forward to what you do next.

I have some sad news about @nineeightbooks

@modsoftoday The Olivia Tremor Control

Most underrated band of all time?

@modsoftoday Going Out

Best song by Supergrass? 📸 Paul Natkin

@DaveModculture Local Chippy did this pre covid but sadly didn’t catch on.

A chippy opening at Sunday lunchtime would make a killing. Outside of tourist spots, never happens.

@Ringo11Lee You need to watch Repo Man after that!

Have spent a coupon of hours this afternoon dipping my toes into American Hardcore - Misfits, Fugazi, Minor Threat, Circle Jerks Black Flag etc. interesting

@TheWolfhounds @gidcoe @BBC6Music It’s an absolute pop classic David!

@BassMidsTopsEtc @robmesure I had my own similar niche game: Wayne Kramer (1970 onwards) or Martin Shaw (Professionals era).

I've invented a really, really niche game. It's called: "LAETITIA SADIER OR MILLIE BOBBY BROWN?"

R.I.P. Damo Suzuki, this is my favourite song by Can - could listen to it all day... youtube.com/watch?v=xem3Fk…

@littleblueshed During lockdown I got a dubplate made of it, had fun with the sleeve…

@PiperGatesD The Andy Bown one - best TV theme ever.

Last year I had the pleasure of designing some 7 inch sleeves for @tlakmusic The first three: Blossom Toes, Anji Cakebread and Mirage singles are available now. Arthur Brown, Andy Bown, Garbo’s Celluloid Heroes and the Syn to follow. Available from thinklikeakey.com/?lang=en_GB

@DaveModculture Also a career highlight for me designing the sleeve and suggesting it be reissued.

@DaveModculture I’ve heard the remastered files being used for this and it sounds fantastic!

7-inch reissue for this gem. I'm in.

@fred_owl Just to let you know Think Like A Key Music are reissuing “Tarot” on vinyl in March. This is the sleeve I’ve done for it…

Wishing a very happy birthday to the lovely and magical Mr Michael Mackenzie! Any excuse to repost this picture from his birthday celebrations last year of the great man looking very dapper with the equally great Judy Loe. Tarot and Lulli forever! 🦉

RIP the mighty Wayne Kramer. This is my favourite clip of the MC5. They take an average Stones song and make it a sonic masterpiece. The energy level is insane youtube.com/watch?v=lmmfEy…

Between 1984-1985 the Mary Chain were the best band on the planet, this cover was so good it got me into Subway Sect youtube.com/watch?v=lTOLqR…
