thinking is terrible

Birthday cake Ashley made me.

jordynjitters:

man you guys

so many things today have made me forget the awful week I’ve been having.

remember earlier when I was bitching about how it felt like every one had received their Explorers 6 stuff except me?

it’s like District Lines knew, guys, it’s like they knew.

I’m in a great mood. I know what I’m wearing tomorrow!

now I just need for the vinyl to arrive. :]

just look at how simplistic and absolutely lovely the artwork is.

it’s also really, really soft and comfortable.

How about a coherent post because I’m no longer in a mad rush to get to school on time?

I am so glad I chose to buy this amazing, beautiful record. I can’t even explain the feeling that comes from being able to look at it and hold it in my hands.

Better than that, even, I can play it, as I’ve been looking forward to doing since I ordered it, and even more so since it arrived this morning.

And I am playing it. Right now.

It’s just kind of incredible to think that there are only five hundred like it in the world, and now I own one, and I can look at it and listen to it whenever I want! 

And if you don’t think that is completely awesome then I really don’t know what’s wrong with you.

So yeah, thank-you Tom, if you see this, because it’s genuinely great. Thanks to Vondell, too, for making the artwork so damned gorgeous. 

Hmmm… I’m really happy right now :D

Explorers 6 by Tom Milsom arrived on vinyl today. I’ve been excited for this for quite some time now and it’s lovely to finally have the actual package in my hands! Before I get on to the music, let’s talk about the packaging. The packaging, in my opinion, is lovely. A lot of albums, when released on vinyl, can lack on nice packaging. I felt like I was getting something that someone had put a lot of effort into designing with this package, and I loved Tom’s inclusion of a drawing done by him and the number out of 300 that this particular album was (mine was 50, which was lovely). There’s also a little photocopied note from Tom congratulating you for purchasing the album. The cover design is lovely (and done by Vondell Swain I believe) and the record itself is a beautiful shade of blue (though my shitty phone pictures do it absolutely no justice).

The music is of course also great, but I won’t go into that too much now. I’ve already sung my praises for the music, it’s more the packaging I’m focusing on here.

I’m just so glad it has finally arrived and Tom Milsom should be very proud of himself for creating a wonderful album, and Vondell Swain should be proud for creating such wonderful packaging.

just remembered that I never posted this wallpaper/poster design I did for the release of Still Got Legs

I held off posting it because I didn’t know if it was going to be used for anything and then it wasn’t but then I forgot about it

so here is that

This is so gorgeous
