Astill's S.A.D. and Loving It!!

Shannon Astill Design



He may be S.A.D. by profession but there's nothing sad about this guy. From running from the cops as a mongrel, ILLEGALLY tagging his own stencils to designing images for festivals to now designing abstract art for interior designers. Shannon Astill has come a long way from just getting high in his garage and letting loose on a blank piece of canvas. He does what he has to do, mass-producing feature artwork for resorts, but his heart lies in creating art through WACKED out ideas.

This FRIDAY the 27th of March, Shannon will be SHOWCASING his new work @ EMPIRE with French-duo SAINT PAULI

Check out his MYSPACE for more

But for now here is some of his old stuff

Whats the Dub with this STEP?

If anyone has been watching DANNY T around 4.30am @ EMPIRE lately or following the next big bedroom DJ to make it, No DOUBT you would have heard something about DUB-STEP!!!!

Sure.... You may not be able to dance to it but lets just put our heads back about 2 years when peeps were struggling to handle the formula of fidget-house/electro Crookers was dishing out @ the time. Whats not to say we'll be listening to a track remixed by your favourite dub-step DJ another 12 months from now and running into a packed dance-floor just to loose your SHIT!!

If you caught him @ the Laneway Festival Just Gone, RUSKO made a fan out of a tonne of kids by smashing his version of Dub making him the next talked about DJ as the bringer of a new style of music. Just like Justice made Electro commercially excepted and Crookers doing the same for Fidget.... Maybe this guy can do it for Dub-step.... Maybe he Won't!?

Whatever you think and no matter how it pans out, Catch Danny T smashing it late in his sets @ EMPIRE, Saturday Nights....

Meanwhile, This Rusko Guy? ... Check him out!!!
