Frets with DJ Fey

August 23, 2024 by djfey

Hey, in addition to being a designer / art director as my real job, I have a podcast. It was born out of the boredom of lockdown a few years ago and I’ve been having a blast interviewing musicians, mainly who play guitar. But having a podcast not only requires recording, editing and producing (I use Logic Pro and love it), but it does require graphics. A show logo, art for social posts, promo images and video. I figured it […]

stringbean coffee 8-track

July 21, 2021 by djfey

I’m a big fan of Stringbean Coffee and being a coffee snob, I brew pour-overs with my nifty Chemex. And I grind whole bean coffee from Stringbean. If you know of them, you know Pete. He’s a great guy who roasts great coffee. This was created to promote an event at his facility, a groovy place that has a disco ball hanging and glistening right above his roaster. It took some work to get labels off of a bunch of […]

Twangfest Day Party SXSW 2017

February 28, 2017 by djfey

Another great lineup this year for the Twangfest Day Party in Austin at The Broken Spoke. I wanted to use a pedal board image and found a great one that I almost used. Then I shot one down at J. Gravity in St. Louis and considered using that. And then I found the photo I ended up using by my Flickr friend Juan José Uribe Durán, who goes by Juanjo. He’s in Santiago, Chile and I think his photography is […]
