Electronic Poet, to those who don’t already know, is a UK based label whose aim is to celebrate the DJs, artists and producers that have influenced a generation through their music. From the obscure to the world-renowned, Electronic Poet pay homage to the mavericks and innovators of electronic music through their distinctive designs.

The SS09 collection comes just in time for the fantastic weather we are having, and for those who are lucky enough, just in time for the start of the Ibiza season. We can’t think of a more fitting tribute to the Balearic home of dance music than one of these fantastic tees, celebrating the luminaries of electronica.

This seasons range sees the likes of Daft Punk, Greg Wilson, Voodoo Ray and some of the biggest names in Disco celebrated in Electronic Poet’s own distinctive style, a mix of novel illustration and clever graphics perfectly showcasing these leaders in their field. But it is not just the pioneers of dance that are given a platform by Electronic Poet, they are always looking to show the talents of upcoming young artist and designers by way of their collaborations series.

Spring/Summer sees a collection based around the illustrative style of UK artist Si Scott, working mainly in pen, the Hummingbird and Letters tees brilliantly showcase this Leeds native’s intricate style. We are also treated to a fantastic photograph range, large black and white photo prints of events related to rave and dance culture, printed in a slightly pixelated style on premium white tees. One design features a girl dancing, another shows the police confiscating a soundsystem, while the final tee is a great photo of a rave in full flow, with the DJ and ravers in action.

It’s great to see a brand who really recognise their influences outside of fashion so actively. Whether you’re after a tee for a night out, or for a holiday – Ibiza or not – we’re sure you’d agree, you’d be hard pushed to find something better than Electronic Poet.
