Who are secret 7?
"We take 7 tracks from 7 of the best-known musicians around and press each one 100 times to 7” vinyl. We then invite creatives from around the world to interpret the tracks in their own style for every 7”. 700 sleeves are exhibited and then sold for £50 apiece. You don't know who created the sleeve, or even which song it's for, until you have parted with your cash - the secret lies within." -Secret 7
Secret 7 is a annual event that combines Music and design for a good cause. Each year, once secret 7 displays all the final vinyl sleeve and sells them all, all the money recived will go to charity. This year the money will be going to a charity called Nordoff Robbins who works with people with a range of disabilities.
Secret 7 also invites a number of famous designers to take part in the competition. Some famous names include Peter Saville, Jamie Reed, Annie Leibovitz, Storm Thorgerson, Fred Deakin, Mark Farrow, Leif Podhajsky. Obviously from looking at the list of designers the competition will be great to take on the big guns. Also this year the gallery is located at Somerset house, London. Being situated in London is an amazing spot and If I'm lucky enough to be chosen then it will be a great opportunity to social network and possibly get talking to other designers.
