Chi rocks our original 48K Tee

make it reel

we’re not just taking over airwaves

Joining forces with the NxN Collective (I Live Night by Night) has not only let us launch our own website, but it has teamed us with some incredible studios to help us bring our audio signals into the visual world. We’re super delighted to unveil the coming merch and artefacts for The Tapes, plus also our collaborations with like-minded sonic terrorists like overpoofsoundsystems.

Check out the gallery of upcoming releases as #fugacefugace, our sister NxN fashion studio rev up the sewing machines, load up the cutting tables and let rip (literally.) Plus the printers are ready for our limited edition vinyls and artist lithographs.

The Tapes are like us, whatever your signal in, it never comes out same twice, and certainly not how you planned it… it’s a Florence thing I think

introducing our sister studio #fugacefugace. Creative crazies led by Tokyo native Rei Zarharne they are helping us visualise #firenzesonic through their talgierino couture aesthetic.

From our new range of super slick tees, LP artwork, special one-offs for our artists, our branding and even this site’s design, they are a true creative powerhouse, able to pluck fully fledged visions from the fires of Florence.

Rei is now in Florence perfectly, but spans the calm precision of her Tokyo streetwear roots and steeps it in the slashed felt chi-chi couture looks a Firenze.

They’re right down the corridor from us now, so the momentum is building. Their own site is dropping soon, check out their amazing fabric experiments, we’re huge fans of their effeff diffusion line, we can’t wait to see it hit the streets of Florence.

don’t let love vanish

The word 'fugace' appears at the top in large purple and black letters, with handwritten text 'Kiri-no-Michi' near the woman's shoulder. There are outlines of trees and a bird in flight depicted around the scene.
