Turns out if you want to make made to measure stuff then you actually have to make a gauge swatch. Ridiculousness.

(I made one. It worked. Guess i have to relinquish my anti gauge swatch tendencies. Boo)

Aksak Maboul - Une aventure de VV (Songspiel) (Made to Measure Vol. 48)

In the wake of their acclaimed comeback album 'Figures' (2020), Aksak Maboul took a playful sideways step to create this total work, a 63-minute, continuous suite of fifteen pieces, which could be described as an experimental audio play. The thread running through 'Une aventure de VV (Songspiel)' is Véronique Vincent’s text, an enigmatic philosophical-poetical tale unfolding through monologues and dialogues, spoken and sung by a series of characters, played by Alig Fodder, Laetitia Sadier, Audrey & Benjamin from Aquaserge, Don The Tiger, Blaine L. Reininger, and the members of Aksak Maboul’s current live band: Faustine Hollander, Lucien Fraipont & Erik Heestermans. The music was written & arranged by Marc Hollander and features his characteristic genre-hopping tendencies: strands of electronica, pop, jazz, collage, techno, ambient, improv, krautrock, contemporary classical & systems music are merrily woven together, in the inimitable Aksak Maboul style. The album’s subtitle, 'Songspiel', highlights its theatrical/musical aspect: the work pays oblique homage to the those experimental radio plays that once emerged from the creative workshops of the BBC, the RTF and the RAI, and especially to those German Hörspiels which, at their best, might combine spoken word, instrumental or electronic music, songs and sonic research. Une aventure de VV also modestly alludes to certain stage works written by adventurous composers during the first half of the 20th century, which embraced singing, spoken dialogues and elements inspired by popular music. Those composers sometimes invented genre names to describe their pieces: fantaisie lyrique, mimodrama, or... songspiel).

My designs on RedBubble.

& AranMade designs on Contrado.

I've been doing more digital designing lately since I injured my elbow and knee. Since I have all these designs, I started uploading them to many print-on-demand sites. It's been an interesting process. Some sites function better than others, but they all seem clunky.

My thoughts so far on the various print-on-demand marketplaces.

Spoonflower - I've purchased fabric yardage and a throw pillow cover from them. I used some of that fabric in the quilts and tote bags I made for my nieces.

I've been pleased with what I've received and the time it takes to make and ship. I've made a couple of quilts for gifts with my fabric panels from there, but I'm curious how the fabric will hold up over time. I think it will fade more because it's a direct ink printing process.

& Art of Where - I've purchased fabric yardage from them to make quilts. Their natural fabrics are dyed with reactive dyes, so they have much richer colors that don't fade as much.

They are, however, very slow to make and ship. My experience so far has been 3-4 weeks from the time of order until I receive it. But the print quality of their fabric yardage is excellent, so this is who I'm mainly using to print my quilt top panels.

Society 6 - I've ordered a rug from there before, and it's relatively thin, but I liked that about it. I've also ordered prints and been very happy with them. I like some of the home goods options they have on there (like credenzas), but I haven't gotten anything like that, so I'm not sure how the quality is.

Zazzle - I have not ordered anything from there yet, and uploading designs there is quite tedious, so I'm still working on this one. I do like that they have a cotton throw blanket option. I also get a lot of holiday cards from folks printed from Zazzle, so lots of folks must like what they make.

Contrado - I got all their fabric samples, and they have many lovely options! They use three different print methods depending on the material. Their natural fabric yardage is also reactive dye.

I ordered some neoprene with one of my designs to make a knee brace. I still need to make it, but the material looks great, and the print quality is excellent. The time to make and ship was also relatively quick.

Their products are also more spendy than the others on the list, but they are all made to order in the UK, and they make leather handbags and clothes with edge-to-edge print-to-cut methods.

My only issue with their site is that it only works sometimes when I click the link to my store.

it’s important to know the difference between bespoke, made-to-measure and ready to wear because depending on the fit, fabric quality and/or occasion your suit shopping for, this basic terminology is worth knowing.

VA - Fictions (Made to Measure Vol​.​47) - Crammed Discs’ commission series is going strong after its 2021 revival

Eight distinguished artists wrote and recorded original pieces for this album which joins some dots between vintage, experimental & new ambient, and pays tribute to the relaunched Made To Measure composers’ series Featuring, by order of appearance: Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, the American modular synth wizard (US) Christina Vantzou, the Greek-American orchestral composer (US/GR) Stubbleman aka maverick ambient composer Pascal Gabriel (UK/BE), with Norwegian trumpet player Nils Petter Molvær (NO) Lucrecia Dalt (COL) + Camille Mandoki (MX) + Matias Aguayo (CL/DE), in a special collaboration Mary Lattimore, the celestial experimental ambient harpist (US) Inne Eysermans, the front person from Belgian indie band Amatorski (BE) Félicia Atkinson, the French experimental musician & visual artist (FR) Benjamin Lew & Steven Brown (BE/US), with their first collab in over three decades All tracks were made to measure for this album, and revolve around the loose idea of wordless fiction. Aside from being such a seductive, fascinating collection of tracks and moods, the album is also modestly aiming at joining dots between certain classic ambient composers (represented here by Benjamin Lew & Steven Brown and Stubbleman, whose work has previously appeared in the Made To Measure series), artists who approach experimental ambient from their pop or club background (Lucrecia Dalt, Inne Eysermans, Matias Aguayo), and eminent exponents of the great new generation of ambient music composers (Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Christina Vantzou, Mary Lattimore, Félicia Atkinson). The cover of Fictions is a reproduction of a painting by renowned Belgian artist Angel Vergara Santiago (two of his paintings were already featured on covers of early Made To Measure volumes, back in the 1980s). 'Fictions' was curated by Marc Hollander. * The first 100 preordered physical copies come with a free A3 poster reproducing the cover painting by Angel Vergara Santiago* creditsreleased October 14, 2022licenseall rights reservedtagsTagsBelgium
