I’ve started some font design work for my next EP called ‘Chocolatier’. The theme obviously is chocolate, and I need to decide on a font that will portray what I am trying to get across. Once the font has been chosen then I can look into the rest of the design to make it match.

A fantastic place to find fonts is www.dafont.com. There are a tonne of free ones, some paid and some donation based fonts. Ive sifted through most of them whilst listening to my new favorite artists Marc Broussard. Who actually looks quite like this guy from http://www.kingkyle.com/ who is an Australian celebrity… here let me show you how uncanny the resemblance is….

they even tilt their head the same way.

Anyway back to Fonts… Here is what I am looking at.

I’m really liking the last font. It was created by Steven j. Lundeen of emerald City Fontwerks.
It has a home made feel to it as well as an old feel. Kind of reminds me of old ladies who make their own jam.

and its not that I want you to think of old lady jam jam made by old ladies. Its more the feeling of,

‘I made this with my heart and I want to share it with you.’

Anyway, what do you think of the font? Should I choose another one? Any suggestions?

If you would like to have this font, you can find it for free at http://www.dafont.com/intimacy.font.

Ok, time for some toast I think.

I haven’t been updating much over the last month.

But it is not because I am not working. Ive been working quite hard. The EP is nearly done in the recording stages. I haven’t told you much about it yet, still a little hush hush.

So if you feel like your missing out, you can always see what Im up to on twitter @adamhoek and on facebook .

I am nearly in concept art stage!

A while back, I interviewed Coppersky.
I saw them play live and really digged their sound.
Well it turns out I’m not the only one! Recently they have been featured on 3FM(a dutch radio station) as Serious Talent. I’m pretty excited for them. I had a chat with them about it and they have been booking a lot of gigs. Recently they played at FlevoFestival which was pretty sweet! Tonight they are playing at Flevover in amsterdam at dwazeZaken around 21:10 (9pm)
I will be going and should be around there at 5:30pm. Feel free to come by and have a listen! Lynn is the first group at 6pm.

Anyway, to celebrate coppersky getting big I decided to finally record that cover that I promised them a while back.
check it out below.
