Inside you’ve got the new El Bar tee (designed by Georgios of EC & PROCESS where he remixed the logo by Steve Deniro), a sticker pack from The Joneses, a StreetLocal Gentleman comb, the new Frank magazine, Scion socks, and various mixtapes including remixes from ATL’s own, Rob Wonder, Klever, & Treasure Fingers. Not pictured are the 2009 V.I.P./No Cover keychains that were also handed out at the door. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it an extra-special evening!

If you were at El Bar for New Years Eve last night, you may have noticed their new sign hanging behind the bar (designed by Steve Deniro). Here’s how it was made…

Black El Bar keychain

Remember to pre-pay your $20 for New Years Eve at El Bar. You’ll get one of these “No Cover / V.I.P.” keychains that will allow you to get into El Bar for FREE in 2009. It’s totally worth it! If you can’t make it by the bar in time, you can always email them at info@elbaratl.com and they should be able to work something out with you.

Keychains will come in 3 different colorways, see them all after the jump

Here’s a preview of the new El Bar tee that is one of the many reasons you should pre-pay for their New Years Eve party. $20 gets you so many benefits including one of these shirts. Nothing is more ATL than this tee… except for being a Celtic hater. (Don’t pretend like you rep the A and let me see you at Philips Arena cheering for Boston. That’s negative points in my book, you poser!)

Autographed DJ Clark Kent/Black Friday Air Force 1 shoebox

About a week ago, sneaker fiends in New York, Boston, and Miami were camping out for these Nike Air Force 1’s that they had never even seen before. They were set to release early Friday morning, November 28th a.k.a. Black Friday. The designer of the sneaker, DJ Clark Kent, and Nike kept the sneaker a mystery for weeks, yet people were still hyped on its release.

After combing the internet for photos of the shoes on Friday morning, I was disappointed to see the lack of quality images so I got together with Decatur Dan and we made it happen. Also, word on the street is that these will be dropping in other cities soon. ATLiens, check your usual spots for more info.

Don’t forget to download DJ Clark Kent’s hard-to-find Black Friday Mixtape that he made for the release of the shoe. Note: It’s a large file, so I’ll have to take it down in a few days. Get it while you can!

Our good friends at The Joneses were thoughtful enough to send us a box of goodies for the holidays. I’ve personally been a fan of the maroon J hat for a long time and I’m happy to be wearing it as I write this entry. I like The Joneses’ bold statements with the use of simple graphics throughout their line. Definitely a quality product from good people. Big shout out to Aaron and the rest of the crew in Charlotte, Atlanta, & Chicago.

The PROCESS / Epidemik Coalition family wishes you a Happy Turkey Day! As we approach the holidays we’re busier than ever, but we’ve made time to create a special friends & family treat. We’ll be sending them out towards mid-December. So if you’ve done something thoughtful for us this year or if you’ve been one of our favorite clients, you haven’t been forgotten! More details coming soon.

About 2 months ago, Georgios and I participated in the Atlanta version of a speaker series called Pecha Kucha. The funny name is derived from a Japanese term for the sound of conversation (”chit-chat”).

The key to Pecha Kucha is the simple formula: 20 slides for 20 seconds each. Each invited speaker has the spotlight for 6 minutes 40 seconds to share and show off their work before the program moves on to the next presentation.

This was the first time I had done any public speaking since I presented my design school portfolio upon graduation, so it might be a little shaky, but it’s worth a listen if you are interested in how our brand, PROCESS, came to life.

Our buddy, Scott sent me this message and accompanying photo the other day:

“Larry, I’m out here on tour still and thought I’d send you this photo.
Represent the home team.
;)”

You can barely tell, but he’s wearing a black on black PROCESS logo tee we made a few samples of earlier this summer. Scott (aka Tester) tours the world playing his unique brand of Jungle/Reggae. Check out his group, Trilogy Sound Crew.

I recently posted a preview of the new Nike Store at Lenox Square and had a chance to be one of the first people to create some sneakers in their Nike iD Studio. This morning, I was totally surprised to get a phone call telling me my shoes had arrived (a little over 2 weeks later, that’s fast!). I went for a clean/basic look and as it turns out, my new Dunks match my new Atlanta Hawks fitted that I picked up at Philips Arena a week ago. Speaking of Philips Arena… does anyone want to go to AC/DC on December 16th?

I just returned from a wild weekend in Charlotte, North Carolina which happens to be where our buddies The Joneses got their start and is the home to several of our friends with StreetLocal. While I was up there, I took some time to stop by one of my new, favorite shops called Black Sheep where I picked up this Limited Edition shop hoodie that’s apparently been in high-demand as of late. Thanks to Black Sheep’s owner, Josh, for recommending some great places to hang out. I’m looking forward to making the Queen City trip more often in ‘09. It seems like everywhere I go, there’s family.

Come out and celebrate Slugger’s birthday this Wednesday night. The night starts off at Bookhouse Pub around 9pm and moves to El Bar around 11. See you out!

Here are some more photos from last Thursday’s PROCESS x Sopobikes Event at El Bar. These come courtesy of Hadi S. and his brand new camera that he’s so excited about. Check out our boy, Joe Martinez, all-over-the-place…

The Process x Sopobikes event was a big success. Thanks to everyone that came out and showed us support. Also, thanks to Rachael and Tito from Sopobikes for making us a bike. It looks dope.
