Hey gang,
I'm one part of a young Bristol Drum and Bass collective called Liquifyah. We're currently in the process of kickstarting up our business and are expanding into posters, t-shirts and the like to promote the business and the gigs we put on. We recently held a night at the Exchange that housed such DnB royalty as BCee and Loz Contreras.
So what I propose if any talented so-n-so's have any time to spare if they'd like to throw some designs that we'll use on posters, shirts and the like. The crazier the better and the best design will definitely end up on a shirt and plastered all over Bristol town.
And obviously anyone who wants to submit and is local to Bristol will definitely get thrown some free tickets to our next event (we're planning a HUGE one for the end of the year).
Thanks for taking the time to read guys. Love to ya'll.

This sounds profoundly like something you should pay artists for!
I'm sure BCee and Loz Contreras didn't give their time for free...

He's right, you know. If you're going to make money off the designs, some of it should go to the people who supplied them. Sorry, but I work as a commercial artist, and I've had too many bad experiences of people expecting me to do free work 'for the exposure'.
Couldn't agree more guys, I wouldn't let someone who put in some good time go unrewarded especially if what they do turns into a product and helps us out, I just thought that would be something best negotiated one on one with an artist if they found any interest in the idea.
Fair enough. In that case, hope it goes well for you
