Hivern Discs

Hivern Discs continues the celebrations of its 10th anniversary with the exhibition No Sleep Since 2008, a show that will bring together work by artists who are close to the label in order to explore its identity beyond music. 'No Sleep Since 2008' will feature a soundtrack produced specially for the occasion by label artists John Talabot, Khidja, Steve Pepe and Lawrence Le Doux: four pieces of an ambient nature, envisioned to accompany the exhibition while at the same time representing various facets of the label's musical character. The four cuts make up a vinyl record that will be distributed along with this publication, that is set to be presented the same day of the opening. The publication, titled the same as the exhibition, collects texts written by journalists who are in the label's orbit including Philip Sherburne, Shawn Reynaldo and Franc Sayol and features the participation of artists such as John Talabot, Jordi Labanda, Ivan Smagghe, Khidja, Marc Pinol, Eva Geist, Arnau Pi, Lawrence Le Doux, Xavier Marin and Alicia Carrera. The book is designed by Oficina de Disseny and can be purchased on the day of the opening and during the entire duration of the exhibition. Both the exhibition and publication mark the beginning of the label?s 10-year-celebrations, which will continue throughout 2019 with a tour and a compilation, among various other things. A series of events that also mark the beginning of a new cycle for Hivern, as is represented in the logo that UK-based studio DR.ME has designed specially for the anniversary.
