Analog Soul releases new rock and roll designs

Analog Soul comes out with new designs that envelope Filipinos’ most common form of expression – music.

Once again, it collaborated with young artists who shared their talent and expressed their insight on Rock and Roll through Analog Soul’s shirts. Designers Paolo Lim and Ronnie Amador return with their Another Dimension and Rockstar designs, respectively, while Vincent Pimentel comes out with his Past, Present, and Future design.

“We’ve witnessed how Filipinos have used music to express their views, and among its many forms, Rock and Roll is what we can say one of the most expressive forms of music,” Migs Naguiat, Analog Soul owner, expressed.

“As what we always say, Analog Soul allows its brand to be venue of artists to share their insights and ideas. And, with these new designs, we’re proud to be, once again, the venue that allowed these young artists to share their thoughts and insights on Rock and Roll,” Naguiat said.

Their shirts capture one’s expressions and emotions, which becomes the brand’s motivation to come up with creative, evocative, and eclectic designs.

They got soul

Analog Soul presents “Do you have an Analog Soul?” t-shirt design contest winners

The call out of Analog Soul's "Do you have an Analog Soul?" t-shirt design contest received numerous response from the creative young generation. Among the sea of entries received, two young individuals' designs stood out and bagged the Soul on Demand Voters’ Choice and the True Analog Soul awards.

Jeffrey Dela Cruz brought home the Soul on Demand Voters' Choice award for his “Through the Years” design.

"Story is about the icons of how I came to know music. Every generation, there were significant representations that pop to mind to characterize music. There was the turntable during my dad's time then came the cassette for my brother's generation. My idea of music for my generation is already the compact discs," he explained.

The young artist learned about the Analog Soul t-shirt design contest through blogs that he follows. For the “Do you have an Analog Soul?” contest, Dela Cruz submitted 9 entries. He shared that he was really betting on his “Through the Years” entry to win.

A passionate artist, Dela Cruz showcases his talents though art design contests he follows. He also designed the winning entry for Incubus t-shirt design competition when the popular band visited the Manila years back.

He is an advertising graduate from the University of the East. Dela Cruz now works as a graphic artist at Tom’s World.

For Ronnie Amador, winner of the True Analog Soul category, he used the design contest to make one of his aspirations come to life. His “Rock Star Kit” design was born out of his frustration on someday being able to play a musical instrument.

"I love music and would love to be able to play a musical instrument so I can make music. I hope that there’s a tool kit that can make me a rock star someday," Amador enthused.

When he learned about the contest through a newspaper article, he made sure that his designs would be included in the contest. He was so determined that he sent in 36 entries and was pinning his hopes on his Rock Star Kit design.

Like Dela Cruz, this young talent also uses art design contests as his way of releasing his creative ideas. Amador is a Fine Arts graduate from the University of the East and is now one of the artists of DM9 advertising.

Analog Soul is a Filipino retail clothing and accessories company that embraces the creative and eclectic side of the market. They pride themselves in having a brand that provides customers and the artists with an avenue to express themselves.

"This t-shirt design contest is a testament of that," Analog Soul owner Migs Naguiat said. "We know how creative Filipinos are and we will continue to encourage and engage them to put these creative juices into use. Let Analog Soul be their canvass."

A SOULidifying Partnership: Analog Soul partners with Pinoy Artists

They talk about expression. They talk about creativity. They talk about individuality. These points have brought Analog Soul and Filipino artists together to form a partnership that can be considered as an expression of the soul.

Beautifully and artistically, Ysabel and Tata have been able to design shirts for Analog Soul.

Some of Ysabel's most popular designs include the Medusa shirt, Rock and Roll, Earth, Sweet Tooth, Jellyfish, Grunge, Linked, Bubbles and many more.

Tata, on the other hand, works up his inspiration by observing the irony and comedy of life, and of course, with his daughter as his greatest inspiration. He also makes sure that he has a daily dose of creativity books on screen and on the web.

Aside from being an Analog Soul artist, Tata is also working on Design Insurgent & Wolf & Sheep Clothing. He shares, “I love that I am able to get to work with creative talents around the world. Brainstorming is just like coffee in the morning. The best thing of all, I also get paid for doing the things I love 24/7!”

Through the artistry Filipino artists like Tata and Ysobel, Analog Soul now carries creative, evocative, and eclectic designs that aim to capture their market’s expressions and emotions. Their shirts aim to be the venue for their customer’s to shout out their emotions or express one’s self.
