Behind the scenes of the ever-burgeoning underground bass music scene in the UK, there exists a symbiotic relationship between the sub-driven music and the visual art that parallels it. Through record sleeves, label artwork, party photography, press photos, and flyer design, artists have created an ocular compliment that aids in promoting the music on a Worldwide stage and bridges the gap for those unable to experience the scene first hand.

After widely successful solo exhibitions in London and Sheffield, UK from Georgina Cook, Ashes57, Tunnidge, and Shaun Bloodworth in the past year, "SubCulture" marks the first time these artists have showcased their works together outside of Europe.

In collaboration with Reconstrvct and Lifted Lab, an opening reception will be held from 8-10pm on Saturday, September 24th at the Morgan to celebrate the art that is so deeply embedded in the bass music culture. The reception will lead into the Reconstrvct party running from 10pm-4am featuring DJ sets from Tunnidge, Bunzer0, Joe Nice, C Dubs, and Truenature.

The exhibition will be on view downstairs at the Morgan from September 22nd thru September 29th. To commemorate the end of the weeklong run, we're also happy to announce that On The Sly will be hosting a special FREE closing party taking place at the Gallery @ Le Poisson Rouge on September 29th from 10pm-4am featuring Ital Tek, Dave Q, Braille, & knomad.

this is set to be a truly a one of a kind experience and we hope to share it with as many of you as possible. for those who can't make it, we'll be sure to document the night so you can also be a part of this unique and historic event.

Here's a peak at the 60+ original works and limited prints from the featured artists that will be on display for viewing and purchase (prices are reasonable too: most $30-$80, and then $200 for Tunnidge's originals)

tunnidge are you going to be selling that 'one for the heads' one with all the deep medi heads?

That particular poster was a one only run, but i am going to be doing another poster different to the one for the heads one. I didnt have time to get it from the printers before i flew out to the states but it will be a new york heads one. what ill do is whoever visits the exhibition can have priority option to buy, ill take down email addresses and then sort it out when im back in the uk. Like the last one this will be a one time only run, the last one sold out in about three days so make sure you get your names down. After that ill sell however many are left via the deep medi website.

Large fucking up, Tunnidge! I wish I could make it, or seen you last night but my schedule and location makes it impossible to do in the last minute. However, I initially bought Decay on digital, but now just because of this I'm buying the GDKR002 and hanging it on my wall!

While you're there could you please enlighten these ladies of where you're from and what you're doing there.
