Rolling Exclusive Bass Crew Hand-Drawn Graffiti T-Shirt

There Are Two Kinds of Sound. The First Kind You Hear With Your Ears — It Arrives at the Eardrum and the Brain Processes It as Sound and You Understand That You Have Heard Something. The Second Kind You Feel With Your Body — It Arrives in the Chest Before It Arrives in the Ear, It Moves Through the Sternum and the Ribcage and the Stomach Before the Brain Has Had Time to Classify It as Sound at All. Bass Is the Second Kind. The Rolling Exclusive Bass Crew Runs on the Second Kind. This Tee Was Drawn by Hand for the Same Reason. — Rolling Exclusive Bass Crew Hand-Drawn Graffiti Tee in Black.

The Rolling Exclusive Bass Crew Hand-Drawn Graffiti Tee is the garment that most directly translates the physical experience of bass into the physical experience of wearing a T-shirt — the translation that works not through representation (a picture of a speaker, a graphic of a sound wave) but through process, through the fact that the graphic on this tee was drawn by a human hand rather than generated by a machine, that the lines on this tee carry the same quality of physical presence that bass carries in a room, that the imperfections and variations and the specific weight of a hand-drawn line are the visual equivalent of the way bass moves through a body rather than simply past it. A machine-printed graphic is to a hand-drawn graphic what a recording of bass is to bass in a room: technically accurate, visually or sonically correct, but missing the physical dimension that makes the original thing what it is. The Rolling Exclusive Bass Crew is the crew that understands this distinction — that knows the difference between hearing about something and being in the room where it is happening, between seeing a picture of a line and seeing the line that a hand made, between the bass that comes through speakers and the bass that comes through the floor and the walls and the chest of everyone in the space. Rolling is the state of the crew — always in motion, always moving through the spaces where the bass is, never stationary, never settled, always on the way to the next place where the frequency is right. Exclusive is the quality of the crew — not everyone can feel what the crew feels, not everyone has the physical sensitivity to register bass as a bodily experience rather than an auditory one, not everyone is in the room when the bass drops. Black is the color of every room where bass has ever mattered — the color of the club at 2am, the color of the basement show, the color of the underground space where the sound system is too large for the room and the bass is physical and the hand-drawn lines on the tee are visible in the light that is left when everything unnecessary has been removed.
