Archivio #1 – Records store ads and paper ephemera from Rave fanzines of the early 90s

Archivio is a series of publications by Never Sleep focused on the exploring archiving practices, displaying private collections of visual artefacts, memorabilia, collecting garments and graphic curiosities. A memories wunderkammer: from rave-club culture to the youth subcultures.

The first issue, curated by Gabber Eleganza, is a publication that collects and contains rave records store advertisements, graphics curiosity and illustration ephemera. With extensive research on the archive, tons of old techno and rave fanzines from the early 90s (from USA, UK, Holland, Belgium, France, Italy and Germany) were included and gave a new life for this project. A pure, rough and beautiful visual testimony of a unique and unrepeatable historical moment.

大受好評，最後再版。

由 Gabber Eleganza 主導之 Never Sleep 出版系列刊物 Archivio，以探索各種早期音樂/視覺相關文宣品為主軸，進而彙整成一本本的紀錄檔案。第一期由主理人 Gabber Eleganza 親自主編，以九零年代的鋭舞及青少年文化為背景，收錄大量來自老唱片行廣告、世界各地派對宣傳品、粉絲獨立製作小誌等等的稀有珍藏視覺圖像，並濃縮匯集成 116 頁的歷史檔案紀錄，絕對值得珍藏。

先前首刷、再版都已搶購一空，如今決定最後一次再版發行，請務必把握機會不要錯過了。
