DROP 001 / OBJECTS FROM THE RECORD / NUMBERED EDITION

Objects from the record.

The archive keeps the history. Drop 001 puts a piece of it in your hand: a small, numbered edition of physical objects, made by hand between Portugal and Aotearoa, for the people who were at these parties and the people still going. We show it when it exists. The Signal hears first.

What it is

Physical objects. Not a mystery box, and not festival merch with a logo stuck on it. Each piece is printed, cut and numbered by hand from the archive’s own visual language — the entry stamp, the archive-copy mark, the dates the record stands on. Things that survive thirty years in a drawer, the way the real flyers and wristbands did.

We are not showing it because it is not made yet. When it is, the people on the list see it first — what it is, how many, what it costs and where the money goes — and get the access window before it is public. That is the whole arrangement.

THE SIGNAL

One email. One message.

Join the Signal and you get a number on the list. When Drop 001 is ready you get one transmission with what it is, what it costs and where the money goes — and first access. Nothing else, ever. Leave with one click.

No spam. One transmission when it opens. Leave with one click.

Questions

When does it open?
When the edition is made and numbered. The list hears first; there is no public date before that.
What does it cost?
Disclosed with the drop, together with where the money goes. No hidden margins.
Do you ship outside Portugal?
Yes. Portugal, the European Union and the rest of the world, including Aotearoa.
Do you run parties?
No. We archive them. Every party on this site is listed with a link straight to the people who run it.
Will there be more drops?
Each drop is its own numbered edition. The list is the same one for all of them.
Can I leave the list?
With one click, from any message. We never sell or share the email.
