Monorail Music – 20th Birthday Party poster and Staff Favourites! booklet

Monorail Music is a Glasgow based record shop focused on independent music. They work in close collaboration with graphic designer Musheto Fernandez for their visual communication.

They described themselves as follow:

Monorail Music opened in December 2002 after a sometimes epic three year long journey in search of a location and a way to make it all work. Glasgow then was a vibrant music city with something important missing, a great record shop, which we optimistically felt that we could provide. Operating from modest premises in a former Mexican restaurant, we’ve tried our best to provide the kind of record shop that we would like to visit on our travels. […]

Our first priority was obviously our shop, the 3D space, and making that work, but for a while it’s felt that we’ve got that down and that we’re ready to turn our attention to our website. At the moment it’s going to be impossible for us to represent online everything we’ve got going on in the shop. So we’re going to prioritise some of the new releases and reissues that we love, the music that we’re most closely connected with (groups, labels, projects) and other key Monorail items. In other words, independent, focused and friendly, like we’ve always tried to be.
