With »Glitzerbox«, the Jimmy Draht tradition of a cross-genre collective approach of "creating something new together" is being taken up again – this time in cooperation with the Weilheim-based Alien Transistor label – to leave small glittering stars of DIY-releases in the musical and visual galaxy.

Since the late 90s Jimmy Draht publishes elaborately designed music-graphic-comic-text hybrids, most of them handmade and screenprinted. Initiated by Marion Epp, often in cooperation with a music label, artists from various genres are invited to participate. Each release is accompanied by exhibitions and music events.

Bands such as Calexico, The Notwist, Lali Puna, Neoangin, Pram, Otomo Yoshihide, A Million Mercies, Ted Milton, MS John Soda, Schwermut Forrest, Tied & Tickled Trio have participated (to name a few).

In terms of design we were lucky to showcase the works of ATAK, Anna Sommer, Knust, CX Huth, Katz & Goldt, Judith Zaugg, Thomas Ott, Jochen Gerner, Martin tom Dieck, Nadine Spengler/Pipifax, Jim Avignon, Le Denier Cri, Elvisstudio and many more.
