HAZE Artist Series Preview
Posted on Jan 25th, 2012
We’re proud to present new work from HAZE as part of our Fool’s Gold Artist Series. As a teaser of what the opening has in store, Dust La Rock linked up with the ink master at his BK studio and brought back some pics and video for you to enjoy. (Eagle eyed FG fans will recognize the gold frame design from the HAZE piece that adorns the front of our store!)
Check the art out in person – and grab limited edition t-shirts while they last – at the Artist Series opening this Friday (1/27) from 7-9pm at our store on 536 Metropolitan Ave in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Read More
New Shirts + More At The FG Store
Posted on Jan 18th, 2012
The Triz Puppet would like to alert you to some new coppables and hawt deals at the Fool’s Gold online superstore (and our flagship retail location in Brooklyn, too!)
First up is a new “classic gold” colorway of our fan favorite logo tee. People kept asking for it, and hey, we aim to please. We also dropped the price on a handful of older shirt designs and limited tour tees, there’s literally only one or two sizes left in some of these, so act fast. And finally, for the true connoisseurs among you, there’s a bunch of museum-quality Dust La Rock prints from his “Best Of The Beast” exhibition if you’re feeling brave enough to ball out on some artwork.

It goes down two weeks from today on Friday, January 27th at the Fool’s Gold store on 536 Metropolitan Ave in BK from 7-9pm. Refreshments will be served and artist will be in attendance. Stay tuned for some special previews of the art and limited-edition shirt…

New Fool's Gold Webstore Is Live!
Posted on Nov 16th, 2011
This summer we opened our flagship Brooklyn retail store as a home for everything Fool’s Gold: all of our music, gear, and rare items in one place. We threw some parties, a ton of friends and fans came through… but why should BK have all the fun?
Today we’re proud to announce the launch of store.fgrecs.wpenginepowered.com, a brand-new web version of our physical store. Hooray internets! Customers from around the world can now get their hands on new music and merch as soon as it’s out, including limited-edition collaborations like our Members Only jacket and AIAIAI headphones.
To celebrate the launch of the site (along with our ongoing four year label anniversary) we’re premiering 4 Deep, a special Serato pressing featuring four previously unreleased remixes from the label vaults spread over two slabs of psychedelic 12″ colored vinyl. The collection features Tony Senghore’s insane take on rap eccentric Lil B’s “Freeze,” the sought after half-time mix of Kingdom’s “Mind Reader” featuring Shyvonne, an exclusive club mix of Cubic Zirconia’s afterhours jam “Night Or Day” and Amen Brother’s 808s & breaks take on DJ Gant-Man’s “Juke Dat Girl.” Vinyl audio tracks on one side and Serato control tones on the flip, packaged with Fool’s Gold logo turntable slipmats.
Limited to 2,000 pairs worldwide, 4 Deep is available for exclusive preorder on the FG webstore and will release around the world on Black Friday, 11/25. So what are you waiting for? Go shopping!
