Justice’s Timeless Music Transforms Into Rare Autographed Soundwave Art for Charity
Written by RickTee on August 20, 2024
Justice have teamed up with the Soundwaves Art Foundation to offer electronic music enthusiasts the opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind work of art that gives back.
You’d be hard-pressed to find a cooler philanthropic organization than Soundwaves, which raises money by developing and selling bespoke pieces of art from the recorded audio waveforms of songs. Turning tunes into triumphs for the greater good, the foundation has donated over $10 million to charities by working with over 700 musicians, including Outkast, Elton John, Dolly Parton, Pearl Jam and countless others. They’ve also collaborated with ODESZA, Flume, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Fatboy Slim and The Chemical Brothers, among many other illustrious electronic music acts.
Soundwaves has now joined forces with the legendary Justice, who are fresh off the release of one of the year’s best dance albums, Hyperdrama. The band’s 2007 track “Genesis,” the opener of their seminal debut album Cross, finds itself crystallized in the foundation’s pioneering art format. Each print is both a tangible echo of the deeply influential song and a visual representation of its timeless French electro, which has redefined dancefloors for two decades.
This isn’t just about aesthetics, however. Autographs by Justice’s Gaspard Augé and Xavier de Rosnay elevate these pieces into rarified territory, making them coveted items for collectors and music aficionados alike. The prints, of which only 50 are available, were signed ahead of the duo’s show at the Brooklyn Navy Yard on July 25th, Soundwaves Director Jeremy Klitzman tells EDM.com.
This collaborative endeavor not only showcases Justice’s musical prowess, but also harnesses the power of their sonic signature to drive positive change. All proceeds from sales of the prints will benefit War Child UK, a non-governmental charity “working to protect, educate and stand up for the rights of children caught up in war.”
The autographed prints are up for sale for $300. Unsigned prints are also available for $75 and each is signed by Soundwaves founder Tim Wakefield.
