Relix

Relix magazine has a wonderful heritage—originally launched in 1974 as Dead Relix and devoted to connecting people who recorded Grateful Dead concerts, it has long been considered one of the international authorities on music with live and improvisational performance at the heart of its remit. It is the second-longest continuously published music magazine in the United States after Rolling Stone.

With a nod to Relix’s heritage, the design uses a visual language and fonts influenced by its past with bold retro typography, visible grids and a prominent use of black.
