We've had the pleassure of printing Fools Golds Recs Stickers. Introducing "HOT SUACE" Records Stickers....here is some history of the lable & the graphic artist. ENJOY!......
* Duck Sauce is a musical collaboration between deejay heroes A-Trak and Armand Van Helden, melding the spirit of classic disco house with updated production thump and clever new twists - think modern-day versions of DJ classics from labels like Roule, or Armand's own beloved mid-90s catalog.
The duo teamed up for the express purpose of making instantly addictive club anthems, tunes they would want to play out themselves.
And it's worked! DJs around the world have been playing and charting their smash "aNYway" since the summer and salivating for the next batch of web footed tunes from the duo...

ABOUT FOOL'S GOLD:
The trendsetting Brooklyn label was founded in 2007 by DJs A-Trak and Nick Catchdubs and quickly established itself with a non-stop series of singles, introducing artists like Kid Sister and Kid Cudi to the world and being dubbed an "indie innovator" by Billboard and a "tastemaker label" by the New York Times. "This DJ scene that we're a part of in North America has influenced music scenes across the world, but ironically there aren't enough labels that represent it," says A-Trak. "That's where Fool's Gold comes in. A label where we can release Treasure Fingers and Kid Sister side-to-side without it being a stretch - and what's great with Fool's Gold is that it's not forced, since we're all just friends putting out each other's music." "To me, Fool's Gold is the modern version of what labels like Sleeping Bag and Nervous were doing back in the 80s and early 90s," says Nick Catchdubs. "They would put out house records and freestyle records at the same time as Black Moon or some experimental Arthur Russell single, and it all made sense. I want Fool's Gold to represent the absolute best in club music on all levels." Helping tie everything together is acclaimed Brooklyn graphic artist Dust La Rock, whose original imagery for all Fool's Gold logos and sleeve art provides a clever and constantly evolving visual aesthetic for the label.
