72 Essential Records from 1978–1999
A visual timeline of sound, style, and spirit.

The Scottish Sound is a hand-signed print charting some of the most iconic, influential, and cult-loved records to emerge from Scotland’s rich musical era between 1978 and 1999.

This is not a mass-produced piece. It’s a personal project, curated, researched, and designed by me, Alejandro De Luna, for anyone who loves post-punk, indie, dream pop, and the unmistakable legacy of Scotland’s alternative music scene.

“A walk down memory lane.”

Every print here tells a story. A carefully curated snapshot of musical history, distilled into clean, minimalist design. From iconic discographies to the hidden connections between scenes and cities, these works are equal parts research, curation, and design.

You’re not just buying a print. You’re getting a piece that tells a story for years to come with all the care and heart that comes from doing it alone.

Who’s Behind This?

Hi, I’m Alejandro De Luna, researcher, designer, packer, and playlist maker. I do it all, start to finish. This project began as a way to make sense of the records, places, and stories that shaped my life. It’s become a visual archive of musical culture crafted with the same care you'd give to a favourite vinyl.

“Brilliantly researched. Fantastically put together.”

“Excellently packaged with great care.”

“Clearly a labour of love, by someone immersed in the scene.”

No shortcuts. No templates. Just me, doing this because I love it.

Welcome to The Sense of Doubt

Hi, I’m Alejandro, the creator behind The Sense of Doubt—a project where I design wall art inspired by music, pop culture, and cultural heritage.
A little about my journey: I grew up in Mexico City but took off on an adventure in 2010. Since then, I’ve lived and worked in inspiring places like Stockholm, Hangzhou, London, Manchester, Berlin, Leipzig, and now Madrid—where I run my studio, dive into research, and bring my designs to life.
I love exploring different topics, digging deep into research, and turning information into unique wall art that stands out and tells a story. My goal? To create prints that grab your attention and spark conversations—like a great book or movie that reveals something new every time you revisit it.
So far, over 9,000 music and pop culture lovers in 20+ countries have picked up my prints, along with custom commissions. Each piece is made in small batches, hand-signed, and fully crafted by me in my home studio.
Got any questions or just want to say hi? Feel free to reach out.
