A3 Archival Print | Framed or Unframed

A tribute to the decade that defined independent music in Britain. This meticulously designed A3 print chronicles every No. 1 single from the UK Indie Chart between 1980 and 1989 capturing a raw, revolutionary era of post-punk, synth-pop, noise, and DIY spirit.

Inspired by the vintage layout and typography of British music newspapers and indie chart listings, the design echoes the bold, type-driven aesthetic of NME, Melody Maker, and Record Mirror, publications that gave shape and visibility to the indie identity throughout the '80s.

Featuring landmark tracks like Love Will Tear Us Apart by Joy Division, Blue Monday by New Order, and There Is a Light That Never Goes Out by The Smiths, this timeline documents the artists who dominated the UK Independent Singles Chart from Cocteau Twins and Yazoo to The Jesus and Mary Chain, Depeche Mode, Crass, and The Stone Roses.

Each chart entry includes:

  • The date the single first reached No. 1

  • Weeks spent at the top

  • Song title

  • Artist and record label

A detailed reference and visual time capsule for collectors, designers, DJs, and music lovers alike and a must-have for anyone passionate about the UK indie scene.

The Sound of Memory, Visualised

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.

They’re not mass-produced. They’re not generated by a team.
They’re made by me, Alejandro De Luna, one man with an obsession for music, detail, and memory.

These prints have become:

“A true fan’s dream.”
“A walk down memory lane.”
“Something to get lost in again and again.”

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.
