NEW LOOK KOI:
March is our 5th anniversary, so we’re growing up and changing our look, and for the better we think! Our skull & cross bones logo has done us proud but it was dated and a little too ‘hot topic’ for our liking and we thought it about time that koi records should once again depict the koi fish. the koi has always been a japanese symbol for ‘non-conformity’ (koi always swim upstream and against the flow) and a sign of ‘strength in times of adversity’. we feel that sums us up quite nicely thank you, so we’re bringing the koi fish back into our logo. we know in marketing circles that changing an established company’s logo or identity ain't the done thing but as non-conformist koi, we doing it anyway.
5th anniversary store sale coming soon!
New Koi Records t-shirts are in and will be up for sale very soon!
Thank you to everyone who has been a part of the KOI family over the last 5 years and we look forward to your continued support over the next 5 years!
Cheers n'beers
Mark and Rebecca
