IRVINE, Calif. — Boosted, a lifestyle brand passionate about and influenced by art, music and popular culture, announced today the launch of the limited edition Boosted Tin Can Speaker Set Vol. 1 MINT & SERF x MAINFRAME at Monkey King (Los Angeles), Rotofugi (Chicago), Yoyamart (New York), Cardboard Spaceship (Santa Cruz), Plastic Chapel (Denver) and Urban Outfitters Online.
With only 400 available, the Boosted Tin Can Speaker Set Vol. 1 draws inspiration from the simplest form of communication – two tin cans and a string. The first in a series, the Boosted Tin Can Speaker Set Vol. 1 MINT & SERF x MAINFRAME are fully functional speakers compatible with all types of music devices (such as iPODs, MP3 players, computers, video game consoles and more).
The battery-operated speakers are intended as a platform for artists to showcase their artwork in a unique way. The symbolism refers to coast-to-coast communication and brand inspirations including grassroots interest in art and music.
The Boosted Tin Can Speaker Set Vol. 1 pits renowned street artists MINT & SERF representing the East Coast against MAINFRAME representing the West Coast. Mikhail Sokovikov, born in Moscow, and Jason Wall, originally from Brooklyn, combined their passion for street art to create 1134NYC. Within five years they became internationally known as MINT (Mikhail) and SERF (Jason) a.k.a MIRF. Dean Bradley (a.k.a. MAINFRAME) is a Southern California-based artist and graphic designer. The MAINFRAME character represents the struggle between nature and technology.
“The Boosted Tin Can Speaker Set Vol. 1 really gets to the core of the Boosted brand, bringing together one of the original forms of communication with music and a modern twist that reaches out to our international customers,” said Andrew Schulenburg, Sr. Business Development Manager, Boost Mobile. “We could not imagine three better artists to collaborate on our first volume as MINT, SERF and MAINFRAME have been an integral part of the Boosted family.”
The limited edition Boosted Tin Can Speaker Set Vol. 1 MINT & SERF x MAINFRAME is available now for $99.99 at Monkey King (Los Angeles), Rotofugi (Chicago), Yoyamart (New York), Cardboard Spaceship (Santa Cruz), Plastic Chapel (Denver) and Urban Outfitters Online.
