The Morning Hormones
Identity & posters

Creating two new superstar DJs, here we go…

Leeds-based DJ duo and event organisers Morning Hormones wanted to stand out in a club scene overflowing with glossy, overproduced graphics. Neon Brand Consultancy delivered a bold, tongue-in-cheek brand identity and poster campaign that perfectly captured their irreverent, underground energy.

Fronted by two quirky illustrated characters — brought to life by artist Nick Deakin — the campaign became instantly iconic, helping Morning Hormones gain recognition from record labels, promoters and clubgoers alike.

The result was a visual identity that didn’t just promote the DJs — it became the show. The characters evolved into cult icons of the Leeds music scene, proving that originality, humour and a touch of attitude can turn a local act into a standout creative brand.

Kind words…

“We’re totally stoked about the whole thing, it got us recognised, our posters are not just pinched but in demand.

The Morning Hormones identity & posters are awesome work, we love the little dudes! Big love and respect from the Hormones.”
