Estimated reading time: 3 min

Attack Store Launches Sitewide Black Friday Sale

Attack Magazine is running a sitewide Black Friday promotion offering 20% off select products through Tuesday at midnight PST, with discounts applied automatically at checkout. (Original source) The sale spans the publisher's full catalog of production resources: books from the Secrets series, Max for Live devices, studio posters, and apparel ranging from rave flyer collections to artist tribute editions.

The promotion underscores Attack's direct-to-creator retail model, monetizing editorial authority through curated tools and merch. By positioning the store alongside its Black Friday hardware and software round-ups, the publisher channels producer traffic into a self-contained ecosystem where educational content doubles as product catalog. Discounted bundles—including Secrets collections and producer tool packs—anchor the sale, lowering entry costs for readers transitioning from editorial consumption to active purchasing.

Books Merch and Max Devices Discounted

The sale covers T-shirts emblazoned with Underground Resistance and TR-909 graphics, studio posters referencing Cybotron and Acid House iconography, and rave flyer anthologies documenting UK club culture. (Black Friday - Attack Magazine) Attack's store structure groups products into Books, Max For Live, Sample Packs, Studio Gear, Downloads, Apparel, and Posters—categories that span educational resources and lifestyle merch. Pricing data shows posters dropping from $20–34 to $14–16 during the promotion, illustrating the 20% reduction across both physical goods and digital tools. (Black Friday 2025.

The event underscores Attack's publisher-to-store loop: editorial authority earned through gear guides and the Secrets series converts into a curated marketplace, with Black Friday serving as the annual traffic accelerator. (Original source) By positioning the store alongside third-party hardware and software roundups, the publisher frames its own catalog as an extension of the season's broader discount cycle.

How Producers Can Stack Editorial and Tools

The Secrets series forms the editorial spine of the store: producer-focused technical manuals on house, techno, and synthesis, each built around the magazine's gear-review methodology. With 20% off automatically applied, bundled sets become entry points for newcomers while individual volumes target narrow production questions—sound design, arrangement, mixdown—that editorial alone cannot resolve.

The same discount applies to Max for Live devices developed or curated by the publisher, bridging editorial authority and functional utility. By selling tools alongside analysis, Attack closes the gap between reading about technique and implementing it. Apparel and iconography—Roland drum machines, Detroit logos—monetize subcultural signaling, turning readers into brand ambassadors. Black Friday compresses the decision window, aligning the store cycle with broader retail momentum and converting editorial trust into transactions. (Black Friday - Attack Magazine)
