Animat CD cover

CD Artwork for Animat

Big Chill Recordings artist “Animat” asked me to design artwork for their latest album “Earplay”. Taking the album title as a starting point I came up with a design based on a stylised pair of ears performing to an “audience” of ears.

Readers Wavs CD artwork
Artwork for compilation CD “Readers Wavs”

“Readers Wavs” is a compilation cd of music produced by regulars on the Big Chill forum. My idea for the artwork was to show the variety of methods people were using to create the music, and the broad range of nationalities involved in the project.
Aardvark to Zebra flyers

Aardvark to Zebra flyers

Aarvark to Zebra is an eclectic music event that happens monthly in Clerkenwell, London. I was asked to come up with a logo for the event, and a flyer template. For the logo I took a simple approach, working the “A” and the “Z” into representations of the Aardvark and Zebra. The flyer was heavily influenced by old afrobeat album artwork, and the LP feel is emphasised further by the “record” coming out of the side of the flyer. The flyer template colour scheme is easy to change, giving each event it’s own identity.

Soxan Flyer
Soxan identity and flyer

A/V event organisors “Soxan” asked me to work on a new logo and flyer concept. The brief was to create a logo that was contemporary, playful, and something that be easily incorporated into the flyers of their themed events. I designed the logo from scratch, creating the font specifically for the job. The flyer was produced to show how the logo could easily be linked in to the theme of one of their nights, “Soxan Spice”.
