[Frank]

Awesome picture.

I'm also working on a piece finally. Experimenting without a computer at least. I'll upload it within now and 23 hours and 7 minutes.

The pictures are great, they seem to appear fake though. (except for the 3rd one) In my opinion you are one compilation too late. This would've been a great addition for the microsite of OoT2.

Makes you think too much about summer. hmm.

[Colorform Sun]

i'm going to say the only ones that really stand out as likely candidates are the topography and powerline covers by sarinsaturday. excellent images, design, and font. The others are just not album art material i suppose. sarin's stuff has a much more professional and appealing look, and a lot of the other ones seem to be trying a bit too hard to be "twoism album art", instead of actually being "twoism album art" automatically. hope i'm making sense.

[Frank]

Mine is almost done. I work better when the deadline is close.

[Frank]

K, here we go.

Front

Back


click here for high res.

Not 100% sure if the backcover fits the front real good, i might make it a bit lighter. Anyway, the front is totally finished so base your opinion on that one.

50% handmade 50% digital.

Any suggestions welcome ofcourse.

Those are awesome.

The colors are very rainbowish. Maybe a little more muted? Either way, beautiful.

[Joebot Kill]

OK... I tried for something a little more minimalistic and graphic. I've got like 9 variations of this. Here's two:



I really like this one:


Let me know what you think!

[Frank]

Awesome Joebot! That's what i tried to say with my earlier replies, trying a new style.

And thnx SI.

[ArtOfTheGroove]

These last two are excellent (Frank & Joebot).

Frank's colors are awesome, and I like that Joebot's is the first example that doesn't use a photo.

Nice to see a few alternatives...

[Aesthetics]

I second ArtOfTheGroove on this one.

Frank: I like the setup, there is something about the colourscheme which I don't like.
JoeBot: I really like the second one... do you have a backsite and enough variations to create a full package?

[Frank]

The easiest to edit is the colours, i'm not so sure about the back myself. The cover is ok in my opinion, but might need some tweaking.

Here are a couple more variations.




I'll come up with the back tomorrow. Coming up with a whole package wouldn't take long at all.

I love it! That just screams 1970, but does not quite fit the feel of our music imho. SarinSunday's "Topo" has my vote.

[turquoise70]

My vote is going to go to one of the designs that's more than just a photo. I've been loving most of the submissions so far, but I want to mention that thus far we've been taking for granted that the cover has to incorporate a photograph centrally or feature one prominently or simply just -be- an edited-up photo. i like joebot's a lot.

and just in case it matters somehow, I agree with Frank about the overall style issue. I think that the benefits of trying a new direction and opening up other avenues of style alone are all the motivation we need to try that sort of idea. I think Sarin is right that honesty matters and a good deal of our music could probably be represented by grainy photos but I'm personally not interested in coagulating into a collective 'nostalgic music' genre for the sake of unifying and uniting things. I personally find the idea of letting OoT be a stylistically-multidirectional representation of the best of this community's talents to be more appealing than letting it be a group effort at producing a 'nostalgic music record' hermetically sealed into its own style, artwork and all. the difference isn't nearly so much a stylistic one as it is an attitudinal one.

just my blah blah whatever

[rdy2bz]

Just my thought: why trying to tear down the imaginary borders that naming a style sets? Why do you under all circumstances want to create a non-'nostalgic music" if this would be exactly the right word for it? Just for the sake of tearing the word down?

Don't misunderstand me, I'm agreeing with you that it would be a fault to set a "§1 the music has to be boc-nostalgic", but isn't it you with your words that create the sealed style eventually?
Sure it began so, but now it's not that important anymore. So let the anti-attitude to it vanish and don't bring it to live by fighting it.

It's a music compilation and here we try to find a design for it. Nothing more imho.

[BrandNewRetro]

All of them are great, but I think Joebot's are the best so far. Although quite simplistic, the artwork is intruiging and striking, to me at least. The one that looks like waveforms is my favourite.

Edit:

ie this one!

[ArtOfTheGroove]

The one that looks like waveforms is my favourite.

I'm sure that someone here can do this much better than me, but what if it WAS waveforms:
