Miyagawa Iren - LNP Records

Client : LNP Records

On this first album package for Japanese musician Miyakawa Iren, we placed importance on being visually appealing to a broader audience. After thoroughly listening to the album many times, we decided upon the fantasy illusionary imagery to interpret Iren’s musical perspective and present it to the world, allowing the listeners to experience a musical fantasy odyssey.

Migimimi Sleep Tight / The Massive Market

Client : Space Shower Music

Once again, we are delighted to be able to create an album packaging design for Japanese electro J-POP band “Migimimi Sleep Tight” under the banner of Space Shower Music. From their musical development, we can perceive the experimental nature of “The Massive Market”. Beyond using the mixture of English and Japanese lyrics, the music’s style produces a wave of Japanese American Funk and Future Bass, with Chinese lyrics adding further flavour, highlighting the feelings of metropolitan love story. In order to be able to display their amalgamation of ideas, we devised an eye catching colour palette and illustration to picture an urban trance of modern tunes.

Slobheads Andy's Got A Gun

Really fun one for Slobheads' new single 'Andy's Got A Gun,' featuring their out of control band manager Andy Arseface wreaking havoc on the town.

Royal Blood Poster

For this illustration of Royal Blood, the talented English rock duo formed by Mike Kerr and Ben Thatcher, there are references to Brighton, where the band is from.

The Royal Bengal tiger is coming into the city, stepping over  Brighton Royal Pavilion in a psychedelic haze.

You can read the band's name in the deconstructed tiger's stripes, which also stands as a reference to the structure still standing of the pier which burnt down in 2003.

Ozric Tentacles - career retrospective books

The latest in the Ozric Tentacles book sets I have designed is 'Trees of Eternity (1994 - 2000)' a 7 remastered Disc, 72-page Hardback Book containing 6 studio albums and the never-before-released Live at Fillmore, 1998. At the heart of this deluxe set is an in-depth book containing original liner notes by Dominic Blake, words from Ed Wynne, previously unseen photographs, rare content collected from band members old and new, personal artefacts from close associates of the band.

'Trees of Eternity' follows on from 'Travelling the Great Circle', the previous book which covered the first four full albums, from Pungent Effulgent and Jurassic Shift, a demos and rarities disc, the live Underslunky release, as well as the 1991 filmed concert from the Fridge in Brixton on DVD and a bonus disc of remixes.

The Nerve CD Cover

I was commissioned to help bring The Nerve's album cover to life based on their initial ideas. We wanted a fun, colorful visual that included the car wiith a woman tippnig her martini glass out the window while flying down a desert road. The rotoscope illustration style was also discussed in lieu of a more photo-realistic approach.

We shot the car with the model in a studio setting, afterwhich I used it for the illustrative composite. This included design of the logo and the sign with the marquee. We added a few tongue-in-cheek references for the fanbase and locals.

The final cover has been well received and was also the basis for a poster. The Nerve continue to work with me on various projects.
