- Eternal Children | Album ArtworkSleeve layout, label design and custom typeface for the “Eternal Children” album by Equiknoxx. This is the first vocal album from the critically acclaimed Jamaican collective to be released on their own label Equiknoxx Music. The clients had a very clear idea of how they wanted the artwork for their first vocal album to look and feel, their aim was to show their audience a rough but real sketch of how they view themselves as Eternal Children. Equiknoxx member Bobby Blackbird provided some beaut
- Mask On Riddim | EP ArtworkCover art for "Mask On Riddim" a riddim release EP presented by Epic B and Swing Ting released on the Swing Ting label in March 2019. The clients wanted the artwork to incorporate a mask element alongside the riddim name, plus the featured artists. I created an illustrated mask motif and worked it into a bold type lockup to reflect the feel of the release. By adding a dark palette with bright yellow highlights I feel the cover represents the dark elements of the riddim yet is still in keeping w
- Jump to the Bar | EP ArtworkCover art for the digital version of "Jump To The Bar", a bouncy JA-to-UK link up that features an all star combination of producers and artists from the Equiknoxx Music and Swing Ting collaboratives. Released in January 2018 on the Swing Ting record label. The clients wanted the artwork to feel part of the same family as past Swing Ting and Equiknoxx releases "Tease Me", "Bubble" and "Fly Away”. I followed the same design process by creating a type based cover with the title of the track being
- Braver | 7" Label Design7" label design for the vinyl release of the Swing Ting edits of "Braver" by Alexx A Game. The brief was to design a set of labels that would complement the edits featured on the release. Braver is a personal favourite of mine and the first vinyl release on the Swing Ting label so the design had to be special. I developed hand rendered lettering that was bold and brave and which I felt fit the strong, emotional vocal from Alexx A Game. The first pressing of the release was so popular it was rep
- Going Modd | EP ArtworkCover art for "Going Modd" a collaboration between gqom champion DJ Lag and FDM pioneer Epic B released on the Swing Ting label in November 2018. The client wanted the artwork to reflect the feel of the track which combines sounds of Durban and Brownsville. Inspired by track’s hypnotic sound I created a type lock up which illustrates its movement.
- Daylight Ravings | IdentityVisual identity for Swing Ting and Hipsters Don’t Dance present Daylight Ravings; a one off collaboration event at Ace Hotel Rooftop. The clients wanted the visuals to illustrate that this event would be a unique daytime clubbing experience, and hint at the club and soundsystem sounds the djs would be playing at the party. Inspired by the typography and layout of vintage reggae posters I combined bold text with bright vibrant colours with speaker stack motifs to create the poster, flyer and s
