MLCH004 EP : “MASSIVE SYNTH URGE” BY ILIVOR
ART DIRECTION + ALBUM COVER
■ PROJECT PRODUCED FOR MELANCHOLIA RECORDINGArt direction and visual design of a vinyl sleeve for Ilivor's EP “Massive Synth Urge”, released on Melancholia Recording. Imagined as an assemblage of musical references, Ilivor created his EP in a playful way, injecting different musical influences and aesthetics from the 70s and 80s. The puzzle takes up this idea of playfulness by honoring the making of music: “making music is often about taking little bits of stuff and putting them together to make a coherent and lively whole”. 7 puzzle pieces (for the 7 tracks) gravitate, framed by neon lights that structure the visual and add depth. Sober and geometric, the graphic treatment reflects the 80s, using the primary colors of the artist's earlier EPs.
