My second 12" sleeve design is out now! I can finally show it to you. I finished it back in May, but that feels like years ago now. Check out my first one, for a remix of Anaconda by Untold, in this blog post. This new one is for the same label; SSSSS. It is part of Hemlock recordings; a independent London-based record co owned by Andy Spencer and Untold.
The 12" features two remixes of Untold's track 'Bones' by Joe and Rockwell. You can buy the disk or download at BoomKat.com. I love the tracks and had a lot of fun working on the sleeve. I have yet to see it, hold it in my hands, but I can't wait.
Again this sleeve has a Mehican influence, with ghostly skulls and bones (obvs) in running ink and a subdued off-black and magenta colour scheme. The sleeve also features everyone's favourite Psychoactive Alkaloid-containing cactus, Peyote. Peyote is currently an endangered species in the state of Texas, so if you're thinking of going on a 'vision quest' in the desert and harvesting some of the hallucinogen for your trip.. Don't.

And just for fun; below is one of the 'work in progress' versions.
