just asking (no attack intended):
how are the designs similar? color schemes are completely different, art
work is completely different. if you mean both designs are minimal in
composition, i think that's due to the fact that the artwork is meant to
parallel the music-- which, in this case, would be minimal. in top's
defense listen to 'spherique' for one of the most tasteful build-ups ive
encountered in the minimal genre.
