: >wikked red deconstructionist design, : >strongly reminiscent of TDR, but : >apparently not -- also submitted : >mysteriously through anonymous remailers : : Yeah I can't wait to unlock that one : either. I get chills thinking about it. : Fuck out of here. Styles played out : no matter who did it, tDR-clone or tDR. : Props to all the labels that either do : original graphics themselves or : use the hundereds of other great : designers from around the world, : especialy here in the U.S. that don't : jock tDR. Down with the Warp-tDR : mentality and jock riding of the past. : Let's get some originality : back in the music and design. heh. and as always, your tired of this style now, wait until mainstream packaging and design companies turn to this kind of style. first it was DnB / electronica used in commercials. now its used by Madonna + that one girl on the MTV tube Christina something and countless others. the next time you flip through your child's Cd collection you'll come across a CD which claims to contain a Backstreet Boys Aesthetic Standards Manual / with bonus specifications and guidelines for the integration of the Backstreet Boy aesthetic into the underground marketplace. (verbatim / well almost) i on the other hand like the minimal sound / design style. but yeah, anybody can do as good or better then tDR if they actually thought about packaging and design. i really can't understand why more recording artists don't do the design themselves or collaborate more. like the RDJ album, lush little flesh pieces. klint. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
