Conquest Recordings
Identity for an independent music label.
Do you remember the 90's?
You know...That distant decade that saw so much change and growth in the music world. When you could still see a music video on TV. Where there was a new band popping out of a basement or garage almost every week. That time when the currently legendary bands were just a bunch of kids playing small college clubs for beer money.
We remember that time too. And those memories helped create this identity. While attending college in Delaware, the local music scene of the small college town was big...rap, rock, folk...you name it we had it. And even though I did not attend all of the events, the promotional artwork of the bands of that era played a key role in influencing my decision to pursue the visual arts.

The Tempest
The most animated part of the logo nicknamed "The Tempest" has its roots in street art, computer generated Mandelbrot renderings and the rawness and dynamic nature of a once thriving alternative music scene.Right On But Slightly Off
Continuing with the theme of a complete lack of respect for authority, the logotype (set in Ziggurat) gives a nod to the Russian Revolution with the reversed "N's".
