The cover of the new album by the Austrian analog/digital musician Hans Platzgummer succeeds in producing a hovering underwater atmosphere. Appropriately for this quiet but very aware soundscape, we designed a somewhat abstract underwater world, utilizing the existing structure of the maxi single packaging to its full potential. The full album came with a sticker sheet featuring a whole array of humble creatures, giving the viewer/listener the possibility of converting the album cover and creating their own individual version of a submerged world.
