Crossfaded Bacon EP
bustbright, Los Angeles, California, 2008
Description
Emynd & Bo Bliz are two DJs and producers from Philadelphia. Flamin’ Hotz Records is a Philadelphia-based record label that produces limited-edition runs of specially packaged club and dance music from around the world.
For the label’s second release from Emynd & Bo Bliz, we chose to stick to the duo’s roots. A shot of the Philadelphia skyline bleeds across the paper sleeve while the silk-screened polybag serves as both archival protector and information provider.
Juror Notes
It’s all about setting up a feeling. The illustrated overlay works magic over the photograph beneath it. This also functions well as long-term protection for the record.
Artistic and original expression; raw yet colorful; wonderful contrast.
