Put another record on:
I’ve started recycling some old lyrics by using them as inspiration for some typographic bits and bobs. This is a work in progress but I think I’ll leave it alone for now.

Old work - This is a cover that I did last year for the first issue of Irregular Magazine, a PDF publication that some friends run. I also designed the mag’s logo.
