Numero Uno
Frizzante, 2023, Munich, Germany
011
Frizzante is an italo-disco-band founded by three former flatmates during the Corona lockdown. Their dark but danceable signature sound consists of electronic percussion and a whole lot of cheesy synthesizer. For their first proper release the band opted for a cassette tape, and asked me to design the album artwork.
After litsening to the album, I started off with designing a custom typeface inspired by the band’s topics of electronics and robotics. A glitched font variation led to the band’s signature “ZZ” logo, which in turn led to the illustrations for the tape’s packaging. Inspired by the neon lights of the disco scene, I opted to add four pastel colors to my usual black-and-white palette.
