Musical sub-genre logos

Summary

I am passionate about music and often use it as inspiration when designing things in my spare time. These pieces are from a collection of musical genre logos where I visualised some sub-genre's of music and posted them to my personal Instagram design account.

Ambient House

A genre very close to my heart with acts such as Boards of Canada, Autechre, B12 ad some of Aphex Twin's work.

I wanted to capture the icy synths and unpredictable drum patrrens found in this genre, so hexagons of various sizes and fills were used along with purposefully splitting the words up with a hyphen.

Lofi House

One of my more recent obsessions, Lofi House took over my year in 2018. With artists such as Ross from Friends, Project Pablo and Baltra.

This sub-genre leans heavily on 90's culture so I created a logo that used the simple shapes and faded primary colours I remember growing up in the 1990's.

Psych-pop

I have been captured by this genre for a long time now, with bands like Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Tame Impala, Pond and GUM.

I wanted to visualise the retro futuristic vibes found in this music by using coloured gradients and super-fine strokes along with a metallic sphere as the cherry on top.
