Re-covered Vinyl
Nicolay Saveliev, NYC-based designer, is responsible for a series of album covers called Pop Matters…
From his site…
Vinyl record sleeves with 2-sided insert featuring faux-academic material on pop music and the state of the record industry, seeded with promotional material for indie radio stations. Sponsored by Brown Student Radio. Snuck onto used& new record store shelves. 140 Copies Total.
Purists may draw a line between design and printmaking but I think it’s a shakey line at best. I love the minimalism of Saveliev’s design applied to the frivolity of pop music- it’s a complete contradiction. The duotone of black and neutral color reminiscent of copy paper is subtle but dynamic. They look like prints to me.
