I would like to share with you three CDs from my collection that have been a source of inspiration for the booklet I plan to make for the release of Symbállein.
I was given this CD by the one of the owners of Atlantis records in hackney when I was buying a small collection of CDs that he didn’t know were there. We got talking about what we like listening to and he told me about his label, then he presented this simple yet effective CD. He told me a bit about how they were made and that cost around £1.50 each to make, I could definitely learn a thing or two from him.
I really like the more robust build quality of this album. The materials and extra red sleeve make make opening this album feel premium and definitely add to the listening experience. However it lacks the personal element that I really like about the others.
This is one of the CDs I found in Atlantis records, I love the hand made feel of this one. It seems as if it was made with one A3 sheet of paper. I wonder if the same artist that made the music had drawn the pictures? I wonder how many copies of this project exist?
