CD Project

So this is my (possibly still up for change) mix-tape list. Yes, I have various duplicates of bands throughout the list, but that's only because I typically don't listen to a huge variety of music at a time; and so when I was starting this project, the artists that first popped into my head were ones I had been listening to. Now, anyone who knows me even the slightest will know that I am an extreme Panic! at the Disco fan, and I tried, very very hard not to put them in a third time. But as it goes, I feel like these songs will work out nicely for my work. My theme is kind of a mesh of all these bands in a city-like theme. So I figured songs that fit more of a dancey, even debauchery-like city feel would work best. The artwork I created reflects this, and as much as I love the city myself. I've always had this feeling of the city being the more 'corrupted' areas of civilization, and so my mix-tape is more or less a commentary on that. The tape is set up to be played from beginning to end, 
This was an image I took in New York city a few years ago. This has become the basis for my front cover.
As you can see here...
Another image I took in New York, this has become part of the inside of my album.

 The inner right artwork for my album.
 These images were taken at my house on a beautiful evening, with a finely adjusted aperture. These became the basis for the manipulated clouds you may see behind the also manipulated buildings that form a majority of my albums artwork.






And that's all I have done at the moment. Haven't determined how I plan to go about the last part, the back cover (I am doing a standard bi-fold).
