🚀 Background

I first encountered Alexander in Brooklyn's underground music scene when he was remixing ‘Scumdolly – Making Ends Meet’ for Blkmarket Music label. At the same time, he was working on his own four track vinyl record for his label ERRANT Recordings Inc. I soon joined him to become part of his vision.

💭 Concept

As part of my discovery phase, I studied the illusion of time within space and how artists have used it in the past to describe it visually. His only request at the time was to use one of the paintings by the artist Pablo Carpio, as shown below.

👓 Title

I spent days doing research and asking around for a minimal sans serif font family that captures a melting abstraction yet also captures the style of artist Pablo Carpio’s paintings.
