Liner Notes

“Too Many Days Without” was recorded internationally in Prague, Istanbul and Los Angeles. The 7 song album includes the single “Star Sixty Nine”, co-produced by four-time Grammy Award winning engineer Seth Atkins Horan.

I relish working with J.Ramada because we think the same way (most of the time). We’re both perfectionists. If a pixel is out of place, we’ll find it. Fine detail that most mortals would never notice becomes a topic of discussion, a flurry of redesign proofs, more discussion, and ultimately an approval.

The “Two Many Days Without” project is a great example. The design started with a photo taken outside the doorway of an iconic Airstream trailer, positioned in a secluded overnight parking lot at the Coachella Music Festival. A few years later the image was selected to create the album cover design. I incorporated some design elements from one of J.Ramada’s earlier websites and we were off to the races.

The artist is very selective about his product’s visual impact. All images are hand selected. Fonts are carefully chosen. Renderings and proofs are abundant.

The project consists of the main album design, comprised of six panels (three inner panels and three outer panels), artwork printed directly on the CD, and an eight panel lyric booklet.
