OBD, Return To The 36 Chambers
I came across this the other day and felt it only right to share. Artist Logan Walters took on the task of redesigning some classic W-Tang Artwork and giving it the Blue Note Records feel. Peep the words from the man himself…
A little while ago I put a bunch of Wu-Tang (both group and solo) albums on my computer. 21 of them, in fact. I inherited some mild OCD from my mom, and as anyone who has seen my iTunes can attest to, it manifests itself in weird ways. I need to have decent-quality album art for every album on my computer, which currently equals over 90 gigs. The problem was that almost all of the Wu-Tang album art was horrible (ODB’s two albums being the only real exceptions) — no offense to the original designers, but as iconic as they might be they’re looking pretty dated these days. So, armed with inspiration from what Olly Moss and others are doing (as written about by me here, and later by Kottke here) and a book of Blue Note Records covers, I set out to remake all 21.
Check out all the artwork here or check out a few more designs after the jump…
