The names are just in alphaorder, to be rearranged and with tracknames added.

Take a look:

This is just a start and obviously the real version will be better than this jpeg screenshot. Feel free to comment/critique, either here or PM me your ideas.

Cheers,
Holden

I quite like it

And mine'll be under the name Grandbrother rather than Sean.

Nice direction on the album design.

My alias is A Gator Got Her.

Everyone don't forget to write a small biography and include a picture

I don't know who to send it too yet, who's providing webspace?

artwork looks cool. Would like to see the typography fit a bit more with the graphics, rather than just being slapped on with a dropshadow though

Hah! The typography was actually done first, then i slapped on the graphics!
Thanks for the feedback, i'll work on integrating them.

[COLOR=blue]EDIT:[/COLOR]
i've changed the names as requested and have messed around with layered text, in the spirit of Dubnobasswithmyheadman. i enjoy layerng it to the point of abstraction so you have a gradation from solid color to just a few wispy words.
Still a work in progress, and the text looks crappy in the jpeg, but i assure you it's readible!

We have almost finished our track.
Its turned into a bit of a tech monster, with a dirty rolling bassline and interesting female spoken word over the top.
We road tested it live last week and it was well recieved.
A few tweaks and it should be ready to roll out

my artist name is "lucid rhythms", by the way.

Names sorted, including my own (holden=Avid)! Like a dummy, i just copied and pasted the original list of names from these boards, forgetting that people might have preferred production names. Anyone else want a change?

Here's artwork, version 3:

How will we go about submitting our tracks and bios? Email?
