Designed by Droog and hand-crafted by The Vinyl Factory, Tensnake Live + album by Hamburg-based electronic music artist Tensnake has been released in a limited edition of 1000.
Responding to Tensnake’s layered approach to producing music and his love of African pattern motifs, the design features a series of artworks of superimposed found African patterns. The outer cover has been cut and folded to into a geometric pattern based on the idea of reptile skin scales. Just as a reptile’s scaled skin allows bright skin to be concealed beneath the scales, the white cover offers only a glimpse of its blue underside and the artwork selected by the user beneath it. Droog translated the strong geometry of the album into a design of Tensnake’s logo, featured for the first time on this album.
