CD Cover Design Brief

The cover has five parts, each one has obligatory features:

I. Main cover

1. Title: Soothing Piano I.
2. Artist: Sunlight Quartet
3. Design image*

* The main design motive can be something that suggests the number 4 (quartet), the sun (sunlight, sun rays), music, piano, notes, nature… Can, but doesn’t have to be one or more of these. But it should represent what the title says.
* I prefer zen-like, minimalist solutions.
* NO stock images, please! Except for unrecognizable parts of something.

II. Cover inside

1. Track list (18 songs) with durations
2. All songs written by Akos Galantai
3. Copyright Akosmusic 2016.
4. Design image

III. Disc

1. Artist: Sunlight Quartet
2. Title: Soothing Piano I.
3. All songs written by Akos Galantai (round on the edge)
4. Copyright Akosmusic 2016. (round on the edge)
5. www.akosmusic.com (round on the edge)

IV. Cover back

1. Track list (same as cover inside)
2. All songs written by Akos Galantai
3. Copyright Akosmusic 2016.
4. www.akosmusic.com
5. design image (optional)
6. The paper of this page is longer than the main cover, because it is to be turned up when put in the CD case, and there is the saddle with the name of the Artist and Title of the album. On both ends.

V. Under the disc

1. No words, only some design feature.

Important:
The main cover I need in RGB and also CMYK, all the others only CMYK.
I need the work file (cdr, ai or whatever you use)
I need the CMYK images prepared for printing (sizes set, and that little extra on the edges).
I need the RGB main cover cover in jpeg, 3000x3000 pixels.
That's all. :)

The most important of these all is of course the main cover RGB. Do this one first!

Here’s a sample to listen, it might inspire you:

If you take a closer look at my website, you can see the whole concept.

Good luck and enjoy!

Akos
