Ok i am a fuckin shit in music but i like every BK albums, and i want to participate activelly on the new one.

So as i am not too bad in photoshop i will do a cover for the album with some friends that are in a art school.

Here is a first idea i had for Gehst noch (artist on BK rec), tell me your feedback:

Maybe you could replace the fly and draw a mecanical insect (like the FOTL logo) or maybee something like that..:wink: :wink: :wink:

Checkout the Italian poster for Escape From New York. So badass 8-) Dims could do something along these lines for sure.

find something new... :?

the cover is too assualt, too 50s.. the futuristic style that we know from prodigy myspace :? plus, its a theme we already saw in early releases. i saw the cover contestants for a fake prodigy album.. all guns and army stuff. fuck that

i say
do something thats experimental like the music, its not we want to be 'look at us, fuck you we are the soldiers of a long gone bigbeat era' it only limits us in our creativity... if it doesnt sound in your face and provoking its a shit track? what is the criteria for music from the jilted generation?

think.

what images do i get from hearing older mftjg volumes? soundwaves peaking the landscape of a sick dark world with all sorts of colors in it... not just camouflage, or red and black! a twisted view on a world with endless possibilities... strange creatures, wicked pointy clouds that seem to cut in the night sky which bleeds thunder and lightning in bright colors...

i would make it wide, make it epic. something so otherworldy its rejecting, yet so beautifully unusual it attracts the listener to the darker side. inviting, yet scary and mystical. just like the music. endless.

war is a theme which only limits you in the style. we are the creators of the fucking new underground music... there is no war unless you start one, right? we should be the one creating, not instigating...its a sign of weakness to have a certain cover style thats already done.

oh well. just my opinion. hope you people dont mind me talking like this... im new, i know but i just wanted to let you people know :)

u know fiddles damn your right in my opinion, we shouldn't be prodigy wanna be's cause there aint gonna be another prodigy. we should do our own style and do our own things, i think this version of Jilted should be unique, we can't say its unique because its a prodigy style.

if we make music they should be our own style, not attempted prodigy style and the same goes for the album cover, we shouldn't do all this 50's sci fi stuff because the prodigy done it, we should come up with somthing better i say.

i agree with fiddles 100%

Well reading the reactions I can't but agree 100% with both Fiddles and Cogglesz :shock:

Don't limit yourself musically and in terms of style. We are unique, not a rip of or copy or trend followers! (at least the music makers :lol: )

Wish I could pitch in...I saw my name get mentioned a few times...I am really busy working on art for BROKE Recordings (The Autobots)....and also a comic based on a Trickster legend....

Otherwise I would try to contribute something.

Hopefully by next year I will have Reason, and can contribute some tuneage and art combined.

Ummmmm....guys?

As cool as that artwork is, it's too similar to the recent Prodge themes. The rules that BK laid out for the contest should extend to the cover design as well:

Quote:
:: No remixes, samples, covers, nothing Prodigy related please

So in my opinion it's good to think outside the circle and maybe consider something more original.

I can help out with this now, too.

i aint got a cover for you guys cuz im shit at them (myspace looks proove it lol) but i have a suggestion if it could help anyone wanting somthing a bit original but unique and simple at the same time. it doesn't need to be pure photoshop stuff, get out and take pictures then take it back to the photoshop lab.
