So you have the most brilliant idea for your next music video yet you cannot execute it because you only have a few dollars left in your pocket after recording your first album. But you also know the value of a kick-ass music video- that it could leverage your career faster than you can say […]
I can imagine purists rolling their eyes when they read the title of this post but what the heck: for me, image is important. Of course music should be the number one priority of musicians but they should also learn how to market their music effectively. There are so many bands I know who play […]
To be honest, I’m not too ecstatic to find out the winners for the 2010 Grammy Awards …particularly in the album cover category. If I were to describe the nominees in a word it would be… UNEXCEPTIONAL. Last year, I had a tough time choosing only one winner because the 2009 Grammy nominees were all […]
We here at Unified just love the word NEW. “New” generally means that something is freshly made. A new CD, a new gadget, a new pair of shoes. It also means that something has changed -a new outlook, a new plan, a new purpose. New means freshness and hope and a new chance to become […]

Identify which ones you like and which ones you find ridiculous. Well I kinda like most of them because they look ridiculous. I mean, if you’re see […]
Designed at Real World by Marc Bessant, this ‘scratch my back Collector’s Edition’ is presented in a rigid, full colour and gloss laminated lift off lid box. The cryptic image on the album cover is actually a micrograph of two red blood cells folding over each other, or, depending on the point of view, colliding […]
Here is one of the sickest CD artwork I’ve seen in my entire lifetime! In fact, it’s so sick it becomes a work of art. I like the sweet pastel colors and how they complement to the overall theme. Designer Trevor Brown is an English artist from London presently living in Japan whose work explores […]
You’re soooo busy promoting your band online- in fact you’ve been doing it 5 hours a day for 5 months now. You have signed-up to all the music-related sites you know MySpace, YouTube, Sonic bids, Kickstarter, Spotify, Playlist.com, the list goes on and on.
