Album Ideas and Update

Hey again,


Alex and I have been discussing ideas for an album, including shots to use for the covers, as well as names we can use for actual songs as well as the album. In terms of pictures, Alex mocked up some sketches that we could use for our website or our album, we're still deciding upon that. But here they are:


The top image we've discussed as being our main image for the website, which I described in a previous blog post - as we took inspiration from Pet Shop Boys to adopt a similar style. In terms of recognising our audience, we've tried to create a more modern, geeky twist to music to relate to a new genre/group of music lovers - as we've realised a certain gap in cool, geeky but modern artists. In today's market artists are quite serious, pop artists that are more of a brand than an song writer. Such as Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift.


As for progress, currently Alex and I are using Wix.com to create a website, we're also still in stages of shot lists, logo/album designing and other small tasks. Within the next week or so we hope to have completed designing our website, and personally I hope to have completed all audience tasks and at least finish Institution and start Academic Theories.


Alex has also been working tirelessly at home to create designs we've discussed when planning album covers. As our band name is 'Apollo AD' we thought about naming our first album 'Lift Off' to signify our blast into the music-sphere. The pictures will be posted as soon as I save them and upload them.
