CLIENT: THE CD POOL, 1997-1999

Members of The CD Pool were DJs who received monthly CD samplers of forthcoming underground, club and street dance mixes. The service was funded by the hi-fi company Pioneer, who supplied clubs with the DJM 500, a professional mixing device.

With Club Beats - house and garage - and Street Beats - soul, swing, hip hop and r&b - already established, I was commissioned to devise the logo and graphic style for 'Underground Beats'. As the name suggests, this genre of dance music was much harder edged and alternative, a feel reflected in the confrontational and aggressive graphics.
