Marlowe - Testcard - Roja

Marlowe

Debut EP - 'It's turning me on'

  • Sketch of a female, looking downwards at a mirror putting on lipstick.
  • Male solo artist. 
  • Album is red with black outline of the woman, linking to the tittle 'it's turning me on'.
  • Red is sensuous, and holds sexual connotations. 
  • She is revealing her leg, slightly above the knee.
  • White typography which stands out, meaning the name of the artist is important - name of the EP is smaller. 

Debut Album - 'Darksparklecorner'
  • High exposure on young boy's face, handing the fact he looks fearful.
  • He comforts himself with layers of blankets, protecting him from the light. 
  • Low budget bed and blanket - 90's or 00's because of the colours and design.
Second Album - 'a day in July'
  • Juxtaposes last album cover - three asian children looking over mountains.
  • White typography on red background linking with first album cover as well as same font.
  • Sunny day (pathetic fallacy?)
  • One child looks at camera, whilst the others sit down observing.
  • Young children used again, linking to the second album, adding a youthful element to his music. 
Third Album - 'deep breathe fake air'
  • Computer generated, showing inside of a mans respiratory system - more contemporary and artistic
  • Black typography for name - white for name of the album, still using lower case as he has through all of his covers.
  • Organic artist.

Testcard

Debut album - 'Lines'
  • Uses capitol letters, changed colour palette to neutral - more dull
  • morse code? - electronic

Roja

Deubut album - 'Promises I should have kept' 
  • Spanish and Mexican imagery - folk music?
  • red typography - roja translates as red in spanish 
  • Spanish woman, with a lasso on a horse.
  • Woman seems slightly masculine as she has big black curly hair.
