| Notes | Kitchen got in touch after we published our post about Trumn Records’ Yui Odonera and Tamaru which they art-directed. This is the first of two posts covering their initial releases which are in a rather wonderful accordion design. Two thick pieces of card provide the outer sides and are held together by a length of folded-over paper. Resonant images abound: sunsets, hazy evenings, sunlight sparkling on water, but who are the two girls looking out across the water and who is the little boy along on the grass bank? The CDs are held in paper wallets tucked into the accordion package. The only textual information – apart from the information sheet and the CD envelope – is spied in small type at the bottom of the rear cover. All in all, this is a highly original and memorable design.
