Concept

Fogo Farto is an experinmental electronic music label based in Porto. Their releases heavily lean in the use of sampling, reporposing these echoes of the past to create new textures and athmospheres.

I took inspiration from medieval decoration to evoque this appreciation of the past, mainly from the fusion of Celtic and Christian aesthetics found, for example, in the 'Book of Kells'.

Regarding typography, I've explored uncial lettering, a writing style used around ath to 8th centuries AD. This style is faithfully replicated by the font 'Vinque', that is used used for the logo and lettering of the brand.

Fogo Farto releases albuns recorded on cassette tapes, so I design a special compilation case with the label aesthetic, containing 3 of their releases. All the decorative elements were drawn using Procreate.

For the advertisement I illustrated a series of promotional images on Procreate, mixing antique and fantastical elements with more modern pieces of music technology, mirrowing the label's process of reimagining and revisiting older sounds through sampling.
