Future Classic: Recomposed

Future Classic: Recomposed is an audio-visual project that reimagines eight standout songs from the label's catalog as ambient and classical compositions. Future Classic is an award-winning independent music label, artist management team, and touring agency with offices in LA and Sydney. The project encompasses a visual campaign that offers both still and animated images for each song, capturing the essence of the recomposition concept. The visual side of the project is conceived as both a social and branding initiative, encompassing a wide range of assets and applications. At its core is a collectible double gatefold vinyl, with printed inner sleeves. Available on all good listening platforms.

Growing up, I spent hours at my mum's record player, captivated by the vinyls. The turntable's spin and the delicate dance of the needle fascinated me. I cherished the moment of sliding a record from its sleeve, always mindful of my mum's warnings about the fragility of the vinyl and needle. The LP's sleeves, often featuring gatefolds or foldouts, captivated me and were instrumental in sparking my love for the physical aspects of music. This sentiment inspired my approach to this project.

For the release of Josh Hooke's latest album, a new visual identity was developed to capture the intensity and energy of his performances. The goal was to create a brand that is accessible, bold, and understated, reflecting the contrast between Josh’s calm demeanor off stage and the emotional intensity, flamboyance, and passion of his performances. Reflecting the three artists, the rule of thirds served as a guiding principle for all design choices throughout the campaign.

Additionally, a comprehensive branding guideline was developed for venues and media, ensuring consistent and effective representation of Josh’s brand across all platforms.

This case study documents audio work developed with YouTube Creative Studio as part of YouTube’s recent rebrand. Across two engagements, I worked on the sonic layer surrounding the rebrand, spanning early exploration and final delivery. This included testing how a unified audio system might live across different parts of the platform, alongside leading the complete audio production for the official rebrand case study film.

A key focus was exploring how a flexible, scalable audio system could support a global product ecosystem, allowing for consistency while adapting to different contexts and formats.

The work brings together composition, sound design, and voice direction, delivered end to end in collaboration with YouTube’s brand, motion, and production teams. The aim was a cohesive, emotionally legible audio world that feels alive and dynamic, shaped by YouTube’s layered content culture.

Commissioned by 823 Records and creative agency Pretty–Soon®, I created the visual language for the compilation All Things Considered, a collaborative series of curated compilations. The project features a full social media campaign, vinyl product, and an extensive list of still and motion content including single artworks, visualisers, posters, Spotify Canvases and more.

The brief from Pretty–Soon® requested a product that was both vibrant and modern. To meet this, I employed an experimental AI technique, creating layers upon layers of video content and overlapping them. Stills were extracted from the motion elements, scaled up, and layered again. This process was repeated multiple times to craft the final textures.

 

EMPTY MAPS

Empty Maps is an audio-visual project built around a 13-track piano record. At its centre is a 180g vinyl — a keystone object that carries both the music and the story. The album explores themes of connection, isolation, and family lineage, using piano as a way to communicate when language fell short.

Each track is a chapter in a broader narrative, tracing a personal shift from one version of self to another. This extends into the visual design: a cover made from layered family artifacts, scanned documents, and personal fragments arranged in chaotic form, contrasted by an insert that brings those same elements into quiet alignment.

Together, the sound and visuals create a dialogue — between past and present, disorder and clarity — quietly marking a sense of before and after.
