2011 saw the much heralded return of Sasha's label Emfire, under the new guise of 'Last Night on Earth', with a host of well received releases from the likes of James Teej, Max Cooper, My Favourite Robot and of course Sasha himself. We all know from our article on the artwork behind club parties and releases that often the design that goes into this is as important as the music or lineups itself - aiding to convey whatever message it is the artist and musician see. Sasha released the artwork for the six upcoming releases, which you can see below, and it 'was designed to capture a more sensitive side of dance music, a stark contrast to the relentless beats that inspire pandemonium on so many dancefloors'... so they say.
You can listen to Simon Baker's latest EP - Hideout - out now on Last Night on Earth below.
Clearly of an entirely unique style not often seen on this format, Sasha and his team are offering you a chance to get involved and bring your creative eye into the mix. Details below.
In celebration of this new direction of art, Sasha is inviting aspiring designers to submit their best artwork, as inspired by the covers released for his eight latest singles. One winner will have their design adapted to be used for the next eight releases on the label. Including vinyl with full sleeve design, that will be sold through Last Night on Earth's online store as well as various other outlets.
