• Record sleeve - mokum

    ‘Mokum’ was the first album I did for Amsterdam Klezmer Band. They wanted to give their fans a present and explained to me that although they were called the ‘Amsterdam Klezmer Band’ not everybody considers them to be ‘Klezmer’. They aim for the genre to be alive, and therefor mix it with other types of music and so I thought of this ‘devil in a box’ cover.

    I asked them to give me their back stage passes from over the years to make a chain for the little devil and i used more of those on the inside design. I have to say i really like it that purists don’t find them ‘Klezmer’ enough – they are very interesting musicians and very interesting individuals as well.  I feel lucky I was asked for all their covers ever after this little devil.

  • Poster - akb 15 jaar

    This was part of my first assignment for Amsterdam Klezmer Band, They were together and on the road for 15 years and wanted to give their fans a present. So they recorded live versions of the songs they voted to like most and i designed a key image, the album and the posters. i asked them for the stage passes they had saved up in a big pot over the years and used that as a necklace for the devil jumping from the box. There are some secrets hidden in the design, so i wont tell them here.

  • identity item - Mokum Flyer

    Fat chance you’ve seen this somewhere in Amsterdam. We had flyers and stickers printed with this design and some of the band members have a background in the graffiti scene.
