The album is called two-shade and this is represented in different ways. For example the lettering “two-shade” is in two- different shades of orange, but also the images are in black and white with a sepia tint which compliments the orange font. For the lettering there are only three colours, and the reason for the white is to make it stand out and make it clearer to read. The images fade out into black and this gives it a mysterious appearance which is slightly entropic as you would expect a digipak for a jazz artist/band to have brighter colours, and an overall a happier appearance. The mysterious or saddening appearance could be an insight into what the music genre is for this particular album or it could be completely irrelevant.
The tracks are featured on the back of the album which is redundant for any music genres, s is the inside booklet with its “many thanks” pages. This album doesn’t just contain one artist it also features a drummer and a bass player, but these musicians do not feature on the front cover but are featured on pages inside the booklet.
Throughout the digipak capital letters aren’t used in any of the main text, not even for the artists name, this could link to the image on the cover as if the music is very emotional as if the artist doesn’t feel important or is going through a stage of depression where he doesn’t feel his name or album deserve capital letters, or it could simply be a design feature, as maybe the capital letters didn’t look good or fit in with the layout design of the digipak.
