Cover Artwork By MACHINE
Our friend Nalden uploaded the entire cover art catalogue by Amsterdam based design team MACHINE. The gallery counts 151 covers and most of them have been made for Dutch record label Kindred Spirits. Next to Hotel and Parra, MACHINE played a big role in contributing album cover artwork on a national and international level. Artists like Rich Medina, Carl Craig, Jneiro Jarel, Kid Sublime, Dorian Concept and Recloose, have been fortunate to get a MACHINE cover.

MACHINE
Over the last decade, from the dusk of the old millennium to the dawn of the new one, Amsterdam-based design collective MACHINE has added a significant new chapter to the already rich heritage of innovative design originating from the Netherlands. Before electronic music, live video projection, instant global reach and interactive means entered mainstream, they were the first generation of designers (first under the name DEPT) to fully adopt and adapt to this different reality and blast a trail in their own distinctly idiosyncratic way. Fuelled by earlier teenage exploits into graffiti and comics, then traditionally trained in graphic design at the Rietveld Academy, the discipline in their hands, hearts and mind knows no boundaries and effortlessly crosses over from the printed page to motion, sound and art installation, from the hand drawn letter to the steaming nightclub with thousands of ecstatic bodies.
