I can barely remember the last time I actually drew or designed a cover, instead of just using a photo with a logo. Maybe around ten years ago.

Usually, covers are supposed to show the title and the artist's name, but whenever I try that it just looks boring. So I've been sticking to only using the logo. To be honest, most covers these days look boring anyway. And it got even worse once people started making them with ChatGPT. You can tell right away, and it feels kind of cheap.

This time I wanted to make something fun. A cover you can look at for a bit longer and actually read. Some people might say "who even reads that stuff"? Well, that's exactly the point! I wrote it in Belarusian Latin, so only a few people could even read it. And maybe they'll smile, the same way I did when I came up with it. It would also be cool if someone from another country and culture decided to find out what's actually written here and what language it is! I like things like this, little puzzles. If I enjoy them, then someone else out there in the world will find them fun too 😁

Of course I should also add that more people from Australia or Indonesia listen to my music than from Belarus. Sometimes I think about that and it makes me a little sad. What do you even call it when you feel like you "don't care", but at the same time it still kind of hurts? Ah, whatever, screw it.

Here are some covers I made almost ten years ago (2015-2016). A bit naive in places, but fun to remember.
