Lowtide releases jazz and ambient records in editions of five hundred, most of them recorded in small rooms.

We set up a sleeve system built on one grid and one typeface, and photographed the musicians where they play, so each record changes its picture and nothing else.

Twelve releases have used the system so far.

Twelve records, one grid and still no two sleeves alike.

Sessions were shot in low, warm light: a single lamp, or the sun through the studio window.
