Tempa.

Through my research i found this re-brand and product development. Tempa. is a dubstep and garage record label run by Ammunition Promotions. The label was established in 2000 and saw a re-brand in 2006. I took these examples as this is what i feel my client is after, he wants an identity which is solid, heavy and bold.
Although the example below is a re-brand for a record label not an artist, the same design principles apply. The genre of music Tempa. caters for is simular to that of Shammix. Looking at these high end print vinyls and how the logo can be adjusted to work with the print techniques i feel confident in the direction i wish to take this brief.
However i feel before i rattle my design down to a final 2 or 3, i need to do more research to look into existing identities for artists and labels alike.
