VINYL RECORDS IN DUBAI From Tame Impala’s vortex shedding visual identity to Grimes’ grotesque Art Angel creature to the kaleidoscope of colours for Jamie XX’s celebrated debut album, cover art remains a crucially emotive force in how we place music. But the glory of vinyl lies in its luxurious three dimensionality. Nothing quite matches that large, square, blank canvas, whether it’s a gatefold LP or a 7” or some space in-between. For that reason, our definition of artwork runs broader than sleeve image: we’re judging the entire package here.
