btw who did the artwork for mir?

A guy called Daniel Philosoph. He’s a young artist from Israel who emailed me out of the blue last year to say he liked my music and would listen to it while drawing.

With that email he sent me some of his artwork and I was so amazed by it I asked if he would design me a cover and that’s what he did. It’s all done with pencil.

I love it - it is exactly how the music ‘looks’ to me inside my head. I think he’s going to be very famous one day.

Thanks for the reply, Mr. Ott!
It’s great how you found that guy, or how he found you. Perfect match. (:
I perceive the artwork like you pointed out: it looks exactly like your music. totally unique (at least to my eyes and ears ) and it catches the vibe from your music.

so, how about the vinyl? i read on the forum that you announced it on facebook, but i dont do facebook and i don’t want to miss any news on the subject.

I’m going to be setting up a Pledge Music page for a vinyl release of ‘Mir’. If I get enough people genuinely interested I’ll do it.

I’d like one if only to see the artwork at 12” x 12”.

Can I please give you another one of those ‘man hugs’?

I promise I’ll pledge, too   Though I’m just getting into your artmusicwork, I’m liking every minute of it (no surpise)

No eye-contact and a respectful distance between man-parts please. Two pats maximum.

As long as the Cassette is a BASF metal tape so I can hold the tape recorder up to the hifi and record it straight from the speaker. And at the same time trying to remain quiet and hope my mother doesn’t walk in as say your T’s ready..

Oh if only I could find all my “Top 40 recorded off the radio speaker” tapes from the 1970s…

excellent! and while you’re at it: how about some high quality prints or merchandise stuff like posters or t-shirts?

yup, i’m sure it’ll look great framed on the wall and alongside the shpongle vinyls.

thanks for the wonderful music Ott. Mir’s been on repeat since it was released.

You’re very welcome.
