It's no surprise that Frida once went indie rock or industrial rock with Kvinnor som springer. now, the indie rock has absorbed her... fictionally! ("Tango i det gröna", just to be time period accurate for my preference) |

Loved making these ABBA Who DVD covers!!!
   Great concept, inconsistent and imbalanced template, if seen closely, especially on the Gimme x3 and Super Trouper DVD mockup. The DVD and ABBA logo seems to go sparsely, enlarged and/or spread further than necessary, and is outside the template's variables, what constitutes which one is the spine and which one is the front cover. If the creme text is placed on a white background, it must have a shadow beneath it to rectify the conflict between the two white objects. But fear not, that can be solved through a careful research of common DVD/Blu-Ray templates from manufacture websites, I believe. Mind you, what raster image editing program are you using, Alex? |

 A homage to Deutsche Grammophon and Benny Andersson himself (fake description) You'd have 50 hours of Björn Ulvaeus reading his lyrics he made during his time with the Hootenanny Singers, ABBA, Gemini, and his partnership with Benny Andersson in the likes of Kristina, Chess, and more. That's right, 50 hours, and he can cram that up for a CD, vinyl, cassette tapes (for the hipsters), a 5 terabyte USB hard drive saved in full WAV, and a reel to reel tape. Comes with 10 sets of vinyl, don't miss out on the limited edition of "Björn Ulvaeus - Poetry" from Deutsche Grammophon! Your local music store won't hesitate for your refund if you wish Björn to sing instead of reading monotonously as if he was lecturing to university students. (Also recorded on tape for better preservation and better understanding for future generations.) |

You may find yourself... in part of another world where ABBA is post-punk yet still retaining its classical compositions

Apparently it turned out to a seamless blend than I expected... but the typeface leaves a lot to be desired, though it comes across the idea alright.  |

 Of course, if a record label want to reissue her Snow White song to the digital realm... there's always designs like this that are FRESH.  And another possibility of ABBA the Album's album artwork crossover...  |

 Seems like yesterday when I came here. A quickie and more of practice here and the design seems cleaner. I couldn't resist reusing "Frida" as an album name, perhaps it may be that it's simple and consistent with my taste for 1970s aesthetics - to be fair, the original album cover was an allusion to Pearl... (if it don't have a person, it's not in the idea for art directors when designing covers for pop artists...) but it could work as a visual piece alone, it would be rather "flat" but I find it interesting because it blends in popular culture with underground culture... but oh well |

Regarding the DVD's, "Fernando, GGG and ST, I am curious why KMKY is omitted from the " Fernando " DVD. " Chiquitita from the GGG DVD. Likewise, TWTIA and OLS from the ST DVD. Please can you explain your reasons for excluding these songs from your tracklists. Please do not take offence but I don't understand your choices.

How have I missed this topic?! Great fun.
Be warned, though. I am thinking of giving it a go. 😳

Please can you explain your reasons for excluding these songs from your tracklists. Please do not take offence but I don't understand your choices. I decided to include songs that were used as a B-Side for the focused song from around the world as a “special feature”. For example, I included Rock Me as it was the B-Side to Fernando in America, Canada and Jamaica. Hasta Manana was also the B-Side to Fernando in El Salvador. Knowing Me Knowing You wasn’t a B-Side which is why I didn’t include it. I haven’t gotten round to doing other DVD covers for other songs yet as they take quite some time to do but I have done these. The first image is in the style of the Beginning boxset which consists of the first three Doctor Who episodes if you’re wondering.

Thanks for that. Point taken. I am sorry if I appeared to be a little rude.Keep up the good work. I wish I had artistic skills like yourself.

A bit of Space Odyssey, a bit of Miracle, and a bit of Dune, and a bit of low budget sci fi TV miniseries vibe to couple with this strange and quick fan album art based on other designs... They missed the opportunity to do this LOL  |

Never been a great fan of the live album cover art... Don't understand why they didn't use the ABBA lights stage logo... I've always like very much the picture they choose for the cover of The Official Photobook  |
