Making a logo was quite simple, because my idea for the logo was so simple in itself. I wanted some minimal art, accompanied by the name as is necessary. I chose the simple art of a record and picked red for the colour. This is because i personally associate soul music with warm colours and thought this would be most appropriate. I then decided that the dark colour I had originally chosen, just for simplicity's sake, was not meshing well with the art. Then I decided to change the colour of the text to the other extreme - white. Although it's not clear here, the background is transparent and in my opinion, looks quite similar to professional logos.
The only thing that still bothered me was the colour of the record which needed a darker tone to balance the white text.
There are a few things I would like to do but unfortunately can't, for various reasons. I would like better art, I had to use the art that was offered and it looks amateur-ish for my taste. The other thing is that because the logo is so simple, I would prefer that the font of the text be original, something that stands out but unfortunately, I'm not a graphic designer and don't have much experience in that.
