Visual Artist / Designer / Creative Director for Sleek, Futuristic Electronic Music Brand

Job ID: 39711926

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I’m looking for a visual artist or designer to help shape the long-term visual identity of my music project, Kwench — an electronic act blending hard-hitting trap and bass music with cinematic depth and sleek futurism.

This is not a one-off gig; I’m seeking someone with creative range and shared aesthetic vision to build a consistent visual identity over time.

About the Brand – Kwench

Sound: Punchy, gritty, melodic, euphoric. A blend of trap, dubstep, and future bass. Comparable to artists like RL Grime, What So Not, San Holo, and Alison Wonderland.

Mood: Sleek, futuristic, dark-but-refined. A balance of grit and polish. The brand is surreal and a little glitchy, but never messy or cartoonish.

Textures: Flowing, melting, dripping, or distorted materials — think molten chrome, liquid metal, and cracked glass. Avoid obvious “water” gimmicks or cartoon-style goo.

Color palette: Violets/purples, accented with refined pink/orange glows or light reflections. Trippy but sleek. Asymmetrical, not chaotic.

Tone: A little surreal, but intentional. Cinematic. No overly horror or metal music tropes. It should feel otherworldly, fluid, and distinctive.
_____
Scope of Collaboration:

To start, I’d like to commission cover art (bonus for looping Spotify Canvas animation) for an upcoming single. If the collaboration goes well, I’m seeking an ongoing working relationship for:

Cover artwork for singles and future projects

Timeline/header graphics for Spotify, SoundCloud, Facebook, Instagram, etc.

Spotify Canvas animations

Touch-up or subtle enhancement of existing logo/wordmark

Cohesive design support across upcoming campaigns

Potential future visualizer or short-form video assets
_____
Preferred Skills and Tools:

Proficiency in 3D design tools (Blender, Octane, Cinema4D, etc.) is preferred

2D artists are welcome to apply if the tone and execution align — clean, sleek, and not cartoonish

Motion design experience for looping animations (Canvas) is a plus

Must have a strong sense of visual composition, contrast, and texture

Should be able to translate abstract creative direction into visually compelling concepts
_____
Budget:
$150–$400 depending on style, experience, scope, and skill fit

Basic 2D static cover art would fall toward the lower end

Detailed 3D renders and animated Spotify Canvas work would be toward the higher end
_____
What to Include in Your Application:

Link to your portfolio or relevant samples of work

Any prior experience working with musicians or music brands

A brief note on how you'd approach this brand direction

Preferred tools and motion experience (if any)
_____
Happy to provide style examples, visual references, and snippets of my music to give you a sense of the aesthetic.

Looking to build something uniquely fluid, dark, and sleek — not gimmicky, but striking and emotionally resonant. If that speaks to you, I’d love to talk.
