Ode Records releases experimental music on vinyl. The identity is built around a single rotating mark that slows down, speeds up and loops with each release.

Every record gets its own short loop for social, streaming platforms and the shop screen, all generated from the same motion system.

Detail

The mark rotates at 33⅓ rpm. Everything else in the system is timed to that rhythm.
