Having worked on covers for the likes of The 1975, Disclosure, Diplo and others, designer Samuel Burgess-Johnson looks on course to usher in a new era of classic album art. After highlighting his design process in our very own HYPEBEAST Magazine Issue 8, here HYPETRAK tapped the creative to curate a mix of his favorite recent tracks. The playlist is a rather lo-fi affair, a selection of dramatic electronic and haunting acoustic songs that pair perfectly with grey autumn days – songs by PARTYNEXTDOOR and Saint Pepsi aptly set the tone. Enter the mind of this shining artist with the selection of mellow songs above. As always, be sure to check HYPETRAK for the latest music from Burgess-Johnson’s top picks and other favorites.
