Research - Analysis of Digipaks

Below I have scanned in the panels of three digipaks of artists that I feel relate to either our genre or audience, before printing them out and annotating them.

Kate Nash

Bat For Lashes

Lissie

I chose the first two digipaks - from Kate Nash and Bat For Lashes - because they are both by female British artists that have some form of alternative influence in their music, just like Florence and the Machine, and all three can be classified as 'indie pop'. Lissie, whilst having alternative influences, is much more of a folk-rock/country artist. However, I chose her digipak as I feel it's exterior is a great example that could influence my own design (although I'm not feeling the two blank panels on the inside). Lissie also shares somewhat of a similar audience to Florence, which I've deduced from Last.fm calculating that they have a 'medium similarity'. As I explained in a previous blog post, this is based on the site's users' listening preferences, and so this means that a substantial number of people who listen to Florence and the Machine also listen to Lissie.
