Overground is a record label based in Berlin. The project name and concept stem from breaking the established norms of the underground music scene, aiming to set themselves apart from the commercial aspects of the industry by maintaining a sense of mysticism in their productions and staying true to their musical roots. The project had an existing brand presence that lacked authenticity and failed to represent the project’s vision. Their visual identity relied on borrowed designs found online, resulting in inconsistency and a disconnect with their mission.
