There are 2 main types of music festivals that I go to: all-genre festivals (Lollapalooza, Governor's Ball, etc) and EDM festivals (Electric Daisy Carnival, Electric Zoo, you get it). After spending so much time on different festival websites, I've noticed something interesting. Here's the lineup site for Governor's Ball:
And here's the lineup site for Moonrise, an electronic music festival that I have no intention of attending yet seriously why am I at this website like twice a week?
Do you see the difference? One has the artist names listed in the same font, and the other has actual logos!
This isn't the case 100% of the time, but what I realized was that I almost never see a non-EDM artist listed using their logo, but this happens a lot more often when it involves DJs. Why? I have no idea. And frankly I don't care. Because the point of this discussion is that I've decided that I want a logo. For me. Not for my DJ alter ego (though I wish I had one), just for the name "Arielle."
That would be awesome, right? To have your own badass logo and any time you signed an email or really put your name anywhere you could just have that logo appear instead. Why have I never thought of this before as something totally logical that I really want in life? It's probably the second best idea I ever had, right after making it a goal to marry someone with my last name.
If any of you are so graphic-designly inclined, I would like to request that when I turn 31 this October you create for me a sweet DJ logo. In return you will have my eternal gratitude. I can also throw in a hug and a lollipop. And a beer!
Until then, I suppose just a regular font will have to do. For now, peace out!
