album cover redesign

Nass El Ghiwane (Arabic: ناس الغيوان‎) are a musical group established in 1970 in Casablanca, Morocco. The group, which originated in avant-garde political theater, has played an influential role in Moroccan chaabi (or shaabi).Nass El Ghiwane were the first band to introduce Western instruments like the modern banjo. Their music incorporates a trance aesthetic, reflecting the influence of local Gnawa music.Their music is inspired by ancient North African Sufi poetry, most prominently that of Abderrahman El Majdoub, whose work was a direct inspiration to the band. They are also credited for helping bring a new social movement to Morocco.

this was a fun little personal project I did cause first I love this band and their music and wanted to make something for them, and second because I'm starting to get into album covers design and wanted something fun to practice with.
