Oberton
Innovative music production company OBERTON, offering services such as music strategy, composition, and live arrangements, is the umbrella company for three independent social music projects: RE, Music Meetq, and Ayl Tegh.
Inspired by the meaning of OBERTON (German for “overtone”), any frequency greater than the fundamental frequency of a sound, the logo visualizes the letter N as a sound wave, and communicates the company’s bold identity.
We chose to create separate visual systems for OBERTON and the projects they support. For OBERTON, we played on the overall ideas behind music production, mainly sound. The wave becomes a part of the logo but also a symbol that can be used as a frame, or transformed in animation. For the secondary projects, we designed separate mission-specific visual systems.

Ayl Tegh, a project under OBERTON, is Armenian for “another place”. It’s a series of secret shows, happening with unannounced musicians, and at locations uncommon for such events.
