East Ghost West Ghost
Rob Christiansen is a musical mad scientist. No doubt about it. You may know his work with Eggs, Grenadine, Sisterhood of Convoluted Thinkers or as a producer or engineer of hundreds of insanely aaaaamazing records. For his instrumental project, under the East Ghost West Ghost moniker, I kept going back to the literal image of two ghosts pulling knives and guns on one another. The name is just that good. Luckily I finally had the good sense to realize that the name was in fact so good that it certainly didn’t need that sort of help. Instead, I began to focus on opposing sides ultimately coming together in something unique. The music kept drawing out racing images for me, darting all about.
One disassembled bike later, I had the photos I needed to work a little magic. Sticking to two colors, you can see the press sheet above with the clean cover and spines and layered funky back – just like the work inside it.
