Brown feels more cohesive here.
From a product/UX perspective, the softer background keeps attention on the content rather than competing with it.
Red is visually striking, but it subtly shifts hierarchy toward the container instead of the information.
Brown supports readability +...
Red feels right. It adds warmth and connects well with the analog, vinyl vibe of the project. If contrast stays strong and the work remains the focus, I’d keep it.
I love this approach Jasmijn! The brown background feels warmer and more inviting - it complements those beautiful warm wood tones in the product photography. The red is striking but feels a bit more aggressive. For a classics/music brand, brown creates the right sophisticated vintage vibe.
Red one would look good with slight changes in colours
The color contrast works better in the brown bg
