Taste Test
POV: a recording studio / music production company established in nashville decides in 2023, after enough acclaim to be a recognizable name for music lovers around the globe, to step into los angeles. with the addition of this new studio, they decide to take subtle elements of their roots in tennessee to incorporate into a new visual essence for overall resonance with audiences & their planed celebration of the new space in LA.

any further insights as to what works / what doesn't is treasured, btw. thank you!

Without knowing what it's for, here's a very uniformed critique:
I really like how it looks as a whole, the lowercase vibe makes it feel modern and approachable, I'm assuming is for some sort of tech brand, like a digital app or something. Something feels off on the...
