PROJECT

Buffalo Hide, an audio mastering studio, reached out to collaborate, needing a simple logo and brand look that would work across all marketing platforms. Being a studio based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the desire was to have an identity that felt modern, while honoring and respecting the Great Plains.

APPROACH

The creative brief was simple and open to interpretation, allowing for free-roaming creative exploration. I wanted to create a mark that could embody both audio engineering, as well as a literal representation of the buffalo. The final concept that won out included a representation of an audio waveform in the shape of the iconic buffalo. 

ABOUT BUFFALO HIDE MASTERING

Buffalo Hide Mastering is a Tulsa mastering studio committed to the artistic science of making records sound great.

The do-it-all ethos of the musician/producer/engineer is certainly understandable -- you've labored on a project from start to finish, why not just 'master' it yourself? We wholeheartedly believe that an objective third-party, with an ear for the big picture utilizing mission-specific equipment, can take a record from good to great. Buffalo Hide wants artists - especially those on a limited budget - to take pride in their work, knowing it stands toe-to-toe with albums costing 10x more.
