Akhenaten is a music studio for cinematic, horror and classical scores. Its identity is drawn by hand in black crayon: a pharaoh’s face, Anubis and the ruins of a lost city, so every cover, poster and screen feels carved out of the dark.

Akhenaten the sand remembers.

The crayon

The whole identity began on paper, built up in black crayon and smudged by hand before it was scanned.

The world

A pharaoh in the ruins, Anubis with his arms raised, and a procession of masked figures: one mythology for every release.

In motion

The crayon world moves too, in slow loops for the site, the socials and the studio screens.

Out in the world

Vinyl, billboards, tees and the studio itself carry the same black and white.
