In case you ever think logo oversimplification is bad nowadays, just remember what Electric Light Orchestra did to their logo in 1986.

Electric Light Orchestra's colorful logo from their 1976 album A New World Record, inspired by the Wurlitzer Model 4008 jukebox speaker, with the letters ELO in the center. This logo was used until 1983 and was used again from the 1990s onward.
Electric Light Orchestra's logo from 1986's Balance of Power. It is VASTLY oversimplified, now only consisting of a series of shapes--three blue lines, a large yellow slash with a red underscore next to it, and an aqua rectangle--that vaguely resemble the letters ELO.

Yeesh.

Woah, is that an ELO reference?

This is Mr. Blue Sky! He looks like Jeff for a reason I kind of forgot.
This is Mr. Night! He's an alien that shape-shifts.

to answer your question? yes it is!!!

HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY TO ELECTRIC DREAMS!!

HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY TO ELECTRIC DREAMS!!

i wanted to make something way out of my comfort zone to celebrate the 40th anniversary, so i went with puppets! i definitely learned a lot, got frustrated a lot, but overall had a ton of fun. as shown by the photo though, i only got miles done on time, but madeline and edgar will be made! it’ll just take some time from now. the edgar used for this picture is the one i made for when i cosplay miles!

on july 20th, 1984, electric dreams was released to theaters. due to sudden executive concerns, the movie had to be pulled out of theaters only 2 weeks after its first run, but the movie still managed to survive through reairings, rentals, and cult followings (so if any EDheads wondered why it did so bad at the box office, that’s why, it got yoinked)

this movie… very funnily enough isn’t even my number 1 favorite movie (it’s in the top 3 though) but it IS the number 1 inspiration i have for a lot of what i create and do, its a really charming movie, and 80s as all hell. here’s to many more years of celebrating this piece of art :]
