Make a Cool and Fun brand with a new Electronic Music Equipment Manufacturer!

Robot Dog Music (or RDM)

Robot Dog Music Electronics is a start-up manufacturer of electronic music equipment. We've been prepping our new products all year, and will be exhibiting in April at one of the largest electronic music events.

We will be competing and collaborating with major companies like Korg, Yamaha, Moog, etc, and need a new image that will project quality and be recognizable in this space.

We need a new professional logo that communicates to a wide audience of creative personalities.

You may of course use color, but the logo should translate well to monochrome, as it will be required that we print on our products in monochrome. I suppose this means no color gradients or smooth shading please.

Please imagine that it could be as small as 8mm x 8mm at some point! (not including text. so graphical element could need to be printed 8mm x 8mm). This means that all fine detail will be lost, and should be avoided if possible. Concepts will need to be communicated abstractly.

I think we prefer a more modern minimalist style, and a good use of negative space, with a focus on the robot/technology aspect, while not losing the fun loving puppy aspect. (if you don't like dogs, this may be hard for you to capture).

Words to consider are "technology", "energy", and "intelligence". Perhaps a good bit of "fun" and "Happy" too. (we realize that's a lot to ask for in a minimalist logo. Please try your best.)

Please stay away from "scary robots".

Robot Dog Music is named for the office mascot "Radar", a long hair dachshund. (pictures attached). We definitely want the dachshund motif represented in the logo. Silhouette of the whole dog, or just head and shoulders is enough.

The logo should also have a "square" variant for social media. Either always square, or having the option is appreciated.

I have also attached some random images for inspiration, but do NOT take these as representative of what we want to create. Just "robots" and "dogs" and "colors" to get you in the mood. Also some pictures of products we've built.

So again,

-Able to be Monochrome without losing impact
-Minimalist
- Robot, Dog (dachshund)
- Technology, Intelligence
- Energy, Fun, Active Puppy
- Square variant for social

Thank you very much for your kind attention. Very much looking forward to seeing your ideas!
