well, my ritornell release was the very first cd of mine that i 
didn't do the cover art for.. but, no, i actually don't feel 
compromised because i accepted the offer and went into the release 
knowing that all of the artwork was the same..

if my cd was on mille plateaux, and somoene else did the artwork, 
then yes, i would feel compromised because i expect all of the MP 
releases to look different.. but i view ritornell as a series.. also, 
importantly, i *like* the ritornell cover art.. so it didn't bother 
me.. if the series had horrible artwork i would have probably been 
reluctant to do a release for it.

also, ironically enough, my rater.music/rater static cd just came 
out.. here is another series of cds with similar artwork (and the 2nd 
cd of mine that i didn't do the package for)... similar packaging, 
but still very nice packaging..

being a designer myself, yes, it is EXTREMELY important for me to do 
my own packaging design.. but, i will only relinquish control if i 
trust the designer on the other end.
