UnoriginalVinyl (stylized as Unoriginal Vinyl or abbreviated as UOV) is a graphic design brand founded in 2014 by Jason Zeimet. The company specializes in creating high-quality vinyl record packages and related media for the music industry, working with artists such as Solid State Records and Tooth & Nail Records.[1]

The brand is known for its meticulous design approach, aimed at enhancing the collector experience through unique, high-quality products. The name "UnoriginalVinyl" was inspired by a creative concept featured in the music video for "Cover Girl" by the band The Ongoing Concept.[2]

Founder Jason Zeimet's background includes involvement in the music scene through vinyl inspections and work connected to Tooth & Nail Records in the late 2000s. He leveraged this experience to build UnoriginalVinyl into a respected brand in the niche market of custom music packaging.[3]

Notable Projects and Collaborations

edit

UnoriginalVinyl has been involved in a number of significant projects within the music industry, particularly in the realm of high-quality vinyl releases.

In 2022, UnoriginalVinyl partnered with Iodine Recordings to redesign and package the reissue of *Rituals of Life* by Stretch Arm Strong. This limited-edition release marked the album’s first return to vinyl since 1999 and featured exclusive color variants.[4]

The company also co-produced the 20th-anniversary vinyl pressing of *Parade of Chaos* by Zao. This special edition included unique design elements, retrospective essays by band members, and remastered audio. The re-envisioned artwork was approved by Don Clark of Invisible Creature, who designed the original CD cover.[5]

In 2023, UnoriginalVinyl designed the packaging and layout for the remixed and remastered version of Hopesfall’s 2002 album *The Satellite Years 2.0*. The double LP features an embossed gatefold jacket and includes a retrospective essay by Emery’s Matt Carter, along with a booklet of photos from the original studio recording sessions.[6]
