Our friend Sudara just launched the new version of his
indie-music-platform alonetone, which is an absolutely awesome opportunity for new artists to spread their music.
If you’re into free, independent music—like we are—it’s a must-visit. It’s new, gorgeous interface offers way more access to great music and makes sharing uploaded songs a snap.
Speaking of alonetone, it’s also a good opportunity to listen to some of Sudara’s original music (which is hosted there as well).
My favourite is Best You Can Do
(you can play it right from the site). Go, give it a try! It’s definitely worth it.

The two well-known circles are still here but the interlocking has changed to simple overlapping. What’s confusing to me is that the overlapping parts are not interlaced anymore but inverted.
The third and bigger circle on top is filled with semi-transparent gradients which make it really hard to print because they need rasterization.
All in all the logo seems more like they wanted to go with a trend instead of upholding brand awareness.
What MasterCard says about their new logo:
The three circles reflect the company’s unique, three-tiered business model as a franchisor, processor and advisor.
Questionable if anyone of us is really interested in MasterCard’s number of business tiers. I’m not and I guess most of you think same.
