Typography mockups · round 2

Five new directions, further apart than round 1. Real CRAB content rendered five times.

Tell me to build a sixth ("mix D hero + H body", "try Oswald + EB Garamond", etc.) and I'll add it — these five are a starting spread, not the full universe of options. If none of these land either, I'll pivot the search direction entirely (say the word).

04:37 Life During Wartime Talking Heads
08:52 Midnight in Harlem Tedeschi Trucks Band
14:21 La Grange ZZ Top

Drew and Doug return to the KVSH studio for a musically freeform edition of Classic Rock and Beyond, bouncing between eras, genres, and a few unexpected detours. This month's installment leans into live recordings, deep cuts, and a fresh cut from a local artist you won't want to miss.

Condensed uppercase display + classic newsprint-serif body. Magazine-editorial: sharp, authoritative, rock-journalism vernacular. Feels like a feature-article page.

Semi-rounded 70s poster display + warm serif body + typewriter mono. Playful, period-specific, unmistakably analog. Courier timestamps feel like a mixing-desk run sheet.

High-contrast Didone display + old-style serif body. Letterpress energy. Elegant and literary — the polar opposite of rock-poster maximalism, but still warm.

Unified geometric-humanist system. Clean, modern, technically-minded. Pairs well with the broadcast/radio-transmission theme without going full "indie podcast". Maximum dark-mode readability.

One variable font doing the whole system, with SOFT and WONK axes dialed to taste. Richly personal, warm, editorial. Uses soft-curves settings here — the same font can swing much more playful or dramatic.
