With the new album by Berlin-based rap artist Megaloh, announced at the end of 2019, design studio Zentrale introduced a so-tight-it-touches Halvar Breitschrift for the artist’s name. Corresponding website, album artwork and tour posters also use the narrow Halvar Engschrift.
Fun fact: Megaloh using Halvar is a lucky coincidence for the foundry TypeMates. In the design process, the concept of megalomania has been a recurring motif when it came to the extensive design space of the typeface.
The 2020 tour was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
A single concert did happen.
