This design is an abstraction of several things, combined into a distinct and unmistakable icon with a powerful and bold typeface.

A pink vinyl record which doubles as a pair of lips dominates the icon, and is balanced by a small deep blue mark representing the microphone often used by podcasters.

The use of grids is important to the strength of this piece. The typography aligns perfectly with the lines of the icon in both the horizontal and vertical configurations.

The logo can also be split into a standalone icon or word mark if need be. Colors can also be changed easily in special circumstances without losing brand recognition.
