Transform the uploaded image into a square album cover. Keep the subject recognizable; compose with a clear central focal point and generous negative space for text. Use lighting and atmosphere guided by Music Genre Or Mood (dramatic rim light, soft haze, or neon glow as appropriate). Blend the photo with genre-matched artistic effects-grain, halftone, glitch, ink wash, chrome, or grunge-while preserving clean edges, depth, and subtle vignette.
Add bold, legible typography: Album Title as the primary headline and Artist Name as secondary. Choose letterforms and layout that suit the genre; place type on the rule of thirds with clear hierarchy and safe margins. Apply a genre-driven color palette and cohesive toning with balanced contrast; finish with crisp rendering and tasteful texture.
<example-style> synthwave: neon magenta/cyan, grid horizon, chrome; lo-fi hip-hop: warm sepia, paper grain, hand-drawn; black metal: monochrome, distressed, jagged blackletter; jazz: smoky blues/gold, spotlight; indie folk: muted earth tones, soft haze, letterpress. </example-style>
