Logo Required for Exciting Live Events Web/Mob Startup!

Gighype

We're a pre-launch startup within the live events market; specifically targeting the 'youth' demographic (16-30ish).

People will use our service to discover gigs, concerts, and bar/nightclub events.

Our product is based on both website and smartphone.

Both professionals (organisers, promoters) within the live events industry, and general concert/party goers.

Our audience are young, cool, and social.

We're looking for a talented designer to create a cool, modern logo that resonates with our described demographic.

MUST HAVE:

- Dark background (black-dark grey)

MUST BE:

- Simple
- Clear
- Adaptable across different media
- Mainly type-based - no large, complicated graphics.

MUST NOT HAVE:

- Obvious references to music. Guitars, turntables, etc. Subtlety is key here.

Other than the above, we're open to all sorts of ideas. I have constructed a palette of colors we like, which may serve as a starting point; however please do not be afraid to stray from this as I have no idea if it is workable in practice:

000000
444444
00aaee
4400ff
5533ee
8811bb
000088
441188
554499
bbbbbb
663377
ffffff

Also, we're currently writing our name as 'Gighype'. However, it is up to you how you depict this (all lowercase/all uppercase/as we currently write it).

We like logos with simple fonts. I would also like to see some ideas with icons.

Examples of logos we like: flowtown.com, songkick.com, ticketmaster.com, electricpulp.com, unbounce.com, playfire.com

But, again - don't let us dampen your creativity too much; we're open to suggestions!
