Toro y Moi has a similar logo (there's a cover at the beggining of this thread) and IMO did it better

Bookman Swash is one of my favorite fonts, but agree that the "t" and "e" sort of fuck this up.

Saw him (Nick Lowe) on early-morning TV yesterday, and while he was quite charming that cover (held up for viewers) did seem especially misleading.

i wonder why the C, N and L are all thicker than the other characters. and this the S is a bit of a cop-out. could've just used a 5x5 font and not needed the non-standard slots in the S
WiReD mag has been using something similar for section headings for a while now, not as good as the above though.
