The front of the cover shows a drawing of a landscape highlighted in blue. In the middle a path is highlighted on which two dark blue figures can be seen. The figures cast a gray shadow on the path. To the right of the path there is a tree that also casts a shadow on the ground. A bush is drawn to the left of the path. He too casts a light gray shadow on the floor. Above the bush is written "I Remember" in white ornate letters, which is the title of the song from the EP. Above the writing is a dark blue sky adorned with a small moon. On the back of the cover you can see the black logo, the "Mau5head" by the artist Deadmau5, which is on a white background. The CD itself is white and has the head of DJ Deadmau5 stuck on it.
