Win A Free Copy Of The Dino Soars

The economy sucks right now, and it's hard to justify buying too much music.

Want to win a free copy of The Dino Soars? The month of February, I'm showing some love to my fans by giving away one copy a week!

Go to YouTube starting tomorrow (until the end of February) and check out the music video of Nowhere To Run
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdV5p1fh4ws

Watch it all the way through and let me know what you think! At the end of the week, I'll choose the awesomest comment and I'll send that person a copy of The Dino Soars (Elita Likes Electro / Unfun Records) for free!

Rules:
1. No spamming, flooding, or hate. I want to see some quality, not necessarily quantity!
2. One CD will be given away every week until the end of February.
3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdV5p1fh4ws
4. Winners will be contacted through their YouTube accounts.

1 Album, 1 Month

http://www.rpmchallenge.com/component/option,com_comprofiler/task,userProfile/user,5654/

http://www.rpmchallenge.com/

I'm going to attempt to create an album from scratch in the month of February. That's 10 songs, 35 minutes total, 28 days.

I know that I've already released The Dino Soars, but I want to see what my output can really be. At my output peak in college, I made about 3 tracks per week, sustained for about 2 months.

Unfortunately, I burned out pretty quick and never got back into that kind of groove. I know that Undeniable is right in the works to be released soon, and I feel like I should be working on that (but the music is being copyrighted at the moment, so I'm stuck). This is sort of a lull where I can just go back to being the pure musician, and step away from the producing, mixing, marketing, etc for just a short while.

So. February 2009. Year of the Ox, bringing back the cycle to me, giving me the mojo I need, resetting and refreshing the musical mind of the dinosaur.

I'll keep up a weekly update for the month of February for RPM Challenge, as well as anything new from Undeniable.

I can feel that this month will be a nice, busy one.

Connective Collective (And Update)

I just finished this track last week. Check it out on my profile!

I'm still trying to fit a few more tracks to the upcoming release Undeniable. Connective Collective will be featured on the B-side cassette.

1-2 more for the A-side. I'll try to finish them up in the next few weeks!

The Wonderland Syndrome

If you haven't seen my work in my newest project The Wonderland Syndrome, go and check it out at http://www.myspace.com/thewonderlandsyndrome

I began collaborating with Johnny Darko about a month ago, working on various little bits of music coupled with his vocals, spanning all sorts of different genres, mashing together different pieces of material I've put together through the years.

There's even a different take of Nowhere To Run!

So head over to http://www.myspace.com/thewonderlandsyndrome and check out my music!

(More info coming soon on yet another project of mine!)

New Electro Track Cellulose!

In anticipation for the limited release (to 10 copies) Stegosaurus Rex - Undeniable cassette, I've been working on some new tracks for Side B (electro).

Side A will be a collection of previously unreleased New Wave music (including Undeniable), while Side B will be a collection of previously unreleased electro and dance stuff.

Hopefully, it'll be out soon in a few months, but to keep you all occupied in the meantime, I've put up the new track Cellulose on the stegrex profile for your listening pleasure.

If you want to check out some more electro, Gyroscopes is still available at http://www.myspace.com/maxwellchen

Feel free to add them to your profiles!

(It'll be a cassette collection, limited to 10, of previously unheard music + Undeniable)

Rules:

1. Enter as many pieces of art as you want to increase your chances of winning, but add only one piece of art per email. Email to steg.rex@gmail.com
