Wow. It’s been a while since I even posted an update. Just a shitload of Facebook and Twitter blasts and all that…you’d swear I was Ochocinco lol.
First off, the album’s production is officially completed, and is now in the hands of Fernando Cruz over at não linear produções audio in Lisbon, Portugal. What started back in January as just a joke has turned into something pretty special, and I’m very happy with the produced product as the finishing touches are made.
In total, there will be 8 original tracks with 5 remixes. 13 in all. How lucky. lol. The album will feature remixes from fellow Moonslave Radio recording artist Code 000, along with nlinear, Electronic Substance Abuse (Tympanik Audio), Bioassay (Mechanismz), and the winner of the “Teabaggin’ Amerika” remix contest, Jeremiah Saint. The album will be available digitally on iTunes worldwide, Amazon mp3,
eMusic, Rhapsody, IMVU, and direct from the MoonSlave Radio online store. Updates as far as the hard release date will be coming soon.
Speaking of Moonslave Radio, there’s a new site launched that will house the digital music store, one of many places you’ll be able to buy the album as well as others. The site is still a bit under construction but should give you more insight on what the label is all about, which started as a virtual club in Second Life involving “Art Fusion” to the upstart label that will use This Is Meower Noise as its first official catalogue entry. In addition, Code 000’s Secret Societies will be released the following month, with Mexico’s Noiz+Zilenth releasing its debut with the label by the end of this year.
As far as live stuff goes, it’s currently up in the air. Now that the studio stuff is done I need to figure out how the hell am I gonna pull this shit off live without making a fool out of myself? lol Well, I’m working on that. I’ll be recruiting another sound-mangler for live shows (will change depending on where I am) as well as some go-go dancers to make me look better (because you don’t wanna look at me…trust me). Oh, and did I mention we’ll all be wearing cat masks during the whole thing?
On Friday, May 28th I will be spinning as a guest DJ in Das Noise Room at Das Bunker in Los Angeles alongside Franck H-Bomb! And it’s tentative but very likely a go that Pixelpussy will be performing at Mechanismz at The Que Sera in Long Beach on Saturday, September 11th. There will be much more added as this album gets released and what not.
There’s a lot going on these next two months, and it has already been a very wild ride so far. The shock that this release is almost about to happen is finally setting in, and needless to say it’s hard to describe how excited I am about this release. Of all the bands and projects I have been involved with none of them have moved as quick or as smooth as this has been.
I want to thank everyone I have worked with over the past four months, from the people I’ve remixed to those who have remixed me. Definitely want to thank Alexsa and Fernando for all they have done to get this record finished. I also wish to thank all my friends and family who have supported me this past decade or so in the scene and those like Franck, Shane Talada, and Blade Rhino who have continued to believe in me when others had given up. I also want to thank everyone who added this page as a friend, who has “Liked” me on Facebook, who has listened to me on Last.fm, who has been a fan on ReverbNation or VampireFreaks, and everyone else whom I’ve encountered.
And most importantly I want to thank those detractors…those who have given up on me…who have thought that I would never amount to anything in this scene nor this business…those who had always talked shit about me and my friends and family and others who have supported me throughout the years, whether out of pure hatred or for just scene drama. To those I say, “up your butt…with a coconut” 😀
*I just HAD to be immature…it just wouldn’t be Pixelpussy without it*
Stay tuned to all the updates, whether through here or through my personal Myspace, Facebook, and Twitter.
We’re almost there!
