Wrote an album a while ago. Finally moved to the city and landed a job. Now that I don't have to worry about surviving I can concentrate on my music. Looking to network and find DJs/musicians with BREAKBEAT, DIRTY HOUSE, AMBIENT, ACID ROCK and CLASSICAL influences. i know right? In short, Im looking for EVOLVED MUSICIANS who thrive on pushing the boundaries. I need musicians with this background because my album has these elements woven throughout. A little about the work:

Concept Album with story/theme throughout
7 part track with 2 before and 1 concluding(10 tracks total)
Satire dark in nature which brings the need for contagious beats and melodies
Looking to release remix version of album with multiple DJs reinventions
Intended to be incorporated into a live performance for stage/screen
Eventually will be looking for live MUSICIANS, PERFORMANCE ARTISTS and SCREENWRITERS to bring this to life



****I am an artist before a musician. This album was spawned from a drawing I did 10 years ago. It has/will take many incarnations, but the album will be the most important and influential part. I need passionate musicians to help me bring this to life. I have no recording equipment and first I am looking for someone with equipment to allow me to record my vocals. After that I will have something to present to interested parties who want to work with me. I realize money is hard to come by these days but I would definitely consider bartering or paying as much as I can for recording time. If you're looking for payment before working with me then you're probably not the type of musician i want to work with. If you are intrigued and passionate about creating something that is going to explode underground, then please don't hesitate to contact me. I am a perfectionist and have been crafting this work for 3 years now. I have it all mostly composed in my head. I want to encourage DJs and Musicians to give me input and incorporate their own sound into the album, therefore breathing new life into the final work.

I am not looking to make money so much as create something and get exposure. I am a true believer that we are all responsible for helping eachother.If we do the right thing the right way the fruits of your labor are sure to follow. This is why it is genius to collaborate from the very beginning. When album is finally ready for distribution I will donate percentage to many different groups who need help. Same for live performances. This is not a one time deal, I have vowed to continually donate proceeds to people who are less able/fortunate(including but not limited to victims of AIDS, cancer, hepatitis, abuse and neglect) Ive taken my time the last 3 years to perfect this album so now I'm ready to shift into high gear and work with SERIOUS musicians to complete this asap. Tentative release would ideally be by end of 2010.

If you want to make a difference then please join me in being that voice. There is a revolution happening right now. We are a part of it whether we like it or not. I'm looking for the other bleeding hearts out there. You know who you are.

  • Hi Mate!

    Read your post. I am also looking to find musicians to push the boundaries - what a sod i live in the uk and your good self is over the water! I have some basic (quantity) but good (quality) recording gear. Pushing the boundaries .....hmmmm ... I wonder if we can do something long distance. I am a guitarist who has been playing for 36 years, never worried about money too much, just the unexplainable pleasure from playing. Am really into finding wierd/odd/unused scales and making something work from them. If you can't come over to the uk and I am not yet in the position to go over to the USA, perhaps e-mail attachments might work. Am happy to contribute for getting credit and maybe a few cd's if all works well. Worth a try? Contact me to see what we can do. at the very least we can exchange ideas for virtually nil cost. look forward to you reply, Mike
