hey everyone!

the dutch label cardamar music will print 300 copies of “the mirror formula”, and it will be out march 30, 2006. this album was released for free, and premiered on the di.fm chillout channel on december 19, 2005. this release will remain free, however, this is what the limited edition CD offers:

  • new mix/master of all tracks for far better sound.
  • a brand new bonus track.
  • new albumart from the brilliant norwegian gfx artist leonard faanes.

as said in the topic, this album is produced 100% in renoise. all mixing and mastering done in a studio using various hardware and protools.

the cd is 10 euro + shipping. you can pre-order it here:
http://www.cardamar.com

if you want a copy, you should hurry. more than 60+ copies are allready ordered since the announcement of its release 2 days ago.

respectfully yours,
.xerxes

i’ll relese all my mp3’s for free. i do want as many people as possible to hear it. that is, afterall, why i compose music. not because of the money.

so the 300 copy limited edition is for those who are fans, and would rather want a real production of something they like instead of a collection of mp3s.

also, releasing mp3 for free gives people a unique chance to preview the entire album before actually spending money on it :)

PS! the entire album is on www.hellven.org
keep in mind that the CD will be mixed and mastered from scratch in one of the best studios in norway (@ idefagskolen) + it will contain a bonus track and new coverart.

I already did. B)
But want to own the CD as well.

Hehe, make that your sig. :P

Leeched it as soon as I saw it, bought it the second I saw this post. Music I love belongs in cover art!

Dessuten, denne blir verd bra cash om nåken år. Ju rokk! B)

Tell me Xerxes, when you gonna teach Renoise classes?
I mean, it’s just three sessions and people can already easily create great songs.
I bet you can’t do this when teaching Cubase.

Thanks for putting a 12 minute extra bonus track onto the CD, Xerxes! :o
(I got that Cardamar newsletter today, hehe…)
Waiting for the arrival of the CD… :walkman:

And a little bump! :)

Hell if i would have known in advance this publisher was an hour driving away from my home i would have picked it up personally.

Yeah, the Mirror Formula track is a real drug-addicting chiller…
I was a bit impatiently waiting for the real stuff to come in the first five minutes but the nature of the song is different from what my expectation was so it took some time to detach myself from my expectations.
But i already liked the other stuff a lot as well else i wouldn’t have bought it.

Forgot to mention, it sounds real clean and diverse, the mixing and mastering job is really well done…
