The album maybe effectively done. I just need to road check the master (listen to it in the car while the car is in motion.) If I’m happy with it, it goes to the replicators. Album cover after the break.

A New Song Off My Next Album
Posted on March 24th, 2009
Filed under: Music News — Karl Olson @ 2:39 pm
Is now up at myspace. It is called “gothic lolitas” and it’s my ode to cosplayettes and gothlolis, and it features a pretty clubby beat too. Bump this at your con parties, con raves or any other otakucentric event you’re attending. Also, lyrics after the break.
Also, I’m one song (or less) away from completing vocal recording on The Fourth Estate, which would just leave the mixdown/mastering. If I’m serious about that, I could, maybe have a hard copy by SakuraCon 2009. I certainly could have it out on PayLoadz by then.

…time for a Grime Spree.
In short, it’s a cover of “Crime Spree” that is part MC Frontalot, part Dizzee Rascal, except with mediocre production and MC work! Get it while it’s fresh.

Now Annotated

Since “LOL MOE” has somehow pulled in over 9000 views, I felt like doing something fun to give back. So, I annotated it as fully as I could so you know exactly what manga I’m throwing down and what posters and such are in the background.

self-reflective mashups / rapidchar
Posted on March 2nd, 2009
Filed under: Music News — Karl Olson @ 5:50 am
Point 1: Long after mash ups are edgy, I have knocked out a mash-up EP after a whole weekend of work (why yes, it is every dodgy in quality, but as a work I like it. It flows nicely from start to finish, and the end segues eerily well into the beginning without having intended that.) Even better still, rather than mashing up two artists that people thing are cool, it’s me mashing myself up with music I like from Beck, Bjork, The Smashing Pumpkins and Veruca Salt. At a whole 6 songs long though, it’s nice demo of what one can do with Acid’s beatmapping, some acapellas and more time than sense.
Grab it off Megaupload before the RIAA does.
Point 2: Rapidshares are now up on nekodashi. They aren’t a premium account, so they’ll die after 10 downloads though. Oh well.

More Than Meets The Ear

Specifically of “Transformer” of Maja’s The Amalgam Project.
Yes, it is in the Jump Up meets NYC Jungle style I seem to roll in usually for remixes. It’s great though, in large part because Maja’s a tight rapper.
