New Outputmessage track on myspace

I've posted a new Outputmessage track on myspace.  It's called "Lungs" and it's from the upcoming Resurface EP set to come out on Melodic records this year.

I know that I've mentioned that I've been working on new Outputmessage material where I'm doing vocals, but the songs on this EP are instrumental,  made right after Nebulae was released.  Nonetheless, I'm really into the stuff on this EP.  It's like the tracks you heard on Nebulae, but taken up a notch.

Anyway, check the track out:

Foals Dmerit remix

We just finished a new Dmerit remix of the Foals track, "Electric Boom" They have a remix competition going on and if you want to help us win, download the track and listen to it a bunch of times with your last.fm plug-in installed because they'll be choosing the 10 finalist based on the popularity of the entries (yes, stupid I know.) Anyway, here is a direct link to the remix:

locals+freaks vol. III

An old Outputmessage live set has been posted on beatbots.com as a part of the locals+freaks podcast.  It was performed March 2005 in Lansing, MI in the studio of my friend Patrick's (part of the  bmore/electro" crew) radio show.  You'll hear a lot of tracks from Nebulae before it was Nebulae and also some material that has yet to be released.

Outputmessage interviewed on Autechre blog

If you happen to speak French you should check out the of me for the Autechre blog run by WARP France.  It's part of a series of interviews of IDM/electronic artists which ask for their thoughts on Autechre and how they've been influenced by their music.  Seeing as how Autechre is one of my all-time favorite artists I was more than happy to oblige.

BYT / new material / vocals?

Don't forget about the BYT relaunch party tomorrow.  I will be DJing/performing at 6pm (right before Animal Collective.)  It's a little early for a Saturday night, but it'd be a good opportunity for you to get a preview of what's to come for Outputmessage.  I will be spinning only Outputmessage material, and most of the songs will be from my upcoming Resurface EP as well as my next full-length (which will contain vocals by me.)

 

Again, here is the info for the BYT party:

Brightestyoungthings.com Relaunch party
6pm-2am
1200 First St. NE
$10
RSVP MANDATORY to rsvp@brightestyoungthings.com

New Models EP in the works...

Mark Herbkersman and I have been sitting on this project called New Models for some time now and are currently finalizing an EP for Race Car to come out later this year. We make something close to what the Postal Service would sound like if they had some more testosterone.  You can check out a demo on our myspace page, but the real thing will be coming soon.  Keep a look out for more details.

Resurface EP

No specific dates yet, but I will have an Outputmessage digital EP out on Melodic this year.  It'll contain seven tracks composed from over a year ago.  Here is the tracklisting:

BYT Relaunch Party @ 1200 1st Street NE

I was invited to play at the Brightest Young Things relaunch party this Saturday.  Funnily enough, I was unaware until a few days ago that Animal Collective would be going on right before me.  It should be a good time.  The show will be happening in a (not so) secret location and you will have to RSVP.

Peep the flyer for more details.

New Dmerit remix

So if you haven't noticed, Micah Vellian and I have not only been holding it down every month at our DJ night MARQUIS, but we've also been serving up some remixes.  Our latest remix is of this up and coming electro front girl (and I do mean *girl*) Nadia Oh. She is produced by this guy Space Cowboy.  Anyway, we remixed "Got Your Number" and put a dark stalker twist on it.

Also, if you missed out on our previous remix of Madonna's 4 Minutes, be sure to check that out too...
