Needs More Decisions
Through my recent bout of annoyances, I have decided to split my latest release into two parts, a la "Automatic".
Meaning, what, exactly?
Well, due to the amount of remixes that I am planning on recieving regarding my next single from Darkness, "Needs More Bass", I'm going to do what I did with Automatic.
That means, basically, there is going to be an official "Single", As in, The original track and a B-Side ("Galimandrix") and possibly 2 remixes (Preferrably the "Starstruck Evolution Remix" and "Dark DJ Remix", aka the Bass Mix), Which for personal issues will not be avaliable for download immediately when completed. Rather, that people interested in owning the Single will have to contact me at my personal E-mail for it.(Which, also, has to be asked for)
The other release will be "Needs More Bass EP" which will have the original track, a Radio edit, and a few remixes, including the epic "Jester Remix" and the "Thomas En Masse" remix.
That enough info for the one person out there who reads this?
Dark.
[EDIT!] I am aiming to have the "Needs More Bass EP" finished by at least 20th September, so those who are remixing it, please send them before that date. Cheers.

Work
I am now officially planning my next album, to be released next year!
But, by release, I mean that it will NOT be commecially downloadable; Instead, fans will need to email me for it. Or, I may think up some competition in a couple of months time, to see who will get a sneak peak of the album.
Bit of cryptic information there, BUT, there is also another "Album" coming out next year...
My Greatest hits.
A 5-6 disc blowout of all of my stuff over the last 3 years, Meaning album tracks, ep tracks, singles tracks, bonus & unreleased material and some rare remixes.
More info soon, as this is just a quickie.
Dark.
P.S: Fans should note that I am planning on working under several new and old aliases as of next year, so keep an ear out!

Needs More Bass Sample Pack:
For any remixers who fancy having a go at this, my favourite remixes (if I even get any back) will be on the single, the others I will be utilising for a project I am doing next year. Hopefully this may encourage people to actually have a go at remixing this this time?

Weekend Mix Complete
Sorry for the lack of posts, have had alot on lately, followers.
But my mix (Or DJ Set, whichever you prefer) is finally done! I won't upload it just yet (Sorry) but I will put up the tracklisting:
Intro ("The Theme Park")
U.F.O
"The Framptons Medley" / One Wrong Turn / Extend Extra
Dance Electric / Acids / Test Remix / Testarossa
Rex Rez / Hurricane (Club Mix)
Needs More Bass
Automatic (The Framptons Remix)/ Abomination
Old Skool II
The end of the mix (From automatic) could have been better transitioned, and a better end song would have been better (the original old skool maybe?) but ive already burned the disks.
This was a quick update brought to you by:

Weekend Mix Beta Stage
I've suddenly been thrown a mammoth of a challenge! My aunt is having a BBQ Next weekend, and has asked me to mix at the party. One little problem: I can't "Mix" conventionally, as in, On a DJ Mixer (One thing I will need to do in the future).
So, I've come up with a solution: using my own songs and remixes, I plan to create a Pre-made mix, then play this while controlling other filters on the mixer. This is pretty much exactly what I'll be doing for "Oblivion", so the mix I make may very well end up being the practice run to see If I can do it.
This is what I have so far: A Half Hour megamix of some of my songs. I still need to create a proper "Intro" and to fill in another half hour of music (I'm booked to play 1 Hour.)
I'll upload the track in a few days, as I still have some things to fix on the Beta Stage Mix.

Needs New Singles
...That's right, I've decided to create three more singles from "Darkness", purely because the tracks in question deserve them.
I decided that the first three singles ("Automatic", "Shapeshifter" & "Rex Rez") are technically promotional singles (Pre-releases), and that , really, I have plenty of time to create more singles for the more popular songs.
So, for now, the singles i'm going to be making are as follows:
"Futura", which I've already decided will only have one b-side, "Ventura". Yes, Thomas Bangalter used the same name on his track, but those two titles really go together. This will be the only 2 track single from this album (simmilar to my older singles) and Is being made due to the positive comments I've recieved regarding "Futura".
"Needs More Bass" will include a radio edit and possibly two remixes plus a B-side bonus track. I will Be uploading a sample pack for "Needs More Bass" in the near future but, If I dont get any remixes back, They will be self remixes (possibly from "The Framptons" or "Tokyo Bass").
"Dance Electric" will have possiblytwo to three remixes/ B-sides on it. But I may also be adding two or three "Bonus" remixes on this release, such as my W-I-P remix of my favourite song from darkness, "Extend Extra", and possibly a "Black & White" or "Late Nights" remix. Again, more news on this soon.
For now, Ill be working on "Futura" and bringing out my next Oblivion practice session this month. I will actually be starting "Oblivion" itself near the end of the year possibly, giving me all of next year to complete.
Peace...
Dark.
