We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on July 22, 2011.

DL EP #2!

Update #6 · Jul 17, 2011 · 1 comment

 Wow, 5 days to go, and the goal has been reached! There are not enough thanks for all who have helped make this happen. It really has made me and the artists involved in LoDubs think quite a bit more positively than we where back when the situation that prompted the need for this campaign emerged, that's for sure!

 Now, although the goal has been reached, I must admit that the reason that we set it at that amount is because that is what we where hoping we could raise, and what we could be assured that along with a bit of budgeting from other sources would allow for us to complete both projects. In these final days, anything that we can raise over and about the goal will really make that aspect a lot simpler, and alllow us to do more. Furthermore, we are pretty close to the goal we need to get to in order to do the colored vinyl editions for backers only. So I would not discourage anyone from jumping in at any of the levels that will guarantee you a copy of these releases as a Kickstarter edition. There will be another very significant bonus beyond the colored vinyl, bonus tracks, and CD bundle with each of these releases in that form that will make each a highly special item. I can't say more, as I am hoping to keep it a surprise, but rest assured, all who receive these editions will be one of around 50 people who will open a package and find something more that really kick it all up a notch!

As for the other bonus, the DL EP#2, it is now complete, and just being sorted out. We will send out the links to this shortly after the campaign is complete! Here is the tracklisting:

01 - Swarms - Polar (HxdB RMX)

The vocal and warm atmospheric low end of Polar is somehow perfectly suited to HxdB's signature future garage sound.

02 - Clubroot - Rise To Surge

Unheard, in any form. This will only ever come out as part of this EP, and thus will only be available to backers. He has so many great tracks just waiting to see the daylight, giving one as good as this is really just his way of saying "thanks".

03 - Pirate Soundsystem - Rush Around (Chrissy Murderbot vs 6BLOCC Refix)

Crazy combination of the hyperspeed 4X4 footwork-esque sound of Murderbot and and 6Blocc's knack for the giant, destructive melodic bassline. pure peak hour business...

04 - Pocz & Pacheko - Tormenta

More of that Psychedelic Tribal bass from our favorites south of the equator.

As stated above, expect the DL code for this EP in the days following the completion of the campaign, and thank you again!

      P.S. with regards to the Color vinyl, we are actually a lot closer on that then it appears. We have between 30 and 40 of each committed through individual purchases, and through Group buys, which make up some of the more sizable individual backer amounts. I would have to say that it is highly unlikely that the color vinyl will NOT happen at this point, although bringing in a few more will really help lighten the expense, as it is pretty high for such a small quantity.

    ~BACKERS ONLY PRESSING!~ For each pledge at this level, the individual will receive 1 copy of the LP pressing of either the Swarms LP or upcoming Clubroot LP, in a pressing which will have a vinyl color that will only be available to backers of this Kickstarter campaign! This is the opportunity for those who support our campaign to not only receive our endless gratitude and the satisfaction of helping us continue, but the opportunity to both shape these releases, and receive the final product of that action! Of course, we will need to reach certain levels for this to be possible on the pressing side, namely at least 50 backers, so we suggest you spread the word on this tier, as if we do not reach the projected goal for backing at this level, yet reach it for the campaign, each backer at this level will receive the standard black vinyl version, which is still quite cool, but not nearly as cool as a color you helped bring into the world! Each Backer at this level will also receive a digital download of the album weeks ahead of its regular street date, so you'll know what the world is in for weeks before it does!

As these releases on vinyl are always pressed and hand made to order, as are our clothing offerings, we will be selecting the items, but with each you will see a interesting picture of the spectrum of LoDubs, including items which we in all likelihood have been holding back, due to only having one or two left.

    ~THE COMPLETE PICTURE~ Now, for one looking to build out their LoDubs collection without any gaps, they could spend a lot of time and money relentlessly hunting down releases, many of which are tightly held by those who currently own them, or they can help bring the new releases into the world, and at the same time complete their stack! Two birds, one Stone! At this level, we will give you the deluxe backers pack and advance downloads, plus ALL 29 of the LoDubs releases, both in print and on the verge of being gone forever, and even a future release or two!

We will also include a test pressing of BOTH of the Swarms and Clubroot releases, along with 4 test pressings of releases from the LoDubs catalog, many of which there are only five of in existence!

    ~THE COMPLETE PICTURE – LODUBS OVERLORD VERSION!~ So yes, this includes all the above in the Super insane Version, EXCEPT THE DIRECTORS CUT. Why, you ask? Well, because the first pledge at this level will receive a Dub Plate cut of that release! When we put together THE DIRECTORS CUT, We where in a rush to get the record out, and instead of doing a test pressing, we did a 12” acetate cut to check the mastering. There is literally ONE COPY of this item in the world, and that is the way it will always be. And if you are the first at this level, that is what you will receive. Of course, should that be gone, we have a few other spots available as well, the other of which will receive either a individual LATHE CUT or DUB PLATE which will also be an item only one of will ever exist in the world. Some of these cuts are used for our soundsystem, and may be tunes that will never be released in any other form, ever!
