PHONEFT - Send me a recording of your voicemail greeting, I'll tweak it, freak it, and glitch it out & send it back -OR- send me a recorded message that you want to leave for someone and I'll tweak that for you. It'll still be intelligible, but the person on the other end might think they're having an acid flashback (example link at bottom of "about this project" section). I've done this for a couple of friends, and it's always been fun & really catches people off guard. Also includes a vinyl copy of the record, download+, and backer access.

Does not include transportation of any sort, so if you're out of town you've got to find your way here for the event.

ARTFT - Get original album-related color artwork by me, drawn on top of a page of my hand-written sheet music arrangements used in the sessions. It'll be cartoon-ish renderings of stuff that pertains to the album - maybe me in a Daft Punk visor, or possibly a robot playing a tuba, or... who knows?!?!? It'll be a fun surprise, and I promise to make it funky, colorful, and suitable for framing. Also includes a vinyl copy of the record, download+, and backer access.
