About this project

My latest album Mythology of the Metropolis just came out digitally on Daly City Records. It's the third full length album I've recorded under the name Deceptikon, and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Recording the album was a very long work in progress, and I did most of the work on it while I was living in Tokyo, Japan. The album has been getting a great response so far, including some very positive press and blog coverage.

To make a long story short, I love vinyl, and I love limited edition stuff. I've been lucky enough to see some of my music pressed onto vinyl in the past, and I would love to give some songs from this album the same treatment.

Most likely tracklist for the 12":

Side A

Kinyoubi
The Humans Return
Indo Loops


Side B

Broken Synthesizers
Copy The Floppy


(Note: time on each side kept to a minimum to ensure heavy bass and excellent sound)

All of the songs may be heard in the following megamix, which also includes other songs from the full album: Mythology of the Metropolis: Megamix!. Or, listen to clips on iTunes. And, you may download "Kinyoubi" for free right here!

The goal figure of $1500 includes pressing 300 12" records at United Record Pressing in Nashville with nice, 4 color labels, and a cool looking fold-out insert.

I've set up lots of cool reward options, including: Thanks in the liner notes insert, free downloads of the full album, out of print Deceptikon CDs, a remix of one of your songs, a music production consultation, or even a private show in your living room!

Thank you! I can't make this happen without you.
