And a sincere thank you to everyone who left comments.

That was fun – let’s do it again soon!

I always get a huge thrill when I have a copy of a CD I’ve worked on in hand – there’s a real sense of achievement and closure. All the more so in the case of Unsung Heroes – as the you can hopefully tell from the animation below, Kou Chou Ching and Phalanx Design have done a sterling job with the packaging and presentation. And hey, I’m a superhero in the album art. Who am I to argue ;^)

Lucky draw time! I have 3 copies of the album to give away. To enter, just leave a comment on this post below (make sure to leave your real e-mail so I can contact you for your address if you win). I’ll let Emily pick winners from a hat and let you know in a week. Good luck!

***UPDATE***

The contest is now closed. Congratulations to our three winners.

German airline Lufthansa has used my Disquiet Mix of Chang Jui-Chuan’s “Hey Kid” (off Asian Variations) in an online video promoting Hong Kong as a travel destination. They did quite a bit of editing, but it’s interesting nonetheless to see the track accompanied by visuals of Hong Kong.

The video is on the Lufthansa TravelWorld website (select “Perle des Luxus” on the right).

Although I do most of my performances online, I do have a couple of real world events coming up around Taiwan in July.

First up is a performance at Luvstock 2009 on Saturday, July 11th. Boston Paul of The Refuge in Dakeng is the organizer of this yearly event that just seems to keep growing. The following performers are confirmed for the two-day event:  DJ-REdo (Dominikolas), Militant Hippi Revolution, Dr. Reniculous lips and the Skallyunz, Plan B, The Stackers, Jon R. (Artist), David & The Flintstones, Waysoon, City of Earth, Point 22, Jagabags, Gruveballs, Tyler Dakin, and myself. Sounds like a party, so if you’re around Taichung on the 11th and 12th you know where to go.

I’m also really excited about performing at The Wall in Taipei for the first time on July 26th. The occasion is the CD release of “Kou Chou Ching presents: Unsung Heroes”. As we speak, I’m finishing up the master for the album. There will be performances by all the artists on the album, ie. Kou Chou Ching, Chang Jui-chuan, DJ Point, and myself. This is bound to be a goodie! More info (in Chinese) here.

To close this news update, here’s another cool machinima by Aiden Witrial of audience members at one of my Mood Lounge performances in SL:

Chris Bailey and I have just released Suncake Lounge Vol. 1 online. The disk is still at the printers’, but you can preorder it now and download a digital version in the meantime.

In the spirit of trying all things but keeping the good, we’re trying to build some interest with the Sprout below. You can listen to the complete album in it and help us promote the album by reposting the Sprout on your Facebook page, MySpace, blog, etc. We really appreciate the help!
