Dirty Intuition drops their first album very soon on ATAM Productions . . . stay tuned!

ATAM Productions Music Publishing has just signed a new, great Canadian dub-hop duo Dirty-Intuition.

From their website:

On Friday, January 20th, I will be giving each of our songs one final polish and shine in the studio with my madd mastering techinques as taught to me by Matthew Cole Edward Claridge! Stay tuned!

Stay tuned indeed, I’ve heard a few tracks off this, before mastering, and it sounds really tight!

Once iNTUiT gives the tracks a final once over, the mastering will be complete and we will be releasing this ASAP.

Also worthy is their Live performance of Good Love at ColdplaySucks.com

Twitter Followers for Musicians and Bands: Momentum through Prescreening

Airport Prescreening checkpoint

Back in March of 2011 I first started to try and actively get more Twitter followers. My original plan failed because I wasn’t able to maintain that “Follower Momentum.”

The new plan was to follow possible fans and then hope that they follow me back. It seems obvious then: the more work you do in selecting who you follow, the more success you will have in connecting with true fans. In this article I’m going to explain the prescreening process I went through. Eventually I’ll post my long term results in another update.

Earlier this year I took my Twitter follow count from a meagre 100 or so up to about 360 followers in 24 hours but I spent a lot of time and the quality of my followers was garbage. How did I achieve this and why did I ultimately fail?

Music Blogging: Chris Lake

I’ve very recently spun my attention towards blogging about Chris Lake and spell check. On the last Pete Tong (check it out on the iPlayer until Friday February 11, 2011 http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/dance/) He recently had a song on there that is pretty hopping.

Check out the new Chris Lake single Secrets In The Dark over here on coldplaysucks.com Chris Lake Secrets In The Dark preview

I haven’t got any information yet about the official release but I’m waiting to hear the latest from the great PR firm Rising Digital

Apologies in advance for any poor or hasty copy writing, my real job should be making beats and this is my procrastination!
