TESTUBE

I finished my Testube remix for LowHero.DLL's dark pop smasher "Forget Me Now" last night and you can now download it for free at the official LowHero.DLL website. I was a bit intimidated at first by how catchy the original version was, but I opted for a mellow and quirky approach and I think it worked quite well. Check it out and let me know what you think!

You can also preview most of the tracks from the upcoming LowHero.DLL album titled FM Era on the same page.

I just received word that my Testube remix of I, Parasite's new song titled "Four Last Things" made it into the top four of their remix contest. Chris will be selecting one final remix to be included on their upcoming album The Sick Are Not Healing. The remix contest was quite unique, as Chris posted audio files that had been processed and chopped up, as opposed to traditional instrument tracks from a multi-track program. None of the remixers had heard the original track, either! As a result the remixes submitted were quite diverse.  keep reading »

Testube will be remixing an exciting track titled "Forget Me Now" from the band LowHero.DLL. Often hailed as the male counterpart to Ladytron, LowHero.DLL delivers dark and powerful electropop tunes in the vein of Fischerspooner, coupled with emotive vocal charisma and straight-razored lyrics ala The Legendary Pink Dots. Check out the LowHero.DLL website for some free preview tracks, and keep an eye out for their new album FM Era, which is expected to be released later this year.

I contacted Tommy T. yesterday to inform him that I have withdrawn Testube from the DSBP roster. Unfortunately, it was part of a reply to one of his "sheeple" rants, and I said a few things that I probably shouldn't have. It's a shame that I had to leave the label on a sour note, but I have this nasty little tendency to let things bottle up over time and then unleash the poison tongue. For that, I am sorry.  keep reading »
