K.H.D. wins This Is Hardcore remix competition!

The winners of the This Is Hardcore remix competition were just announced, and as K.H.D. was scrolling down the list of winners, he saw this:

Alien T – The victory – remix by K.H.D.

This is excellent news for Shyfted Minds!  Good publicity.  See the proof for your self here!

As for the release date of the remix album, it says that ‘The TiH Remix Contest Album will be released on all official This is Hardcore channels on 01/03/2013.’

From the silence… shadows…

As Shyft types this he is listening to the new K.H.D. double album that shall soon be released, ‘Project Afterlife Transmission’. It is wonderful. Every track is finished and arranged; we are waiting on cover art. Predaking’s new EP is growing in to a new album. Demon’s Breath decided to scrap the EP that we were waiting on as an official release, due to complications postponing the release and feeling that his work on those tracks has become outdated. He hopes to release some thing new with us in the near future. Dustrict’s collaboration with a new artist is still in the works; samples have proven interesting so far.

As for Shyft? As is typical, life has gotten in the way and I have not been able to focus on any art projects in a long time. Despite the projected date, the new book’s release is suspended indefinitely. The writing is done; the editing is done; the sound track is done; and most of the cover art is done, but I still have no idea how to properly market a piece of writing and training a one man marketing team and then making a plan tailored to a specific product takes time that I just don’t feel comfortable devoting to it right now- and I want to do it right. It is majorly frustrating, but at least I have crept back in to my music studio… Red Ankh Gray, the industrial metal double album, is finally nearing completion. Seven of the twenty seven tracks just need vocals recorded, and two of them need instrumentation work; the rest of them are complete. I shall also soon be pressing the priority of remixes for My Webbing Come Undone, so that I can finally release a single of that track alongside the symphonic break core album that features the track- an album that has been complete for almost a year now. Better patience I am learning. I used to be able to do every thing at once, writing ten albums and three hundred pages per year. Things have changed, and I’m getting used to it.

“O” project nearing completion

Shyft’s fourth science fiction/fantasy novel is written, edited, formatted for print, and sound tracked. Remaining is formatting the text for Kindle, planning and rolling out a marketing campaign, and publishing! Never mind that he has to go back to school in nine days! The production may be running late, but the show must go on. One may expect a full release by the end of October. One… may.

In the mean time, please enjoy this remaster of one of Shyft’s classic gabber tunes, up now to bang out your ear drums for the sake of promoting the OST and the book. The Harpist was once a gentle, free spirited young magician. How is it that he came to desire To Destroy All Things?

K.H.D. writes video game inspired album

K.H.D. has finished a thirty-six minute album composed as if it were an original sound track to a video game. The work is called ‘Soonjite’ and it is now released here on Shyfted Minds! It is definitely different from his hard core music, but the same technical production and melodious intent can be heard. Snatch it up by clicking on the image above!

I, Shyft, have been spending most of my free time editing my new science fiction/fantasy novel, so far simply titled “O”. It is in the final editing phase now, and then comes promotion and publishing. The book and it’s accompanying sound track, which is comprised of forty songs inspired by scenes and characters from the book, should be finished by the end of the summer.

Also Dustrict is working on a new collaboration release with a new artist, and Predaking is writing a new EP.
