  1. so Devon Kay & The Solutions are at it again. back in november, we released their first full length "Losing IT" as a limited run CD. there's been a lot of people asking when it's going to be pressed to vinyl, so we're going to leave that up to you guys. PRE ORDER HERE! the blue copies will be exclusive to the pre-order, and the black copies will be available after that at shows and on the website. if you've never listened to DK&S before, or just haven't heard Losing IT yet, head on over to the bandcamp page and stream it for free: LISTEN TO IT HERE! anything help you can give (whether it's $1, $100, or even just sharing the link to spread the word) would go a long way and be greatly appreciated. however, the pre-order isn't just for Losing IT on vinyl... devon's been living in boston the last 6 months or so, and has written a new EP's worth of songs. since the rest of the band still lives here in chicago, recording these new songs is going to take some help, too. all of the band's current savings are going toward getting devon back to chicago, so whatever help you can give would go toward covering recording costs. we're trying to get this all taken care of in time for Fest, which DK&S will be playing again this year. the sooner we reach the goal, the sooner we can get the ball rolling. please donate what you can, and help spread the word if you believe in what we're doing. we all sincerely appreciate it. -dan
  2. as part of my attempt to recreate the VMLive Series of recordings that took place in chicago during the mid-90s, i have been taking my recorder around to a bunch of live shows in the city over the past year. when they turn out cool and the band or artist is into it, we release them for free download together. today, Issue #3 is released. it features Devon Kay (of Devon Kay & The Solutions, Direct Hit!, and The Fur Coats fame) playing solo and acoustic at Café Mustache. 10 songs, including some originals, some covers, and some alternate versions. it's a really fun set where you can hear the crowd singing along and the coffee machines in the background throughout. an old VC friend of mine named Errol did the mastering on these tracks, and has done a bunch of mastering for my label over the past year. he's an awesome dude who does great work. you can stream it on the site, but if you download the set, you'll get a digital booklet with some bonus info and pictures from that night and the mission statement of the A.I.R. Presents... series, so keep that in mind. head on over to www.artisticintegrityrecords.bandcamp.com to download Devon's set and a bunch of other awesome stuff for free. there are also a ton of great prints available and some other stuff in the merch section, so check that out while you're browsing and listening. the releases in this series so far* have been: # 1 - Purple # 2 - Mikey Erg** # 3 - Devon Kay *there are lots more that will be released throughout 2014 and beyond, so always keep checking back. i do all my releases on double dates (3/3, 4/4, 5/5, etc.) to make it easier for everybody to remember when shit's coming out. if you want to stay updated, LIKE us on facebook! **the mikey erg release is available for free download, and the physical CDs should be in within the next week. the original copies came in about a month ago, but the first batch that were printed up had a skip during one of the tracks on every single CD, so i had to have them re-made. it stinks, but sometimes those types of things are unavoidable. the wait will be worth it, hopefully.
  3. hey dudes and dudettes! the Artistic Integrity Records facebook page just surpassed 200 Likes a couple days ago, and to celebrate, i'm going to be picking one random fan who has liked the page to receive a free copy of the latest record i just put out, the 7" split between The Ambulance Review and Devon Kay & The Solutions. all you have to do to enter the contest is Like the facebook page before 10:00 pm central time on Sunday, June 24. i'll pick a winner later sunday night, get in touch with them via facebook to get a mailing address, and send the record out some time next week! www.facebook.com/artisticintegrityrecords AIR-002 is an incredible 4 song split 7" between The Ambulance Review from Fredericksburg, Virginia, and Devon Kay & the Solutions from Chicago, Illinois. each side of the split features 2 songs from the respective band, and will leave you satisfied and smiling. please head over to www.artisticintegrityrecords.com to check out all the info, the color breakdowns, and place your orders! in case you've never heard of these guys, here's one song from each band so you can get a little taste: The Ambulance Review - "Okay, Awesome." Devon Kay & The Solutions - "The Lamentation Of A Projecting Moron" [media=]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrhxiUkuwt0&feature=colike i'm going to do a test pressing contest where we'll pick the winner on July 7 (7/7). whoever uploads the best video of their own rendition of one of the songs that appears on the split will get a test pressing from AIR-002, and a free copy of AIR-001, the mike felumlee/dan andriano split i released back in january. so get crackin'! the download will come with 73 different mp3 tracks and a 37-page digital "cd booklet" for your enjoyment. and no, neither of those numbers are typos. 73 digital tracks, and a physical copy of the 7" record on hot pink, white, or black vinyl for $5. i dare you to find a better deal anywhere in the series of tubes we call the internet. (most of those tubes are filled with cats, and pictures/videos of said cats) please pick up a copy either from the website, or come see me at a Chicago show where you can buy one sans shipping charges. your first chance to do that will be this saturday (June 9) when DK&S play with Timeshares at Beat Kitchen. if you're into collecting test pressings, get in touch. we're going to have a few left over after everybody in the bands gets theirs, and everybody else involved in the release of this record. obviously i want them to be in the hands of fans, and i promise you that you're going to flip your shit when you see how awesome the test pressing jackets came out for this release. Grant Kersey absolutely demolished my idea of what was possible with these, so thanks to him for being amazing. i've got a number of other things up for sale on my site, including (but not limited to) some old alkaline trio gig posters, old/rare records from my personal collection, releases from a few local bands, a buy-in-bulk random used CD sale, and the latest addition is custom made spray painted vinyl records. i've gotten tons of questions about them lately, so i'm finally making them available. shoot me a message if you're interested in one! some unfortunate news, now, if you're a big facebook user and are a fan of the AIR page (or any other page, for that matter) there... with all of the weird privacy and notification limitations going on within facebook lately, the only way i can guarantee you'll see each and every one of my updates is if you follow a couple simple steps that i'm about to outline for you. i know it's kind of a burden, but it'll only take a couple seconds, and it will keep you in the loop with any and all future facebook updates. first, please head over to the AIR facebook page (www.facebook.com/artisticintegrityrecords) and hover over the "Like" button with your mouse. a drop down menu should appear, with an option to "Show in news feed". if it is un-checked, please check it. if it is already checked, leave it! it may take a few attempts to work, because facebook is purposely trying to make it hard lately for small businesses to advertise and get their message out without paying to do so, but please be persistent with mine and any other page with which you'd like to stay up-to-date. as you know, i don't make posts every 20 minutes, so i promise i won't clog up your news feed all day every day. anyway, thanks so much for taking the time to read this novel, and for your support of me, my bands, and what we're all trying to accomplish together. it may seem meaningless to you, but it means everything to me.
