danthemjfan23 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 first and foremost, happy new year! i hope all of you had an incredible evening to cap off 2012, and start 2013 off with a bang. today is the big release date for the covers compilation i've been putting together for the past month or so. because i'm a numbers weirdo who loves michael jordan, there's 23 tracks on this bad boy. lots of bands from chicago who i've had the pleasure of becoming friends with over the past year, but also lots of bands from all over the country, and even one from Canada (that's right, baby, AIR is going international in 2013!). to actually download this bad boy, go to www.artisticintegrityrecords.com, click on the tab labeled "Downloads." it will be the very first thing available for download on the page, so just click the "Download Album" button, enter your e-mail address, and you should have a link waiting for you in your inbox faster than you can say "blueberry pie." maybe not that fast. but pretty fast, okay? if it's not in your inbox, check your spam folder. the e-mail will have a link to download a zip folder. once that downloads, you'll have 23 new tracks to sing along with, as well as a digital CD booklet detailing which bands are covering which songs. this comp is absolutely, positively FREE to download. hopefully there are a few bands on here that you're already familiar with, but i hope even more to expose you to a bunch of new bands you've never heard before. my favorite thing about music is going to shows and seeing a new band and having them blow me away. i know sometimes it's hard for a band's energy and charisma to translate into a recording, but i honestly feel like all of these tracks do the bands who performed them justice. please feel free to share the link with your friends or anybody else you think may enjoy this. here's the tracklisting for AIR-004, "We've Got You Covered, Vol. 1":1. Mike Felumlee – Hang On (originally by Teenage Fanclub)2. Devon Kay & The Solutions– Ours (originally by Taylor Swift)3. Invasion – Warsaw (originally by Joy Division)4.

mclz Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Is Costanza your band? If not, I guess you were just dying to get a band with a Seinfeld reference for a name on here. Haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha. haha everybody has been saying that. no they're not my band. i'm Big Deal & The Who Cares? though there are a few bands in the area with Seinfeldian names. i'm friends with the boys in costanza. we're trying to set up a show for some time this summer where all the bands are seinfeld references (one of the bands is the van buren boys) thanks for taking the time to give this a listen, everybody. i can't even explain how proud i am to have worked with all of these bands/artists. such an unexpectedly rewarding experience.
