I AM ANNOUNCING! I AM ANNOUNCING! COUGH COUGH! QUIET AT THE BACK!

Yes?

Right.

Akira The Don – I Am Not Dead (Yeah!)
This October 31st, 2009…

6 Track EP!
Zombie Pop Video!
T-Shirt!
Party!

Yes it is true.

I Am Not Dead (Yeah!) is taken from my forthcoming LP, The Life Equation, and was produced by me and Dr Stephen Hague. While the song may be familiar to the keener amongst you, this is the final mixed and mastered version, with a world famous pop star singing backing vocals on the chorus.

All other songs on the EP are BRAND NEW – so brand new I haven’t recorded the vocals on all of them yet. One of them was written today, by me and Joey2tits and James Harrison, and it is AWESOME and EXCITING and demands it’s OWN film.

The video was a year in the making, and cost £48.51 less than that Colin movie. It is violent, action packed and full of wonder. Look out for a trailer on Monday.

The T Shirt is a beautiful grey, and has the image you can see above on it. It was drawn by me, with logo design and mastering by the mighty Zef.

The party goes down at Dogstar in Brixton, on Halloween . We’ll be screening the Zombie Pop Video for the first time, and I will be joined on the decks by a whole bunch of my awesome peoples, like Joey2tits, Disastronaut, The Directing Michael and James Harrison. We’ll be celebrating the culmination of months of bloody hard work by partying super hard, and dressing up in terrifying outfits. There will be booze! There will be fake blood! There will be prizes for the best costumes! Come!

I Am Not Dead (Yeah!) EP will be available as a CDQ 320kbps MP3 digital bundle – including the artwork and the video – from akirathedon.com.  You can preorder right here, right now. Digital preorders will be dispatched on October 30th.

    • Akira The Don

      How husky? I'll look into it!

      • MalariaMan

        Yes, me myself, as a typical over-weight American am looking for a shirt that is 3XL. I can wear 2XL, but 3XL is oh so comfy…

        • Akira The Don

          I got my Mam on the case. GO MAM!

    Another X or 2 wouldn't go amiss, I’ve got an underactive thyroid you know (possibly to go with the underactive rest of me)

    Looking forward to seeing this :)

    I just ordered £120.00 of special effects make up, better be worth it, I'm going to make all my mates look like victims :) gore 'em up nice. Good old wound kits.

    I found out about an event called grimmfest/grimm up north, it would have been perfect for your premiere, check it out http://www.grimmfest.com. There's a walk of the undead through Manchester too :p

    Have you seen Colin? I should be seeing it on Sunday, Is it worth a watch?

    Just bought that EP preorder, will be counting down to the 30th. Also, I hope to get the shirt but spent the last ten days as a zombie in the hospital (damn halidol!) and it didn't fit into my $13USD e-funds budget.

    • Akira The Don

      Crap! Get well mayne!

      • http://stethoscoperecords.com medicating

        I'm getting better.. and anyway… not having a place to live and it being winter and cold as hell outside.. well, they fed me and gave me a place to stay for like a week and a half. can't wait for the EP.. some friends showed me this program Virtual DJ and its cool as hell I don't have hardware but at least I can do mashups on pc now.. now i have to teach them to use it lol

        I stream live every few days on awesomecougars.org (i'm one of the mods for their IRC channel too..) I just started doing this thing the other night and apparently I'm really awesome with it because everyone loves it when i get on radio and wake their asses up with some dance remixes… anyway I'm looking forward to the ep so i can do a mashup with it. :)

          Also I'm about a few days from breaking down and buying the shirt (does it come in black, and can i have a discount because i already bought the ep?)

  • jomilky

    How much is it on the door at Dogstar? About to spread the word, and break out the costume making skills:D

    • Akira The Don

      Free before 10, then 4 quid I belive!

  • Richard from Illinoi

    ATD, you know me, I need my physical CD fix. These MP3s just get to me.

    I'm going to have to make my own CD case. I'll put the mp3s on a blank disc.

    • Akira The Don

      Do you like vinyl?

      • Richard from Illinoi

        Well, I guess that hasn't stopped me before. Sure, I love vinyl!
