After 3 weeks of being in Amazing Radio’s chart I thought that was enough to warrant a wee blog post about it – along with a few others bits of info to keep you going.

Amazing Radio is linked to Amazing Tunes: a website aimed at unsigned (or self-signed) artists. Artists can upload music and allow the Amazing Tunes listener base to listen – or not listen – to the tracks. The more a track is listened to, the higher up the chart it gets. I think that’s how it works anyway.

Another place you might like to know about is a website called Jamendo. Here’s their own skit: ‘On Jamendo artists allow anyone to download and share their music. It’s free, legal and unlimited.’  I’m not sure how it could be unlimited but nevermind. Its a huge amount of free music which has been assigned official Creative Commons licenses (free to all) – the most liberal of which even allows the music to be altered or used for commercial purposes. Bulletproof is up on there and the rest will be going up soon.

In the future I’ll be putting out a few tracks that some of you might have heard before – but new and improved of course. As well as those, there’s a collaboration with Bonn Lewis waiting to be released and (when they get themselves sorted) a remix of a Heads We Dance track.

And finally, next Thursday will be the release of Sic Outfit release no. 5 – ‘Pitch Twit – Oink’. Keep you eyes and ears open for download links on the day.

OK so I’m behind on releases due to a holiday to the West Coast of the US (amazing!) and I broke my promise of one release per month. Or did I?! This next release will go out on Thursday the 29th July, just inside the end of themonth. Earlier versions of this track helped to define Pitch Twit: it was this track that led to Sidewards – Pitch Twit’s first ever release. The original inspiration came from a huge track I’m sure you’ll know – the Timo Maas mix of Azzido Da Bass’s track entitled Doom’s Night.

This one will be free again, this time on Creative Commons’ most liberal license allowing commercial use and alteration, and there’ll be WAV versions available for the DJs. Is there anything left to give? Don’t answer that.

Also, just a quick shout out to my top supporting music blogs: OMFG Atlanta; and The Hats and Friends.

Impetus – Pitch Twit’s latest release on Sic Outfit Recordings – is out now! Not only that – its free to all!

Here’s the track:-

Impetus by pitchtwit

Here’s what Dancen Dancen music blog said about the track:-
“I have been pretty busy the last few days preparing everything for tomorrows Discolabevent, that explains the lack of updates in the last days. Just now I was packing my virtual record case, and there is one track, which I’m looking forward to play: Impetus by Pitch Twit. I was pretty surprised hearing the track the first time, because the last release by Pitch Twit I did was a straight electro bomb. But Impetus plays in another game, called Techno! It carries a certain feeling, which only few tracks each year are able to create: It’s timeless. If I would be floating in outer space, this would be my soundtrack, and it would have companions like Gregor Treshers “A thousand nights”. The track is eight minutes long, but Pitch Twit managed to create a brilliant structure, which keeps the track morphing from minute to minute. There is not a single second nor a single beat too much in this stroke of a true genius. The bass is warm and embracing, the synths interesting, but unobtrusive, and the break at 2:20 makes me wanna telling every living creature in the universe that I love it. Believe me, this piece of music will once be seen as a milestone of the development of electronic music. Pitch Twit, I take my hat off – Thanks” Dancen Dancen Music Blog

Impetus is Pitch Twit’s 4th single release on his DIY indie label: Sic Outfit. The single contains two mixes – the original, and a cut down edit. The genre is electro-techno and the track is similar to the likes of Lutzenkirchen, Extrawelt, Popof and Sebastian Leger.
