It’s been about a year since we last heard new music from L.A. based singer Simon Curtis. And while we’ve known he’s been busy with his projects, the 27 year old dropped the official news via Twitter yesterday:
Going to be launching a kickstarter in the coming weeks to fund the massive new project I’m undertaking…
I think it goes without saying that if you guys can help me make it happen, you will have a free album to look forward to…
*that is, a free album IN ADDITION to all the music I’m releasing this year with the new project
So keep your eyes, and ears, on alert 😉
And so tweets from Simon’s Army and his dedicated Robots went wild yesterday.
All you have to do is remember the 2010 campaign for the brilliant 8bit Heart (still available for free download via http://www.simon-curtis.com) and then, not to be outdone, 2011’s mesmerizing R∆, which charted at #19 on Billboard’s Electronic Albums chart and is available on iTunes. These are two of my favourite albums of this decade. I still play them to death!!
You can bet Simon’s fans will make the new projects happen and Summer 2013 should be all about Simon Curtis once again. They’re calling it #YearOfTheCurtis already. (I don’t mind that they’re using my middle name 😉 ).
Spread the news and prepare yourself! Below is the beauty of a video for “8bit Heart”.
