The Next Big Thing(s)

The Pacific Radio Fire CD by the group now that they're here has finally been upped in the queue to be finished. Kevin Brislin is finishing the final mixes for test listening sessions over the next few weeks, then wants to have the CD released in three tiers:
1 - an electronic download in all the usual places (iTunes, amazon.com, etc.)
2 - the physical CD available from CDBaby
3 - a deluxe CD that will include all three CD's from the group, a book of lyrics for all the songs, and a handmade necklace specifically commissioned for this release. This deluxe set will only be available from deep kimchee's website.

The CD insert design is still ongoing, as are plans for an invitation-only release party. There are twelve songs at this time, but that may change depending on what happens during the final mixes. The target release time is August 2009, but that may be delayed depending on the cover design and the usual mastering problems.

The next big project involving deep kimchee isn't ready to be fully announced yet, but it is going to involve an online blog, a DVD, and a book. This project has been in the works now for almost a year and won't be ready for any form of unveiling for another six months at least. Suffice it to say that this is the largest project we've attempted and involves a lot more people than ever before. All you can do is hold on for more info when it's released.
