Greetings Programs...It has been a minute since my last communication, but Maximum has been upgrading. I am now fully functional with the Korg Micro series (MicroKorg, MicroSampler, MicroStation) as my live rig. Sleek, lean and mean! Adieu, Triton. You served you master well.
But enough about me...there is so much going on with The Orkids that I've got to share some of the news or I will derez. Sandra has some new lines, we've got some new tunes, and we are close to releasing our new EP!!!
We have an official title for the new EP: Space and Airplanes, and we want YOU to be a part of it. We currently have an open call for album artwork based on the EP's title. If you are feeling game and got some skillz, send us your best shot at info@theorkids.com or slap it on our Facebook page. We have some really radical stuff coming in so far, so it should get interesting. In addition to the their work being the art for the EP and being included in the album credits, the winning artist will also receive some other ultra-dope Orkids related perks, so if you would like to be part of our next release, lock, load and show us what you got.
We are in the lab, as we speak, putting finishing touches on the trax, so stay tuned for for all the details leading up to lift off, including track listing, song previews, behind the scenes shenanigans and more for Space and Airplanes.
Oh, and if you want to throw down with us live, check us at:
