What is the world remix project?

This is my upcoming album which will expand upon my live-action remix concept, first displayed to much fanfare with the release of Gardyn. The goal of this project is to travel the world in search of sights, sounds, voices and chords, and use them to compose and shoot a track and video for each major culture of the world. It will be funded solely by you the listener, and will be released worldwide on CD, DVD, and here at PogoMix.net.

Why avoid sponsorship and corporate investors?

Working with major labels, studios and corporations often carries with it a number of obligations which greatly affect the integrity and general direction of the project in question. Trying to turn my own idea into a mutually beneficial deal that preserves the integrity of the project is virtually impossible. Besides, remixing real people, cultures and religions carries the responsibility to properly represent someone’s way of being. My world remix concept has peaked the intrigue of various labels, studios and TV channels – but as always with corporate deals, the dollars come with strings attached.

In reality, the album would likely be skewered towards night-life and commercialized metropolitan districts. It would stray completely from my initial concept, and wouldn’t make for compelling material even if I did sell out.

How is it going to be funded?

The world remix project is going to employ a unique method of funding. The only way to fund an endeavor of this scope is with an incremental finance structure.

Every track will be financed by the funds generated from sales of the track before it, so to put it in the most literal of terms, you the listener will be the sponsor!

In a nutshell, if you purchase track #001, it sends me and my crew to our next destination to produce track #002. With the release of each track, I will state a fixed financial goal for the next destination, and provide a publicly viewable status of how close we are to reaching that goal. When the goal is reached, the track will be made available as a free download and will no longer be for sale.

By paying for a track before it is released for free, not only are you helping our cause, but you’re paying me directly to produce a quality track and film production. Plus, every supporter will be formerly credited as an Associate Producer, earning them a discount of the full CD and DVD when the project is completed. Remember when people had to pay for music regardless of quality? Remember when most of that money went to a posh record label?

What if no one supports the project?

If you the listeners stop contributing, then so must I. Your opinions are important to me, so if it’s apparent this project is losing appeal, then it is not meant to be.
