THE NEW ALBUM - EVERYTHING IS UNDER CONTROL by trillion
after announcing my retirement from the rap scene, i have been convinced by a few people that all i need is a break... (we'll see how long the break goes for).so there's a new album ready for your ears - for those who want to hear it in it's entirety and not read about it,
go here: http://trillion.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-under-control
and the new videos i promised are:
THE CLIMATE GATED COMMUNITY by Trillion - featuring Hugo (rap news), Project nRt & A Bomb
the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3m9aCKDVjA
pre song media round up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2KknCl8mbw
and: NEW WEIRD OGRE'S (the NWO song) - final song on the album.

the video isnt very good so you may as well just listen to the song complete with outro:
http://trillion.bandcamp.com/track/14-new-weird-ogres
and the same goes for the album intro (like the NWO song, the video is basically an advert),
so go straight to the audio and save your download time:

THE SALES PITCH - read on...
here's the link again: http://trillion.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-under-control
This album is my first 'download only' release, and the price is by donation (via paypal) i have set the initial price, not free, but very low ($3US) as to allow it to be affordable for all.
this price tho, is merely a base rate, and if you feel like giving more please do so. if you bought this from itunes it would be about $14 - but I don't want you to think of it as a purchase of mp3's. i want you to think of it as a donation of appreciation for the time i have spent creating this music. paypal works best but bandcamp also accept visa & mastercard (and doesn't take a cut).
so, if you want to buy me a nice loaf of bread - $5, if you want to buy me a box of organic veges - $15, help pay my rent - $50 etc and your money will be gladly used for these things.
this project has been very time and energy consuming, i estimate i have spent approximately 1500-2000 hours on it all - from researching/writing/creating music/recording/mixing/mastering/filming/editing videos/graphic design/cd artwork/promotions/emailing etc etc i do it all and it has engulfed my life for the last year or so. and this is the time where i hope to pay back some of the money i have borrowed to survived during this time.
PRESS RELEASE - MAY 1st 2010
Trillion Announces the release of a new album: EVERYTHING IS UNDER CONTROL
Trillion's videos have received about half a million combined youtube views. His music hits a chord with many people who are looking for answers within the matrix of political lies and health issues. His music also breaks down age and gender barriers, many of his fans are not young men but women old enough to be his mother. And nearly all his fans live outside of his homeland of New Zealand.
Trillion has been at the forefront of riding a new wave of music recently named 'truth music'. It is music that is not just catchy and clever, but contains researched facts and information that will change peoples lives. It is music that awakens people to the mass of lies and propaganda which is fed most often via the television sets, radios, newspapers and magazines, hospitals, doctor and dentist surgeries, schools and universities, churches and government departments.
Trillion takes particular topics or products and turns them inside out. One viewer said 'it's like watching a documentary on fast forward'. This is where his success lies; in a fast world, no one has time to sit down and watch hour long documentaries on everything. But everyone has time to watch 4 minute music videos on youtube. So Trillion set out to perfect the catchy song/music video/documentary, and time after time he has come up with the goods. Enough goods to make an entire 80 minute album out of the music.
Tired of the music scene, his initial intention was to use his talents to make a couple of songs to help make people aware of a few common toxins in everyday processed foods. Then the list of lies kept getting longer, and the drive to keep raising awareness stayed. It was a natural process to compile all these songs on one album.
With the slump of physical cd sales and because Trillion's new fan base is spread world wide (in the past it has been near impossible to distribute cds in other countries), he has made a wise decision to make the album download only.
here is the link: http://trillion.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-under-control
at bandcamp you can also listen to the entire album at no cost.

BUT THAT'S NOT ALL...
i have also finally uploaded almost every past album to bandcamp too - from 1995 - 2010
you can buy downloads of all the Trillion albums - all the old Dark Tower albums
AND everything else i have been co-creater of: Jim Christy, Billy Wilson, Bazuki Joe, etc.
AND, they are all way cheaper than buying a real cd, but bandcamp has this awesome feature where you can pay more than the set price (if you are feeling generous!)
see all the albums here: http://trillion.bandcamp.com
but that's not all... FREE STUFF!
I have re-mastered 'Shadows On A Flat Land' and recently re-worked the song 'Nothing' (featuring Jeremy Taylor) from that album - you can also download that for free: http://trillion.bandcamp.com/track/nothing-2010-remake-free-download
small piece of trivia - in 1998, 'Nothing' was one of the highest played local songs on NZ radio.
