SCI Borg - Available for USA purchase soon April 23, 2008
Posted by Kyle Ward in : General, Music, News , 7commentsGreetings everyone -
I’m happy to make the announcement that the SCI Borg Volume 1 (retail) CD will soon be available for purchase. Naturally, this means that you will be able to purchase your own CD copy or download via Itunes. I’d love to hear your comments about the release! 
Additionally, things have been pretty busy around the studio lately. I’ve been very active with several projects and hope to see them have positive influence in the near future. Naturally, please be sure to check back for all updates.
I’d like to also remind people that new Mp3 releases are being produced and released via the SCI Recordings Store. This is the most convenient way to purchase some of my latest material and I encourage everyone to check it out if you haven’t done so yet. What would you like to see? How many people are interested in the possibility for FLAC downloads?
It is my hope that the SCI Store will make it easier for people to obtain the latest releases the minute they are available from the studios.
More news coming soon!

Posted by Kyle Ward in : General, Video , 5commentsI was recently contacted by Hahn Ting who gave me word that he had used Banzai’s Zodiac song in a short “Stop Motion” project.
His project video demonstrates “A look at the uglier side of life“. This is a very well done piece and I’m happy to see the emotions conveyed.
Be sure to check out the video on youtube HERE or below this entry. Please understand that this controversial video may be considered offensive to some people. Thanks for sending me the link Hahn. Enjoy!
