Sam of Projekt asked us to help promote the upcoming Projektfest 2010. Apparently some of you were asking us — and Melodyguild — to be included via the Projekfest Poll. While we appreciate the kind gesture, we hope you understand that we are not able to perform. It sounds like Sam has a lot of interesting things planned, though, and we’ve certainly had some entertaining times at past Projektfests. Philly is a cool town, too, so definitely check it out if you have the chance to attend!

Ardor Remastered Reissue Now on iTunes
After a long delay, you can finally purchase the newly expanded Ardor [Remastered Reissue] on iTunes. This 2007 version of Love Spirals Downwards’ classic 1994 sophomore album includes 3 bonus tracks; a live recording of the classic “Write in Water,” an unreleased outtake from the album sessions called “Oisin and Niam,” and an alternate mix of “I Could Find It Only By Chance,” also from the original album sessions. Once again, band founder, Ryan Lum, completely remastered the album from the original DATs to bring out more sonic clarity than ever before, and the artwork has been recreated from the original photograph to striking results!

The ‘Aitu’ EP — originally announced in early 2003 — will be officially released June 10, 2008, but is available online now via Projekt. This 4-song digipac is currently #6 on the Projekt Top 10 – congrats!
Idylls and Ardor Reissue Reviews
More reviews for the reissues of our first 2 albums have appeared online on MusicTap, Re:Gen Mag (Idylls and Ardor), two.one.five magazine (Idylls and Ardor), and The Mick – a downloadable PFD magazine. Some are better than others, but I guess you have to take the bad with the good on the old Internet.

Idylls Remastered Reissue #1 on Projekt.com!
The Projekt.com Top 10 currently lists the brand new Love Spirals Downwards – Idylls Remastered Reissue at the #1 spot, followed closely by Love Spirals Downwards – Ardor Remastered Reissue at #3. Trailing slightly behind is the new Lovespirals – Long Way From Home (which was actually released by Chillcuts, not Projekt) at the #8 position and Lovespirals – Windblown Kiss — which Projekt released back in 2002 — at #9. With the #5, #6, and #10 albums being comps that include tracks by Love Spirals Downwards and Lovespirals, as well, I guess you could say that I’m pretty much dominating the Projekt charts this week!
