AUGUST Recap / SEPTEMBER Plans!

Hey all! Just thought I'd pop in and update everyone on last month!

August was amazing. THE OCCULUS OCCULT 陰陽師 did amazingly well, as did more orders for Girl's Love 少女愛 Physical Discs AND Digital Sales.

I played a show with Denton based Shoegaze band Rei Clone, who played an AMAZING set! I ended up making TWO remixes for them, and that helped them get some attention, which I am very happy about!
The show was at local Houston's The Clinic, a very humble venue! Not sure when the next show is, but I will definitely have more merch this time around!

September is going to be a month I like to call "TAKING OVER ROYALTY('s)" I will be focusing on gathering royalties and subscription based services so I can actually start doing this full time.

THIS MEANS that if you like using Youtube, you may see some ads. If you do, most likely on mobile, know that it is there because of me. THIS DOES NOT MEAN that you have to disable Ad Blocker or anything. But If you DO want to support me on Youtube, consider turning OFF ad blocker for my channel <3

Also, subscriptions like Bandcamp and Patreon will be revamped I hope. It's really hard to have certain services like Patreon to have rewards when I release almost everything for free. FOR THOSE WHO DO have me on Patreon, I am planning on releasing PROMO CODES for physical merchandise, so you guys can have a nice little discount on things like Shirts, Coffee Mugs, Hoodies, stuff like that on my Tee Public Store!

Mostly this month, If I'm not working on new music, I WILL be working to create my empire.

 

The end game, as it ALWAYS has been, is to do this full time. THAT means as little as $1,000 a month in all my combined services is ALL I NEED to live comfortably making music for a living. JUST $1,000! Once I reach that goal, I will be able to relax a bit more!

Thank you all, and please stick around on Patreon, Bandcamp, Youtube, and Soundcloud for more music and more apparel and merchandise.

Remember, this is a ONE MAN ARMY thing. I am literally doing ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING myself, so If I don't release content for a few weeks, just know that I am working on other things that will all end up be going in my music/ image.

Thank you all for such a wonderful month of August, and I look forward to Septembers many surprises!

THE OCCULUS OCCULT 陰陽師 - Coming 10/10/2016

Occulus Occult BackgroundCHERI EDIT.png

I am working on my 5th studio album, THE OCCULUS OCCULT 陰陽師. It will be about 13-14 tracks long, feature some new artists, and will be available in a deluxe edition case, with artwork and a lyric book inside bundled with the Physical CD.


It's been a long time coming, but this album should shape up to finally pave the way for a huge project I am working on to coincide with the album. THE OCCULUS OCCULT 陰陽師 Tour.

This is a huge, HUGE step in a direction I've been trying to move towards. This means that sometime in 2017, if things work out correctly and I am funded properly, I can finally make my debut tour in the US. Won't be able to make it to european countries anytime soon (I'm still relatively unknown here in the states), BUT this US tour COULD give me the push I need with publicity to really jump start my career as a musician.

Only time will tell if I can be funded enough, and if people hear about it and find me.

It's a huge world out there, but I am hoping to make it.

Also, at each of my shows, I am trying to come up with some interesting merch to sell to you all. I purchased a Square Reader, so that should help me with physical sales when people don't have cash on them. I would highly recommend getting one if you are a small time musician like me!

Well, that's all for now. I will keep you all updated as soon as I can get enough momentum on this project.

THE OCCULUS OCCULT 陰陽師 is the future of GHOST DATA, and I hope to see you in the passenger seat of this journey I am about to take!
