LOUVES (She-Wolves) CD4 Coming auwoooh soon!

Hey Lycans!

Just a quick note to let you know, we are close to announcing our next release, LOUVES!

With our 4th release, LOUVES, Lycantrop honors the spirit of the feminine divine, presenting the unique and powerful talents of she-wolves Kala, Nasha, Yara and Labrini. Let the she-wolves take you beyond moments, beyond time, beyond thoughts of male/female or any other illusory versions of separation. For the act of creation is only complete when you join in! As a gentle reminder of the ever-subjective and dual nature of experience, we hope you will agree that these vibrations are not only feminine but also and simply: excellent music.


Releasing in September. Sound Samples, album art and more info will be online soon. Mastering by MadMaXstering.

Wishing you much daysun and nighthowling!

With love,
K Lycan

ps - artwork will be 16 page booklet based on original sand paintings by Charley Case, together with David Demazy with handpainted adaptations by Lycan sister Darshana Bolt, whose artwork (and singing and dancing) are frequently on display in Burlington, Vermont. A recent review of her artwork is here.

Here, you can see the front cover and last page of the booklet:

Hybrides Evolution project updates/little contest

Nice to feel support vibrations, we receive and retransmit to the whole scene, we are just a cell in the organism. :-)

When I posted, I left off a couple of projects because I did not have the very latest info. I'm now updated and, since i love word jumbles (really!), how about this:

PA SWORE A RAT ROAR!

First person (1 winner only, you can submit on any forum/group or send email to lycantrop.records@gmail.com) to unscramble the 2 artists hidden inside: Hybrides Evolution CD is yours.

If you know the answer, you are diswualified, and please STFU (shut the bleep up). ;-)

Hybrides Evolution is coming soon: LYCANTROP RECORDS LYCCD003

Head's up - heavy music dropping your way! Hardhat recommended.


Title: Various Artists: "Hybrides Evolution"
Release Date: April, 2010
Cover Art: Neil Gibson

Release notes aren't ready yet but the release date is fast approaching, so we thought we better let you folks know what we're cooking. Hybrides Evolution contains 100% collaboration tracks - no solo projects. Here are some of the projects appearing on the release: Yara (VE), Underground Directive (BE/PT), Fractal Error (GR), Silent Horror (IN), Venom Sense (HU), DarkShiRe (GR), Energy Loop (IS), InSector (HU), Fatal Discord (JP), Select Project (RU), Malkaviam (VE), White Wizard (IN), Mind Game (IN), Detonator (GR), Krono Psy (PT), Dark Elf (FR/GR)...

We were not sure if all that creative soundblasting would be enough to satisfy, so we are also releasing a COMPANION (Digital ONLY) BONUS EP - a free download from our webshop for anyone who buys the full release (in digital or physical form). It will also be for sale through our exclusive partner for digital distribution, DistElectronic. Artists: Surprise for now

Samples won't be ready until mid-March!

Sending best vibes,

~ Your Lycan Crew

Hi Friends, little update..

First, we are NOT stopping Lycantrop Records! Not sure where these rumors started. Maybe because I blogged that we move to a new location? Yes, we are moving and the studio may be down for 1 month, but our release schedule will not be affected.

We will have 2 to 3 releases next year. Nelson is almost done compiling HYBRIDES EVOLUTION, which will be 100% collaboration (2 or more projects) tracks. A challenge to compile a good story with such diverse input, but the finished result will deliver a highly concentrated smorgasbord of sound.
Expected Release date: March or April

After that: Lycantrop DJs Iguana and Corious are compiling something nice and hot to go along with the summer sunshine.

For autumn, we have TIGHT SHIP, all tracks custom-produced around one common theme. Since "loose lips sink tight ships", I won't say more about this one so early on, but stay tuned.

ps - We are thrilled to be syncing up with DIST ELECTRONIC for our digital distribution: Distorted Shire is the first release they will manage, release date is 8 December

pps - just a few Lycantrop Records "v 1.0" tshirts left! A perfect holiday gift - see our special package deals: http://www.lycantrop-rec.com/shop.html (click on the TSHIRT symbol)

Thanks for putting us in the Psyshop charts AGAIN!!

You've done it again. We were so happy and apprecaitive when Lycans' Meeting hit the top 20 charts for Psyshop, but I can honestly say, we did not expect it to happen again with our second release. It is summertime, everyone is traveling, and we have not had much time to promote this release.

But, wow, guess what! DISTORTED SHIRE just arrived at Psyshop and is already number 17 in their charts!

Thanks SOOOO much for your support. As many of you know, these CDs were handmade with love and dedication to the community.

Every little bit helps us to stay 1000% focused on our mission of TRANSFORMATION-through-TRANCE FORMATION!!

Lycans Meeting hits #14 on Psyshop Charts!
