Post subject: The TPH donation experiment! Fantasy donations. Posted: Jun 08, 2010 [18:12] |
|
|
If you haven't figured out what this is about just yet, here is the post to check out:
http://www.globaldomination.se/forums/viewtopic.php?t=8274
What I want you guys to do, all of you who reads this, is to e-mail us at theprojecthate@gmail.com (ofcourse only if you feel you can donate anything at all) and tell us what you can throw our way to make the next album happen. I will ofcourse spend every little cent I can since I absolutely live for this and we have the best damned material lying around that we ever created. I do not ask anyone to donate a hundred bucks, a thousand bucks or even 10 bucks. I just wanna see if this is even doable in the long-run.
Just e-mail us with a figure you think you could hand over to finance the recording and I will keep you guys updated on how everything looks in this fantasy-donation thing as we go along.
To make it easy, put the amount in dollars. Spread the word about this and we'll see what happens. I wouldn't mind one bit to not sign with a label again and release this monster in high quality for free (not really "free" since you guys then would have paid for it to happen).
So, again - spread the word. I will fire up a document and keep everything in check and see how shit stacks up as far as eventual donations would go. This way we will know if it's even doable to work something this way.
Would it be the first time in history that the fans pay for a recording if it happens? I wouldn't be surprised. What would surprise me though is if this actually would work. We’ll let this experiment run for quite a bit naturally.
Last off - lemme state that I will keep you updated on how much we get in fantasy donations, as well as if we get this going I will ofcourse stop taking donations as soon as I see we have reached the needed budget.
It’s worth a try anyways, if not just for the hell of it.
Note:
KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS JUST AN EXPERIMENT TO SEE IF IT WOULD ACTUALLY BE POSSIBLE TO DO SHIT THIS WAY IF NEEDED. DO NOT DONATE ANYTHING FOR THE TIME BEING - WE'LL JUST RETURN IT TO YOU, NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU TELL US TO KEEP IT. _________________

I just wanted to add that if this really does turn out to be enough, then maybe you can give some incentives, like if we raise X amount of $ people who donated up to 5$ will get the album in mp3, up to 10$ in flac, up to 20$ on cd, up to 30$ signed cd. You get the point.
I'll spread the word as wide as I can!  |

I seriously think that no matter the donation you should get the album in whatever format you see fit and what's possible to arrange. Also, I believe it would be appropriate to give you this album thru a specific site with a code or something so you will get it exclusively. It will eventually be on the net as always, but this way you who donate would have it exclusively for quite some time.
This is an idea I like.
Also, some 800 dollars total in fantasy donations have been offered to us already. That is impressive. Spread the word now and let's see if this thing actually can be pulled off. _________________

Very appreciated. Very, very appreciated. This needs to be spread as widely as possible if it's going to have the slightest of chances of working out.
Also, almost 1000 dollars worth of fantasy donation's been made now. _________________

"donation" sent...
like i said in my email to k, there's just too much shitty music being pumped out daily for us fans to allow actual creators and innovators of new music to not be able to create.
of course it also all boils down to me being selfish, i NEED your music to be made as much as you need to make it...
no new tph? fuck that scenario...open your wallets kiddies ;) |

Well, after noticing the other day that my closet now has a totally own section of TPH shirts (don't even know how many they are+ one more on the way this week). Making a donation for a new album wouldn't be that strange actually just to see it been made. _________________

You guys fucken bring a smile to my face.
About 1200 dollars fantasy donated so far. Lemme say that I have actually gotten the word from some label people as well as people in bands I have never heard of making an offer.
I don't know what to say really... Maybe this thing will work. That would be insane. Long way to go though. _________________

For me, I just see it as "I am donating money up front to be able to get my copy of the new CD". Hence why I'd pay $15, easily, to finance the new record just cos that is what I would think is a reasonable price for a CD in a store (roundabout 12/13 euros is what I'd pay). I fucken hate overpriced CDs, no consumer really needs to pay $25 for a CD unless it's a fucken super deluxe edition with 3 bonus dvd's and 10 bonus tracks. It doesn't cost that much to manufacture a CD.
But if I can get an amazing album for a decent quality price I'm prepared to shell out money for a product.
I think this is also a consumer thing - nobody wants to pay for a product they can get, essentially, for free. But I want physical copies and artwork of my CDs - I can lose all my files in a hard drive crash, but I can still listen to music on my stereo.
I want a CD with a lyrics booklet like I want to read a newspaper in the morning. _________________ I will go now

Sure, but then it will be one of the first times it happens. For real. Not only by words.  _________________ The dead know only one thing : it is better to be alive... |

Quoting for relevance:

What I naturally aim for first and foremost if to be able to record the damn thing. To professionally print cd's will cost quite a bit. As mentioned, there will be booklets and whatnot available for downloading if it comes to fruition this whole thing.
And also, I don't care if you would donate 1 dollar or a hundred, as mentioned earlier. What it comes down to in the end is that it all racks up to be enough to get this beast recorded, and then given to you.

Yeah. And it would be absolutely fucken breathtaking. _________________
