As we grow more and more excited for what’s already shaping up for 2013, we wanted to take a look back on what 2012 meant for us. When we did, it was humbling to see it all laid out. Here’s a look back on the past year for NU.F.O.:
– We watched our fanbase grow across all our social media from a few hundred to over 20,000. Whoa. Minds = blown.
– Had many of our tracks featured on numerous blogs and radio shows including one of our personal faves, Digi10ve.
– Released 11 new tracks including a 5-song EP, “Midnight Remixed” which featured other artists remixing our work which was a personal first in both of our musical careers. It’s an amazing thing to hear your art reinterpreted by other amazingly talented musicians.
– Charted #1 for 2 weeks on PureVolume with our “Fire Fight” vocal remix of Skrillex’s track “Cat Rats” over Skrillex himself.
– Furthered our DIY approach and learned how to use video editing software to make our first music video ever for our vocal remix of “There & Back” by Wolfgang Gartner.
– We were featured on the “Into the Mix” radio show with Ioan Holland on Zone One Radio all the way over in London. We did about a half hour interview (with tracks) covering things like what influences us, what makes a good remix, how we approach EDM, remixes and more. We were then included in the 2012 wrap-up “Remixers of the Year” episode. We come in at the 33:30 mark.
– Came in 17th place out of 1400 producers in Linkin Park’s “Lost In The Echo” remix contest due entirely to your support. You guys are nothing short of amazing, we ♥ you.
– Had the TBMA remix of our track “Above the Surface” aired on BBC Radio 1 in Modestep’s mix. Comes in at the 43:30 mark.
Although these accomplishments seem grand and we are indescribably gracious for them, they pale in comparison to the greatest thing we got in the past year: an insane amount of new friendships and connections with all of you. That’s the payday for us in this, and why we give our music out free. We just love creating this art and meeting so many new people from our backyard to all over the world because of it. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We genuinely appreciate you.
So right off the bat for 2013, we’ve got a music video in the works which will feature our first track from our forthcoming sophomore record, “Still Amazed”. We expect the record to be out by late spring/early summer. We’ve got some other great remixes on deck already as well, and are starting preparations for our live setup. We’re excited for what the rest of the year will bring, the growth and transformation in our music, more awesome convo with all of you and for all the new friends we’ll make down the road. We wish you all a brilliant year in your own lives.
Want to win 2 free tickets to the sold out Sunday, May 20th date of EDC NY from us? It’s simple. Anyone can win. All you have to do is share NU.F.O. in a creative way or create something that shares NU.F.O. creatively. It could be a remix, a piece of artwork, a YouTube video, a tweet, animation, you raging to NU.F.O. at a party, a cover, or anything that you can come up with that’s creative and helps spread the NU.F.O. love. Surprise us. Tell us what you did or show us what you’ve created by emailing contest@nufoboston.com.
Show’s in 25 days. That gives you just about 3 weeks, tops, to submit an entry so we can get these tickets to you in time. We look forward to seeing what you guys come up with. We’re stoked to be able to give these out.
We are truly stoked to let you know that for the first time ever, we will be pressing actual CD’s. 🙂 This is a special limited edition EP that will not be for sale, but specifically for special distribution at both the February 3rd/Roseland Ballroom and February 4th/Terminal 5 Skrillex tour dates in NYC. There will only be 1000 made and they will never be pressed again. For those of you who want one of these limited EP’s but won’t be at either of those shows, we are giving 10 of you the opportunity to win a signed copy sent to your door.
The rules are simple and anyone has a shot. The internet is an amazing tool for finding new music. Most of us have a few go-to blogs or sites that we use to find new tunes. They may be legal, or they may not be…but since we’re giving out all our music for free, it doesn’t matter either way. So hit up your favorites, wherever you find new music and tell them about NU.F.O.! All you have to do is email the site or blog telling them about us and all our free music (most of them will have email submission links on their sites) and be sure to CC or FWD us on each email you send at contest@nufoboston.com. The top 10 people who share to the most sites will receive an autographed copy of the limited edition Skrillex EP. Oh, and they need to be legit sites or blogs. 😉 Contest ends March 1st. Any questions around this can also be sent to contest@nufoboston.com.
We hope you guys dig the look of the CD, we’re pumped on how it came out. As always, we appreciate any and all that you guys do to share our tunes with friends, strangers, whoever. We make music because we love doing this. To have anyone else love it, especially enough to feel empowered to share it, is the most epic bonus on the planet.
Oh, by the way…our ABOVE & BEYOND vs. NU.F.O. remix will be debuting on FUSiON EDM Radio, January 23rd!! We’ll post soon with details on how you can tune in and hear the premier of the track.
