For those remixers out there and people who wish to cover my track “Unfair”, I’ve got some good news for you! I’m giving you the stems so you can go ahead and slice away at those files and remix it into your own creation! I look forward to seeing and hearing what kind of madness you guys create!

Unfair… and the future!
If you’ve been following me on Facebook, you would know that I’ve been working on reconstructing the single “Unfair” off my first album to give it a little more punch and to make it as aggressive as I originally intended it to be. It will actually be featured on the upcoming album “Breathing the Machine”.
I did, however, say that I might actually have this track done by the end of this year. Conveniently I finished the mastering process last night and had a listen to it on the big boy speakers and was finally happy with it.
So before I get to it (unless you’ve already scrolled down and downloaded it as you’re reading this), I just wanted to thank you all for being with me this year. It’s been an incredible year full of knowledge and making new friends and catching up with all the old ones and doing my absolute best to keep track of everything that’s been going on in my life. You are all the reason why I continue to strive to make Bullet of Reason better and better (at least, I think it’s getting better… for all I know you could be thinking it’s a piece of crap), and I plan on involving each and every one of you on the upcoming album somehow to try and show my thanks. 2012 was a big year, but the plans I have for 2013 are even bigger….. maybe even hopefully getting a chance to see you in the crowd somewhere and get in front of a camera to start making some videos………. I digress.
Happy New Year to all you kick ass peeps out there and here’s to 2013!

Remix Black Widow and listen to Breathing the Machine
“So… do you like stuff??”
Anytime I ask anyone if they like stuff is usually when there’s awkward silence and I’m forced to break it somehow. In this case, I’m actually presenting you with stuff that hopefully you’ll like… without the awkward part.
First off, I’d like to say that the title of this entry pretty much says it all. If you’re a remixer or if you want to start remixing…. or if you listened to Black Widow and thought to yourself “Damn, I could do so much better than the original; I want to remix the hell out of that track!” well now’s your lucky day! Head on over to this link and download the remix files for your remixing pleasure! I’d love to hear what you do to it!
Secondly, I’ve also uploaded the demo version of the title track from my upcoming album “Breathing the Machine”. It will be fully mixed and mastered (along with all the other tracks you’ve already heard from the EP as well as some material you haven’t had the chance to hear yet) next year at some time that would pose convenient for both myself and (hopefully) the studios I’ll be mastering them in. So if you wanna take a listen to what Breathing the Machine sounds like, then now’s your chance as it is now live on my SoundCloud page. If you don’t feel like leaving this page and you want to hear it, I’ve embedded the SoundCloud link at the bottom of this post (awwww, how nice of me!).
More goodies to come my friends, 2012 is going to be one hell of a busy year! Thank you all once again for your support and taking the time to listen to the noise that I like to call music!
EP, ethereal|Lust, PD17 and Step Zer0!
Alright boys and girls here goes…
While the Breathing the Machine – EP is not yet ready for your downloading pleasure I can say that it’s in the final step and will be sent off to FiXT Store over the next few days for them to process and get it up and running in the store.
So why the hell have I been delaying this release? Well, remember how I promised a remix of Chaotika by Martin Harp? Martin ran into a couple studio problems and then moving and then lack of internet. This entire phase made it quite difficult for him to work on and send me the remix. No fault on him (still love you Martin!). I’ve spoke with him and the good people over at FiXT and we’ve come up with a solution…
I don’t want to delay the EP anymore, so I’ll be sending them the EP with 5 tracks (4 originals and 1 remix by Clarck Cunt). Then, when you purchase the EP from FiXT you will be able to re-download the EP once Martin’s remix is complete, free of charge. I will of course notify you of the updated download file so you can go back to the FiXT Store and re-download it. Send me an email with your proof of purchase and I’ll will save it so that when the remix and updated EP becomes available I will personally send you an email telling you to go and re-download the EP from your downloads. If you run into any issues, please let me know and I’ll be sure to sort it out.
With that being said, when can you get the EP? Hopefully in the next week or so! I’ll be sure to let you know as soon as it’s up and running (so stay tuned).
*phew* okay, so part one is done…
As you probably already have heard, I’m also working in my band with the lovely Roxanne in ethereal|Lust. So far, the response has been full of kick ass and positive vibes. We’re both extremely happy that you’ve been enjoying what you’ve been hearing and we promise more to come soon. We’re working on putting together a small little EP over the next few weeks so that you have something else to listen to that isn’t Bullet of Reason.
More details to come. Head on over to our new site at http://www.ethereal-lust.com
We’re also on Facebook and Twitter!
*part 2 down… you still with me?*
You’ve also probably seen based on my most recent posts that I’ve finally brought Platinum Dragon17 back to life with my new track “ReConstruct”. Right now it looks like people are enjoying it which makes me feel confident with bringing PD17 back to life with this style.
I’ve also put the stems up for you to download if you’d like to remix it! You can get the stems here
If you’re remixing the song, send me your finished remix to platinumdragon17@gmail.com or Soundcloud dropbox

*last section, I promise*
Over the weekend I took on the task of remixing Step Zer0’s track “I Will Not Break” and gave it some Bullet of Reason tweaks by adding my own guitar, backup vox and what is apparently full of bad-assery.
Head on over to their website and show some love! You can also join their Facebook Page as an added bonus!

And that should do it for now! Expect another update over the next few days about the Breathing the Machine – EP and where you can go find it.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to go get me some coffee…

Progress and Remix
I’m sorry for the lack of updates recently. I’ve been busy getting a lot of stuff done. I feel like I keep saying that but seriously, it’s true. I’m hoping to get some more material ready for your ear drums within the next week or two. I’ve essentially thought out a pretty sweet skeleton of what (Sanity) Through the Eyes of the Insane will sound like. I haven’t done any vocal work yet but lyrics are done… well, kinda. I have to jam on them first for a little bit. I’m sure there will be some tweaks that will be needed. This track is hopefully going to be punchy and catchy.
I’ve also been busy working on my Blue Stahli “Corner” remix. It’s pretty different than what I’m used to doing so it’s taking me some time to get adjusted to the sound of the mix. I’ll be sure to supply you with a link once I’m happy with it and it becomes a final mix instead of draft upon draft upon draft.
Well, that’s all I’ve got for now. You’ll hear from me soon again, I promise!
Clarck Cunt – Savage Times Part II (MP3 Album)
And now you can get it! The release of Clarck C’s Savage Times Part II features yours truly on vocals as well as my own remix and Clarck’s remix. It’s avaliable in the FiXT Store and you can go and get it!
Did someone order updates?
So there’s been a lot going on, which is the reason why I haven’t updated in awhile. I’m sure you’ve been patiently waiting for me to bring some news and probably thinking that I actually am dead and that I was lying to you in a previous post… but truth be told, I’m still alive. For those of you wishing I actually was dead – sorry, I guess.
I completed my remix of Clarck C‘s The Great Hunger, and I’m pleased to say that I’m happy with how it turned out. I’m even more pleased to say that he’s happy with the way that it’s turned out, so I guess it’s a pretty damn good win-win situation for the both of us. It will be a part of his next chapter release and will be avaliable on FiXT for download. I will provide a link to the download once it’s been uploaded.
When Clarck told me that I was going to be featured on FiXT, I felt like I was about to crap bricks. “You mean, my name is going to be somewhere on FiXT?! Available for download with your chapter, through FiXT? HOLY (explicit words)!!” Needless to say, I’m pretty stupid excited for this. Want to hear a quick listen before it’s released (don’t worry, I have Clarck’s permission to share)? OF COURSE YOU DO!
What’s also cool is that Clarck has finished his remix of Chaotika and it will be featured on my upcoming album. It freaking rocks and I’m sure you’ll dig it!
Speaking of Chaotika, another one of my music idols has taken on the task of remixing it. Martin Harp approached me and wanted to remix it. How in the hell could I say no?! I’ve been listening to his remixes on FiXT Remix and was extremely happy that he came to me to remix it. More updates about that in the near future.
So what about me? What about the new material I keep telling you about? Well, I’ve decided to take on a project that has been burning at me for quite awhile. When I was in my buddy’s band called DoublEdged, we came up with a track called (Sanity) Through the Eyes of the Insane. We never really fine tuned it to the point where we all enjoyed it. Ever since the band dismembered, they’ve given me permission to use the lyrics and come up with my own tracks for Bullet of Reason (Chaotika was also a song we came up with as a band). The work we did will now be done through me and luckily they’re really damn cool about me doing that. I always wanted to get out what we couldn’t through any means, and I’m happy to say that I’ll be doing just that. So, I’ve been sitting and trying to figure out how I wanted to get Sanity of the ground and out using the Bullet of Reason style. After a couple nights of looking at a blank screen and then re-working the lyrics, I’m happy to say that I’ve got something! YAY! Here’s a quick preview of what I’m working on. It’s a quick instrumental, but hell, it’s better than nothing!
And that’s about it so far. There will be more updates to come, so stay tuned!!!
Sitting while stemming
I’m sure there’s a joke somewhere for that title.
