Wordsmith Scores "Death & Honor" Track for Platinum



Wordsmith Scores "Death & Honor" Track for Platinum


Attention Video Game Enthusiasts!

Nu Revolution Entertainment is continually searching for ways to give new exposure to our founder and franchise artist Wordsmith. As part of our global marketing plan this dedicated push began back in 2008 with a promotional contract signed with Joint One Radio of Japan. This partnership made Joint One the greatest promoter of Wordsmith in the Far East and was not long in bringing opportunities for exposure in many markets, the newest of which being the realm of Video Games.

Often considered the medium of the future, video gaming is an industry on the cutting edge of technology much like the cinema of the mid twentieth century. Artists and musicians now view the gaming industry as a suitable platform to showcase their craft, and thanks to Joint One, independent grind sensation Wordsmith has joined the party on one of the most hotly anticipated games of 2009, MadWorld.

Developed by PlatinumGames and published by Sega, MadWorld is eagerly awaited as the new hope for mature gaming on the Nintendo Wii console. This stylized video game pushes cartoon violence to the extreme, however developers intend the game to be seen in a comical light what with the over-the-top absurdities of the game-play. The player controls Jack, a mechanic with a chainsaw on his arm, as he competes in a royal rumble style game show called Death Watch. Players can look forward to fun, creative and violent ways to dispatch hordes of evil contenders as you work towards the 100 million dollar grand prize.

MadWorld makes great stylistic leaps both with striking visuals and a diverse audio soundtrack. The color scheme involves only three colors, a stark black and white canvas made bright red with the blood spillage of your enemies. In fitting with the style and vision the game was given an upbeat Rap soundtrack to entertain and engage the player throughout the contest. Nu Revolution artist Wordsmith is an unsigned artist fortunate enough to be involved with the project.

Wordsmith wrote the song "Death & Honor" to be used as music for one of many boss battles throughout the game. Word had this to say about the opportunity: "It was an honor to score some music for the Nintendo Wii's first true action game MadWorld as I was a video game junkie growing up. Due to my music, I only find myself playing video games with my kids, but I look at this like I'm coming full circle. I have to give a big thanks to my Japan Marketing Reps Joint One Radio. I just signed a two year extension with them… so I look forward to more projects like this and a lasting imprint in the Japan Market."

MadWorld was released on March 10th in the US and April 10th Overseas for Nintendo Wii consoles.

Saint Anger's Killa Beast Dropping 04/29 on ForeverDC.com


SAINT ANGER'S THE KILLA BEAST EP
THERE'S NO MORE BEAST'S AFTER THIS


URL: killabeast2009The Killa Beast EP is Saint Anger's second solo release from the Bizzle Boy label. Fan's who have sampled this EP consider it to be Saint's victory lap around his would be competition, if there is any.

"
If the Champagne Room album was the funeral of his hatazz, then The Killa Beast EP is the wake!"
- E.R./Exec. Producer

"The Killa Beast EP is some of New Zealand Producer Cubz best work yet. Saint & cpbeats.com make a great team!"
- Jason Easley/
Foreverdc.com

Saint Anger wrote most of the Killa Beast EP while visiting family in North Carolina. Returning to North Carolina weekend after weekend brought back raw, strong and sad
memories th
at Saint experienced while living their in 2001-2003.

The energy of his NC visits served as Saint's template for harder street tracks that he intentionally did not do in bulk on the Champagne Room and also the chance to experiment with different styles of music and flow. Killa Beast is no doubt a project that fans will experience, relate to and appreciate.



This great body of work will feature 10 tracks of Saints signature story telling, word play and snatching hooks. EP includes the RnB stylings of S
aints long time friend and MadeMen artist, Syn. Look for the Bizzle Boy Affiliates track "Fallin Out The Drop" that features all of the MADEMEN
crew: Young Cratic, J D'wayne, Prinze Naseem, and Syn as well as Virginia's leader of the new school Domoh.

ATTENTION: Get the EP free off of http://www.foreverdc.com/ 04/29/2009-05/15/2009.

Grand Opening of Club WH- Candlelight vigil in honor of Baird Jones



Candlelight vigil in honor of late NYC Night Life Guru and Webster Hall legend Baird Jones

The Grand Opening of Club WH and
Circus and multi million dollar renovation of former Webster Hall!
Americas First Nightclub!!!



New York City
Nightlife entrepreneur and owner John JE Englebert (Quo, Myst, Retox, Prime, Prepost and Suzie Wong venues) will join over 3,000 people on 4 floors as they open the doors of New York Citys newest nightclub and multimillion dollar renovation of Club WH, formerly Webster Hall on this Saturday April 4th 2009. The club will be called Circus on Saturdays.

A candlelight vigil will be organized by Englebert and other nightclub and industry professionals this Saturday night in honor of the late Baird Jones who served as the curator for Webster Hall for decades and was a legend in clubs in the Big Apple since Studio 54. He was a major player in the press and media in New York City for years. A life-size photo of Jones will be placed in the DJ booth for generations.

Built in 1886, Webster Hall was the first nightclub in America. For over 120 years, this majestic landmark building has housed New York Citys wildest events, as party-goers have stamped out their inhibitions and expressed their greatest desires within its hallowed halls.

And now they are at it again. In 2009, Webster Hall completed a multi-million dollar renovation. While restoring and rejuvenating the classical theater architecture, they have added posh amenities and cutting edge technology to, once again, create an air of ageless celebration and adventure.

As the last remaining venue of New York Citys legendary Big Club Era of the 80s and 90s, the new Webster Hall is destined to introduce a whole new generation of party revelers to nightlife that is beyond their imagination! Englebert AKA JE will be on hosting duties as he has worked numerous clubs in the 90s including the infamous Tunnel and Twilo nightclubs and found very fit to show his skills and remember Mr Jones in a special way.

CIRCUS will bring back the Shows. It will bring back the feeling. It will bring back the magic. It will inspire you to remember the first time you set foot in a club and fell in love with the night..

CIRCUS Saturdays
The greatest party on earth.

CIRCUS will bring back the shows.
It will bring back the feeling.
It will bring back the magic.
It will inspire you to remember the first time you set foot in a club...and fell in love with the night.

Leave your inhibitions at home and expect the unexpected. We'll do the rest.

Four massive floors of adventure.
Flying trapeze
Go go girls
Snake charmers
Tattoos
Mind blowing Aerial Acts
Dazzling Fire Displays
Fortune tellers
Magicians
Popcorn
Cotton Candy
And so much more.......

Curtains open at 10PM.
