X_MAS DISRUPTION 2019 / // JULIEN-K HARMONIC DISRUPTOR EMERGENCY HOLIDAY SURPRISE RELEASE / TRANSMISSION DATE 12-25-2019 / // PREPARE FACE MELTING PROCEDURE. .. . …

TO OUR INNER CIRCLE, OUR MOST BELOVED FANS AND FRIENDS THAT HELPED US FUND THE FIRST “NOT TOTALLY FINISHED WORK” THAT WE HAVE EVER CROWD FUNDED! YOUR SUPPORT, TRUST, AND FAITH IN US IS SO APPRECIATED. WE KNOW IT'S BEEN A LONG WAIT. WE HOPE YOU ARE AS EXCITED TO FINALLY LISTEN TO THIS MUSIC AS WE ARE TO FINALLY SHARE IT WITH YOU. I HOPE THIS BLOWS YOUR CHRISTMAS MORNING OUT OF THE WATER (OR SNOW) AND I CAN'T WAIT TO READ WHAT YOU GUYS HAVE TO SAY ON THE SOCIALS!

DISCLAIMER / CAVEAT / SOCIAL EXPERIMENT:

WE THOUGHT LONG AND HARD ABOUT “WHEN” TO RELEASE THIS ALBUM AND “HOW” TO RELEASE THIS ALBUM - WE WANTED THE PEOPLE THAT ACTUALLY MADE IT HAPPEN TO HAVE IT FIRST, YET WE ALSO NEED TO HAVE AN ACTUAL “RELEASE AND MARKETING PLAN” THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO PROPERLY PROMOTE THE ALBUM IN THE MODERN WAY OF SERVING SINGLES TO THE MAJOR DSP’S WITH ACTUAL MARKETING AND “PLANS” BEHIND THE ALBUM SO THIS WORK THAT WE ARE SO PROUD OF DOESN'T JUST “GET SWEPT UNDER THE CARPET IN ONE WEEK” (WHICH IS WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF WE SIMPLY UPLOADED THE ALBUM TO SPOTIFY, ETC., ALL AT ONCE).

WE DECIDED THAT WE WOULD “TRUST OUR CORE FANS AND INNER CIRCLE” WITH OUR FINISHED ALBUM.

WE THINK OF YOU AS OUR PARTNERS IN THIS. IF IT WASN'T FOR YOU WE COULD NOT HAVE AFFORDED TO MAKE THIS ALBUM - AND WE WANTED TO GIVE YOU WHAT YOU GUYS WANT AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE - IN THE MOST FUN AND SURPRISING WAY. WE HOPE THIS IS A HUGE DAY FOR ALL OF US!

WHAT WE ARE ASKING OF YOU IS:

LET’S SEE IF WE CAN KEEP THIS FINISHED MASTERED VERSION OF THE ALBUM OFF THE INTERNET UNTIL JULIEN-K RELEASES IT TO THE WORLD!!

THE FIRST SINGLE, “SHUT DOWN YOUR SOUL” WILL DROP IN JAN. - THEN THE WHOLE WORLD CAN HEAR THAT SONG. THE NEXT SINGLE WILL DROP APPROX A MONTH LATER DEPENDING ON HOW THE 1ST SINGLE DOES, AND ON UNTIL WE’LL HAVE THE WHOLE ALBUM RELEASED IN ABOUT 2-4 MONTHS (AGAIN, DEPENDS ON HOW WELL THE SINGLES DO!). WE PLAN ON 2-4 SINGLES TOTAL BRINGING US INTO A MAJOR UNDISCLOSED TOUR IN LATE MARCH.

THE PERKS & ALL THE AMAZING ARTWORK IN THAT IS PART OF THE JKHD WORLD WILL REMAIN A SURPRISE FOR ALL OF YOU TO LOOK FORWARD TO SOON - WE ARE MANUFACTURING PHYSICAL AS I TYPE!

I HAVE A FEELING WE CAN COUNT ON YOU TO KEEP THE MUSIC OFF THE NET - YOU CAN PLAY IT FOR ANYONE YOU WANT!! TALK ABOUT IT ONLINE AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!!! REVIEW IT! I DON'T EVEN CARE IF I HEAR A CLIP OF IT BEING PLAYED IN THE BACKGROUND OF A VIDEO OF YOU ENJOYING IT - I THINK YOU GUYS GET IT???? WE’LL SEE! WE JUST WANT TO KEEP CONTROL OF THE ACTUAL MASTERED AND MIXED ALBUM TRACKS UNTIL THE BAND OFFICIALLY RELEASES THEM.

AND IF THIS DOESN'T WORK? WELL. IT’S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD. BUT IT’S FUN TO SEE IF WE CAN ALL PUT THIS HYPE AND SUBTLE MARKETING MACHINE TO WORK AND MAKE THE REST OF THE WORLD “WANT” THIS ALBUM AND FEEL THAT LITTLE PING OF “MAN I WISH WE WOULD HAVE CONTRIBUTED!!!” (WE WANT TO GIVE THE OUTSIDE WORLD A SEVERE CASE OF BLUE BALLS).

AND MOST OF ALL: THAT WE IN JULIEN-K CARE IMMENSELY ABOUT THE PEOPLE THE HELP US OVER AND OVER AND OVER TO MAKE THIS MUSIC AND STAY ALIVE! YOU GET IT FIRST!!! WE LOVE YOU ALL! CAN’T WAIT TO HEAR WHAT YOU THINK!!!

/// MERRY CHRISTMAS FUCKERS!!!
