8020records's blog

So if you haven't noticed there have been some changes to the website. First, you'll notice that you can create an 80/20 Records account. What can you do with an 80/20 Records account? Well, you can buy stuff! :). You can download all of the songs from our artists as well as the entire album at a discount.

In addition to downloads you will be able to purchase CDs, concert tickets, and merch in the near future. We're doing some awesome things with the store such as full streaming of all songs and downloading the album while your CD is being shipped to you. You can read up about the store here. We'll be adding more benefits to having an 80/20 Records account down the road.

Next, there is an 'Events' page now where we will list shows hosted by 80/20 as well as shows from our artists. Speaking of which, we are in talks about co-hosting a charity event with our good friends from GuerillaRoots. Nothing is definite yet but we'll keep you posted.

I'm not going to get political here but first wanted to thank everyone who went out and voted. It's important that we exercise our rights.

The Halloween show was a huge success, there were over 100 of you who showed up and many stayed to the bitter end of 11:30 PM for the costume contest. I was surprised especially for a week night so thanks to everyone who stayed, those who dressed up, and those who just came :P. After the show I got compliments from the bands as well as from the crowd so we'll definitely be doing more of these events in the future.

From now till the end of the year we'll be focusing a great deal of our time with internal matters, some I cannot discuss right now. What I can say is that we'll be working more on the website, creating content such as more episodes of the 80/20 interviews, and maybe getting more artists on the label :).

Click 60 never ceases to amaze me :).

Hey everyone!

Here's another interview with 42 Eternal about the show coming up next week.

For more information about the show click here.

So many exciting things are developing here at 80/20. First, there's an interview between 80/20 Records and 42 Eternal. You can check it out here:

Clearly there has been no editing for this film :P. I want to thank Dan Rojas and Derek Johnson for arranging the interview. Awesome job guys!

Second, we have details for the Halloween Show. It's on October 29th (yes, that's a Wednesday) at Modified Arts in Phoenix, Arizona. $5 presale, $7 at the door. Starts at 7:00 PM. There will be a costume contest where the winner will receive Rock Band 2, signed by all the artists at the show! Here's the flyer:

There are still some things to be figured out so we'll keep you posted as they come.

Hey everyone,

We've been quite busy lately keeping up with our artists. But we have many exciting things happening in the upcoming months. First off 80/20 Records will be co-hosting a Halloween show on October 29th in Phoenix, Arizona. Yes I know Halloween is on the 31st be we're just too awesome to have the show on the actual date :P. We'll keep you posted when we have more info on the event.

Many of our artists are working on amazing projects such as working on new songs for their next album. There are rough versions of some of them on Click 60's MySpace page (www.myspace.com/click60).

If you've noticed there have been a number of updates on the website. The front page now has links to our MySpace page, Facebook page, and twitter if you wish to join them. Artist profiles are done! You can now stream all songs, in full, for all artists.

That's it for now. Please let us know if you have any suggestions for the site.

It's been a while since I wrote a blog entry, sorry about that :P. There has been a lot going on with the record label. For starters we officially have two artists signed on, the first is our good friend Pitchblende (thanks Dan!). Definitely take a listen to his music if you're feeling happy, sad, annoyed, confused, joyful, content, or whatever your mood is. The second artist is the awesomeness that is 42 Eternal, definitely bringing a different sound to the table (they have a cello!). I want to thank both of them for putting faith in us for promoting their music.

We're doing quite a bit for the record label itself as well. There is a new version of the website under way and trust me it's going to be amazing when finished. Things like artist pages where you can listen to our artists, learn more about them, etc. There will also be an online store where you can buy music directly from us as well as merchandise.

Anyway just wanted to let everyone know what we're up to. We still have a long ways to go and I'm glad we have so many people coming along for the ride.

Hey everyone, I know there isn't much on the site yet. Still working on it. If you have any questions please contact us.

Anyway, in this section I will post any recent news about 80/20 Records such as links to any interviews or articles that mentions the label. Plus, I may put some related stories that I find interesting.

Just as the title suggests, this is just the beginning. Expect much more to come :).

Also, a special thanks to Marina Kaganova for the drawings. Marina you are awesome!
