Noiseplus Music to release SPC ECO, pre-sales begin today!!

This is something that we are really thrilled about.

We began our music label Noiseplus Music purely for the purpose of enabling us to release our own music. Recently something has come up that we just could not resist.

For the first time ever, Noiseplus Music will be releasing another band!!

SPC ECO is Dean Garcia's latest musical project. The group includes Dean's bass and production skills alongside the angelic vocals of Rose Berlin and Joey Levenson's Sonic Guitar FX. Dean of course worked with us on The Secret Meeting.

We love the CD and we think you will too. The CD, entitled 3-D, is a brilliant ride, and we couldn't be more excited to get a chance to present it to you.

The release date is scheduled for April 21st, pre-sales are starting today!!! Check the store for sound samples & details.

Here is a little preview of what to expect...

SPC ECO (pronounced Space Echo after the vintage Roland 201), is a spaced out hybrid of "nu gaze tripadelica" that combines soul-lifting, mind expanding, heart soothing bliss with monolithic beats, heavy bass grooves, and layers of effects...a beautiful cacophony of ambient noise echoes.

Into the Future...Collide on NCIS

Into the Future...Collide on NCIS

We are starting 2009 with a BANG!!!

We have some GREAT news... our song "Head Spin" from Two Headed Monster has been included on the NCIS Soundtrack!!!.

NCIS is currently the #1 TV series in the US with 20 million viewers per week. NCIS has used Collide's music in Abby's lab since the inception of the show, so we are super thrilled to be included on the soundtrack.

The soundtrack is a 2 disc CD. Disc two features music from Abby's Lab. Abby (Pauley Perrette), is the ultra loveable perky goth, who works in the forensics lab and listens to cool music, including Collide.

All of the music on the soundtrack is set for prominent placement in NCIS episodes beginning in January. You can hear Collide on the show on Tuesday Jan 6th 8pm ET/PT. At the end of the show they will announce the music featured on that nights show.

The NCIS website is very cool and interactive with the entire track listing, NCIS Soundtrack News, Artists Bios, 90 second clips of each song, links to fan sites and artists websites, and song lyrics available for those songs with vocals.

The soundtrack is now available on Amazon for Pre-Order.

Here is the track listing:

"TWO HEADED MONSTER could well be the breakout album for Collide, bringing them a much broader fan base than just the dressed in black set. One well-placed track on a TV series or a movie soundtrack could propel them into the spotlight. Unlike a lot of bands who achieve "overnight success", if TWO HEADED MONSTER is any indication, Collide are ready for it."

"This is what Cristina Scabbia's side-project with Trent Reznor might sound like."

e're still working hard on getting the word out there about "Two Headed Monster". We put three new reviews up on our reviews page from Bite Me, Radio-Active-Music, and The Triskelion Society.

If you've already got your copy, then tell your friends to get it. Tell your grandma, tell your hamster, tell your favorite dominatrix. Post a blog somewhere...we really appreciate all of your help.

And don't forget to sign up for the Collide mailing list, because from time to time we send out discount codes for the store, and other news you probably need to know. The mailing list is on the bottom right of the page at Collide.net, which is probably where you are right now.

"...some of the band's best work to date, "Two Headed Monster" offers some of their most intricately written songs, while still maintaining that classic Collide sound."-Radio-Active-Music

"The fourth studio release from, the appropriately dubbed “darkwave” band, Collide is a must have for your scene music collection. Industrial sounds and melodic rhythms by Statik blended with the often haunting, never disappointing vocals of kaRIN form the perfect audio soundtrack (minus some sounds of pain of course) for your next bondage and flogging scene."-The Triskelion Society
