A message from Digital Noise Academy...
"Digital Noise Academy is a group of six like-minded musicians who can make awesome music together. This is essentially a dream project for the six, busy music professionals, that make up DNA. We have three full-time music producer/mixers, one solo artist, and two band members. See each members Bio below and head to the official Kickstarter page for more.
We have already completed two songs “Melting Inside” and “Thursday Night Party”, so we have completed the “proof of concept” stage of our project. Both these songs are currently available for free on our website HERE.
What we need now is funding that is adequate enough to cover recording costs and making the rewards. This is mostly recording studio fees and CD and Vinyl manufacturing. We already have more than a handful of additional songs started, we just need the funding that Kickstarter can provide to help us complete our dream of a finished and released album.
Since DNA is a very collaborative project, we have reflected that in our rewards. Three of the rewards actually include making music with us.
If our goal of $20,000 is funded, this is how we plan to use it:
-$10k for recording costs.
-$10k for reward fulfillment (CD's, T-shirts, etc).
