Dane Curley is a music producer, songwriter, rapper, and electronic artist living in Brooklyn, New York, who got his start in underground rap music.
His album of lyrics-focused rap songs "Chain of Events" (2010) received thousands of MP3 downloads (following countless mixtape appearances in America and Norway). Later, Dane's experimental fusions of underground electronic music & indie hip hop would inspire some of Pakistan's greatest music artists, who regularly collaborate with him in that genre.
Today, Dane is focused on electronica and soundtrack music, currently producing "The Cosmic Collaboration Machine" for release on April 19th, 2024, and composing the soundtrack to a video game in partnership with the renowned Swedish metal band Dead by April, release TBA.
Yes!
Please donate to @DaneCurley via PayPal, Venmo, or CashApp, with the description/subject line of "For the CCM" and your entire donation will go toward that project.
The Cosmic Collaboration Machine will be available on Beatport for DJs, Producers, and Artists to use in their live acts.
With growing interest, Dane would consider putting together a live show experience of the CCM, but he cannot promise your favorite artist from the project would participate.
No.
Production costs on The Cosmic Collaboration Machine are very high, and the time commitment of unpaid hours is absolutely massive and probably unthinkable for most people in most life situations. Dane is in the unique position to work on this project on a near full-time basis without pay.
Without the generosity of countless musicians (players and songwriters), who freely contribute their time, music, and energy, Dane would not be able to produce the CCM.
By purchasing the Vinyl version or donating now, you help Dane breakeven on costs (vinyl production, packaging, art, website, shipping, mastering, etc.), and encourage him to produce a sequel effort (TBA?). The Cosmic Remixing Machine project has already been unlocked!
No.
And that is an emphatic "No!"
The CCM was created painstakingly from scratch at Dane Curley's direction as lead producer, and each song was made specifically for inclusion on this project. It is not a "Various Artists" or "Compilation" album.
In fact, only one song on the CCM has ever been released before, and only as a digital single. Even that song was remastered anew for inclusion on the CCM.
As such, artists were at times invited to depart from their usual genres or styles, to mingle with other artists of different perspectives and let the spirit of collaboration supersede their regular plans!
No.
While musicians should be paid for their work, the commercial state of the music industry is not prone to profitability for independent passion projects like ours.
All featured artists appear courtesy of themselves and/or their record labels and have joined the CCM in support of Dane's great idea: that we can create great music by blending our perspectives with other great artists, across cultures, time-zones, genres and styles, using the tools of the Internet. In the unlikely event that profits are amassed, the proceeds will fuel scaling The CCM to a wider audience and funding a sequel project. Please consider donating.
Yes.
In addition to donating to The Cosmic Collaboration Machine, there are other ways people can help.
The best and easiest way is to share content related to the CCM with your friends and family. Try sharing our weblink in a private message with a note about what excites you about the CCM!
Additionally, the CCM is looking for music video makers, bloggers, writers, interviewers, and podcasters to cover the project with interviews, reviews, and more. Please use the Contact page to get in touch! We're open to ideas.
The CCM has been in production since Mid-August 2023, and entered post-production in February 2024. It is scheduled for release on April 19th, 2024.
