Is This Thing On…?

Hey look! This kid is named Nicholas, and he’s 3 YEARS OLD. And he knew my songs! Thanks Nicholas, and to his totally awesome parents, for coming out to the show in Baltimore.

Anyway, I’m home for a few months (amazing!), and I’ll be be working on a bunch of things, so I don’t know how much free music I’ll be posting up.

I wrote some more thoughts about that and everything music-wise on my tumblr, which you can read here. 

I’ll still be hella active! Check it out:

[June 2012 - I Quit! Annual donation drive]
On the anniversary of the day I stopped working my former day job every year, I release a whole bunch of singles and open the donation jar. I have a whole 11-track album of b-sides and songs I’ve done along the way but never released, and I’ll drop it that week for anyone that donates.

[July 2012 - Some live shows]
I’ll be at Littlefield’s in Brooklyn, doing a mixed comedy/music show with comedic genius, Michael Kupperman. I’ll be at Connecticon, doing some live shows and tabling and hanging out.

[August 2012 - Slytherin Mixtape]
Me and Mikal kHill will release our follow-up to the wildly successful Browncoats Mixtape, wherein we tackle Harry Potter and the House of Slytherin. We hit a bit of a snag when Mikal’s computer went on the fritz, which is tough being that he’s the guy that, y’know, makes the beats and mixes the songs. But we will be unveiling it in grand fashion, and oh what surprises we have for you. Join the mailing list to get updates and exclusive stuff.

[August & September 2012 - Tour Tour Tour!]
After hitting up Nerdapalooza with all my closest rapping friends (Aug 3-5), I’ll be hitting the road again with a vengeance. Still working out the details, so check back, and believe me, there is a good chance I will be back to your city with some awesome friends!

[November 2012 - Noir EP]
Working with producer Khem Adam, I’ll be releasing an EP of new tracks. Think of it as a sort of follow-up to my last EP, Paper Cutters & Dangling Headphones, non-nerdy music of a noir, pulpy variety.

[2013 and Beyond]
I’ll immediately start working on my new full-length album, Series Finale.

And then, after that… WHO KNOWS!

I’ll still be updating this site with shows and other general info, and I’ll be blabbing on my twitter and facebook. As always, you can buy merch and music to support the Adam WarRock machine.

In the meantime, if you are used to getting multiple new songs from me per week why don’t you check out these guys?

Holy News Updates, Batman!

I’m on the road now, so just a blast of news updates. FIRST, scheduled a last minute booking for Friday, May 18 in Brooklyn, NY at Grand Victory 245 Grand St. It is with the homies Schaffer the Darklord and Mikal kHill, and I promise, this show will not disappoint. RSVP and info here (link).

[Top 100 Geeks You Should Be Following on Twitter - WIRED.com]
Wired.com’s GeekDad blog named me one of the top 100 geeks to follow on twitter, along with friends like MC Lars, Marian Call, MC Frontalot, and tons more! Check out the list (link)

[Interview with Hipster, Please!]
I did an interview with Hipster Please a little earlier in the year. Z. is one of my favorite long-form interviewers, so if you want to read about how my newest album came out about, you should check it out (link).

[Neo-Tokyo and Akira Guest Blog]
Thanks to everyone who downloaded the Neo-Tokyo EP this week, which you can still get here. I wrote a guest blog for You Offend Me You Offend My Family, talking about why I did an album based on the anime film, Akira, and a bit about the end of the world. It’s more funny than that, though (link).

Finally, my friend and associate, Mikal kHill, released a new single to fund-raise for replacing his busted computer and other general expenses. This is mildly important, as he’s the guy I’m doing The Slytherin Mixtape with, and he makes the beats and produces it, which necessitates a computer. But you can also read what friend Jesse Dangerously wrote about Mikal and this song on his tumblr (link). Anyway, the single is below, and you can donate what you want:
