This is significant, not just because it&#8217;s my birthday, but because this is the first album I&#8217;m releasing without video game remixes or exclusive chiptunes. It&#8217;s a collection of six collaborations with other musicians I&#8217;ve encountered on my adventures as Dj CUTMAN, including <a href=\"http:\/\/www.benbriggs.net\" target=\"_blank\">Ben Briggs<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.smiletron.org\" target=\"_blank\">Smiletron<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/villeccomedia.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Kevin Villecco<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.djcutman.com\" target=\"_blank\">Dj CUTMAN<\/a> project started as a video game beatmaking project with live DJ performances. It quickly grew to incorporate my love for original chiptune music. Since then I&#8217;ve had the honor of performing as Dj CUTMAN as prestigious events such as <a href=\"http:\/\/east.paxsite.com\" target=\"_blank\">Penny Arcade Expo<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.magfest.org\" target=\"_blank\">MAGfest<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/nerdapalooza.org\" target=\"_blank\">Nerdapalooza<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/djcutman.bandcamp.com\/album\/lost-beats-found-friends\" target=\"_blank\">Lost Beats &amp; Found Friends<\/a> signifies an evolution of the project, so I am dropping the &#8220;Dj&#8221; from the name of this album and presenting it simply as &#8220;Cutman&#8221;. There are no video game remixes on the album, but if you listen close you&#8217;re sure to hear my influences. The tracks are varied in style and tempo, spanning hiphop to house, with my trademark crisp production style and vintage drum samples.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/djcutman.bandcamp.com\/album\/lost-beats-found-friends\" target=\"_blank\">Lost Beats &amp; Found Friends<\/a> is currently being offered on <a href=\"http:\/\/music.DjCUTMAN.com\" target=\"_blank\">music.DjCUTMAN.com<\/a> with no minimum price to download.
