It is testament to the strength of an independent artist, when the preview of their new album is debuted on Billboard.com. In terms of numbers (and you can read this in depth with an interview over on Billboard), since the release of his first (full) free album 8-Bit Heart, Simon Curtis has had over 400,000 YouTube views, has aggregated a “Robot Army” of 20,000+ Twitter followers and more than a million plays on last.fm – not forgetting a good handful of dedicated fan sites.
Check out the megamix preview to four of the new tracks from the internet pop sensation’s new album, RΔ, “Don’t Dance,” “Enemy,” “Pit Of Vipers” and “Laser Guns Up”.
As a bonus, Simon, along with female compatriots Ro Danishei (whose debut album, End of the Rainbow, featured a track with Simon) and Andrea Lewis will be hitting London on May 14 for an exclusive gig for EQ Live, whereby fans donate £15 in advance to support the acts and fly them over to perform. The show is based exclusively on fan demand, so if you’re in the UK and a fan, make sure you donate on PayPal and head over to Facebook for more details.
