To: <br><br><br>*'XBLOOME', BAND FROM VIENNA PUBLISHES WORLD'S FIRST ALBUM PRODUCED<br>
EXCLUSIVELY WITH FREE SOFTWARE*<br>
<br>
After their debut CD "...Done!" in 2006, and the limited edition release<br>
"Remixed: Happy Rebel" in 2009, the band XBloome from Vienna is proud to<br>
announce their third album.<br>
<br>
"X marks the spot" covers multiple genres: Whether one prefers dancing<br>
to whipping disco-beats, dream away to dark-spherical sounds or simply<br>
chill while enjoying the smooth-jazzy side of XBloome - this<br>
multifarious album is still revealing new details and facets after<br>
repeated playing.<br>
<br>
As maybe the first album ever, "X marks the spot" was produced<br>
exclusively using Free Software (Open Source) and without a professional<br>
studio or graphic designers. With this 'proof of concept' album, XBloome<br>
have debunked several prejudices about feasability, professionality and<br>
quality of free and self-made productions.<br>
<br>
Art needs exchange to live. That's why XBloome have made a point of<br>
sharing their experiences: On their website, they offer other artists<br>
how-tos, tutorials and templates [1].<br>
Consistently, their label of choice to release this album on was<br>
"Edelbrand-Records", whose priority lies in the promotion of<br>
musical-cultural exchange between artists.<br>
<br>
Like all other XBloome albums, "X marks the spot" will not only be<br>
available for sale on CD at their concerts, but as of November 1st 2010<br>
will be obtainable as a free download on <a href="http://www.xbloome.com" target="_blank">www.xbloome.com</a> [2] - in full<br>
length and high-quality, under a Creative-Commons license.<br>
XBloome will bring the new album on tour, starting on November 12th,<br>
playing at the "5 year Edelbrand-Records" event at the "Arena" in Vienna.<br>
<br>
Additional information and background-details about the production are<br>
available on their band website [3].<br>
