2011 Christmas Giveaway - for fans only!!!Alohaaa Dudes!I'm writing to you this morning to let you know whats going on right now - We're giving away free stuff for the holidays! For the last few months, I and 'Chelle (the wonderful wonderful person who runs my main fan account on twitter @PeraltaNation have been toying with an idea of a fans-only contest, and we finally decided to do it! This isn't the typical contest you usually see, where random people kiss up to win free stuff just because its free stuff. This is more like, a way to reward our real fans - those who have already been showing support, those who continue to show support, and those who are just now jumping on the bandwagon. What You Can WinWhat will you win, you ask? Michelle and I have discussed it, and we'll be giving away something of almost everything I have to offer, including: Individual Mp3s, giant mailbox killing globs of Mp3s, some of my hand made t-shirts, autographed copies of my debut acoustic album, autographed copies of my single releases, buttons, stickers, autographed demo CDs, shout outs in my next youtube vlog, and anything else we can think of! Who WinsWho wins, and how do you win? The simple answer is: The most awesome fans will win. The long answer is this: Show us what makes you an awesome fan. Show us how you've contributed. Tell us how you've been enjoying my work, and what it means to you. How can you do that? There are a ton of ways! :

A Story Forever
My Friends!
Well it's that time again - I'm releasing another single! Everybody say it with me - YAYYYYyyy! Phew okay, now that I got that out of my system, let's continue. My new single is a dreamy acoustic song called "A Story Forever" with very light drums, orchestral strings, subtle synth backup vocals, and my trusty acoustic guitar. The song is one very close to my heart. You see, a long long time ago, I came up with the general idea for what the lyrics would represent, and kept it bouncing around in my head for years. It's been in my heart for quite some time. Eventually I finished the first solid draft of what the song would become today, and started performing it live at gigs and to close friends at backyard parties, slowly learning how to perform it properly, in the way I had originally heard it in my head.

My Next Single - Fosner!My Next Single -FosnerPeeps, exciting news - I'm ready to release another single! Next month, on May 8th, 2011, it will be rolling out on iTunes, Rhapsody, Amazon Mp3, CD Baby, my online store, and most other major digital distributors. The song is called Fosner and I wrote it awhile back but had been keeping it on the back burner for quite some time. I'll admit right now, it's a silly, silly song. In it I try to express the social frustration of an over stressed youth, set to the backdrop of grunge-ish rock-ish music. You know how sometimes you sit down and realize things in your life haven't been going quite as well as you've wanted, but then you come up with a better plan, which renews and motivates you? This is not one of those songs haha. Imagine you have so much already on your plate, or you're already having so much trouble coping with the stress in your life, that the added pressure of coming up with a new/better plan would be too much to bear... ...so instead of coming up with that new plan, you just go off the deep end and start maniacally yelling to yourself "I'm cool!! I'm a winner!! I'm going to win the lottery and become the mayor!!! hahahahahahaha!!!!" I know many of us haven't actually done that, but I bet most of you would be willing to admit the thought has crossed your mind. I know it's crossed my mind more than once, especially when drunk. To help give you a better idea, here's my description straight from CD Baby: [...]

Mike Peralta's "Japan Support via the Red Cross" Mp3 Pack! Hey guys,As most of you are aware by now, Japan recently suffered an 8.9 magnitude earthquake, followed by tsunami waves of up to 33 feet shortly after (Link1, Link2). The island nation sustained massive devastation and is now in extreme need of relief/support efforts. At the moment, the American Red Cross is responding by deploying over 400 doctors, nurses, and support staff, distributing blankets and other supplies to evacuation centers, and more. More details of this relief effort can be found at RedCross.org [...] |

Fan Photo Contest Has Finished!
Hello everyone. I hope you all had a great new year and a wonderful holiday season!
I've been getting a lot of emails asking "Mike for the love of god, when are you announcing the winners of your contest!??!" Well sorry peeps, what can I say.. I'm slightly lazy writing up this blog and choosing winners, and I've been slightly greedy in that the longer I wait the more submissions I get haha. Well anyway, the time has come to cut off the contest and enjoy what's been sent in so far. If you are a winner, I will be contacting you soon! Feel free to message me with your email address just to make sure I have the correct one on file. If you did not win, don't fret - I'll be running another contest soon... and here's a dirty little secret of mine. If you give me lots of shout out's on twitter, post my banners up on your website, participate in my forums, or you are a very supportive fan in general... I have a tendency to say "YES" when you ask me for free stuff! :P [...]

Happy New Year, All !! (And Crazy Search Terms, and My New Single)Happy New Year, All!!!Did you all have a fun new years eve? Did you get lots of toys at Christmas? Did you spend your holidays with loved ones, friends, some fellow drunks, or at least a good video game? In this blog I've got a silly list of the strangest search terms people have used to find my website in 2010, and a quick update regarding my new single, which is to be released worldwide January 3rd, 2011. I want you all to know I hope you had a blast celebrating the end of 2010, and I wish you the best in 2011. Remember (!), its not about keeping all your new years resolutions - its about making so many resolutions that just by sheer volume, you'll end up keeping some of them. I'm shooting for 20 resolutions personally, and if I keep 5, mission accomplished. Don't be a 2-resolution loser! lol Strange IncomingSearch TermsSo a little while ago, I checked some of my webstats for MikePeralta.com, to get a feel for what promotional things I was doing right, which ones wrong, and well, you get the idea. For those of you who don't know what webstats are, they're just statistics for your website, showing a variety of metrics - like how many visitors you had, how many pages they viewed, what they viewed, how long they stayed, how they got to your site, etc. Google analytics has a great free tool for this, and there are a bunch of other ones out there in cyber space.

Fan Photo/Drawing Contest!! and New Single in January!Contest - Win FREESTUFF!!! My friends!How you been!? I've been getting a lot of people asking when I'm finally going to start doing contests again. And then this week, when I did a surprise mp3 giveaway on some of my social networking profiles, I had A LOT of fans mistakenly think they were getting a free physical CD and send me their full address in the hopes of an early Christmas present, teehee. I guess you guys just want to get some more free stuff, so here's your chance! I'm itching for some new fan photos, or some fan art. I'd like for anyone interested to send me what they've got (my email is a couple paragraphs down), and then I'm going to pick some of the best submissions and give you prizes! [...]

Single Released! - "I Want to Be Sad" Peeps!My new single "I Want to Be Sad" has been released, and is now available for purchase on iTunes, Amazon MP3, Napster, CD Baby, Limewire Store, and of course my own official store on this website (if you're reading a syndicated feed, that'd be MikePeralta.com). I think Rhapsody is lagging but they should make it available too sometime soon. Head on over to my new Discography Page to find all the purchase links, or just listen to it. ALSO!!! I've just programmed a brand new section to my site, where you can earn a FREE copy of one of my tracks just for tweeting about me. I call it "Tracks For Tweets", I guess. Anyhow, if you have a twitter account, you can find the page here and grab your free copy while I'm still promoting it! [...] |
