Laydees and gentlemen, we're launching our newest campaign! This time around, we're focusing on the immense talent of Gas Lipstick! Making music, it’s a gas!
Mr. Lipstick's prowess in beating drums spreads across genres without even the slightest difficulty. We are, after all, talking about a guy who can drum his way into women's hearts in HIM, but he also knows that drumming at just the right frequency and power will separate the flesh from the bones. This is a guy who can both love and kill with drums, and we in SongHi.com are just happy that, in our case, it's the former. |
Gas Lipstick Drum Kits - with ready made beats!
We have created five different Gas Lipstick instruments that we hope will prove useful in making drum heavy tracks. For the first time ever we’re launching three of these instruments with ready-made drum beats: loops!
One of these kit’s is for free – this four-sample drum kit is your basic set for all things good and cool, and can be found in our demo room, but those who want unlimited power might want to check out the other four.
As always, these special, all-powerful crystallizations of divine inspiration can be found in the SongHi Store. Check out what The Gas Lipstick Drums, Burning "Gas" Drum Kit, Majestic "Gas" Drums, and "HIM Drummer" Kit can do. Be careful, though – we know one person who tested out all four at once, and the geologists registered it on Richter scale. (Richter_magnitude_scale)
Gas Lipstick signed TW Steel watch!
The winner of the competition wins an awesome "Gas Lipstick"-signatured TW Steel Watch!
How to join the Gas Lipstick competition
Participating in the Gas Lipstick song making competition is easy: make a song wherever you want, using whatever instruments please you, and in any style or genre you want. After all, genres do not limit Mr. Lipstick himself, so why would they limit you?!
When the song is ready, save it, but use the word "GAS" in the name of the song. This is your chance to be creative – making music is fun, i.e. it's a gas, but naming your songs can be difficult.
We're giving you one piece that you have to use, which ought to make the song naming process as entertaining as making the song itself.
And remember, you can make as many songs as you like, be it one, five, or 100. Go crazy, friends!
Competition runtime
 |
The Gas Lipstick song making competition lasts through early spring – starting on Wednesday 9th of March and ending on Tuesday 11th of April 2011. |
