We're hitting 2023 running with a new standalone track from Helix called "For Bill", out exclusively on Bandcamp on February 3rd. All proceeds from the single go to the surviving family of Mari's dear friend Bill, who took his life this past November and left behind two young daughters and his wife.<br><br>Here's what Mari had to say: <em>"Bill was the first person in my life to truly believe in me and my skill as a musician, he was one of my first bandmates. We played together side by side on stage when only church basements would book us because we were only 15. He was an excellent bassist, electric to watch, even as a kid. However, Bill held a lot of sadness and he did this behind a big bright laugh and smiling bright blue eyes. He didn't want to talk about those types of things ever but he truly was a kid with the world on his shoulders. </em></p>
<p><em>We lost touch as we grew older and each went our separate ways. However, last October 2022, out of the blue Bill surprised me and came to see me perform. I cried when I saw him. Here was my past, here was 15, here was that spark that started it all. I hugged him over and over and told him how much it meant to me that he could have come to see. I told him all of the wonderful journeys music has taken me on, how grateful I was for his belief in me all those years ago. That I even met my handsome, talented, amazing husband due to the fact that I never gave up on my dreams. He smiled so big, that smile I always knew and loved and told me how proud he was of me. That meant everything to me to hear that. I walked away from that evening at a loss for words of how lucky I was to see my old friend again. </em></p>
<p><em>A month later, I read the crushing news that Bill had died and it felt like the wind was knocked out of me. Bill had taken his own life. You know I ran our conversations over and over in my mind. I should have known, I should have reached out more. So many questions you are left with after that. It's such a dark, confusing place to be in and will always be."</em><br><br>The single will come out exclusively on Bandcamp on Friday, February 3rd. The track will cost $1, but supporters are welcome to pay more, if they wish. All proceeds go to Bill’s wife and daughters.

Stay tuned for more newsand have a happy and healthy 2023!<br><br><u><strong>Assemblage 23 and Helix to Play Resistanz Festival</strong></u><br>I'm happy to report that both Assemblage 23 and Helix will be a part of the 2023 edition of the <a contents="Resistanz Festival" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://www.facebook.com/resistanzfestival/" target="_blank">Resistanz Festival</a> in Sheffield, UK on April 7th, 8th, and 9th. This will be Helix's very first European date, so don't miss it!<br><br><u><strong>Free Patches for Arturia SQ80V from Assemblage 23</strong></u><br>A couple of months back, I posted on Facebook that I had found a 34+ year old diskette that contained a bunch of synth sounds I made for the Ensoniq SQ-80 synth, the second synth I ever owned. Since Arturia had recently released a VST emulation of that synth that could load sys-ex data from the original, the first thing I did was import all those banks and convert them for use in Arturia SQ80V. </p>
<p>So, in the spirit of giving, I went through and selected the best of the sounds I had made across various banks, and I'm sharing them with you. I decided to include the 40 best sounds I made, since this was the size of a bank on the SQ-80. The sounds are as 16/17 year old me made them in 1988, warts and all. The only alterations I've made is to add basic effects like reverb, since the original synth lacked built-in effects. </p>
<p>Now, I was obviously just a kid when I made these sounds, so manage your expectations, but hopefully you'll find something cool and useful here to inspire your own music. Happy Holidays to you all! Onward to 2023! </p>

Here is a statement from the organizers: </p>
<p><em>"It is with great sadness and disappointment that our Goth on the Mountain event has been canceled. We have worked tirelessly to make this event a success, but we, unfortunately, did not receive the same effort from the park. We had an agreement with the park that was negotiated months ago but they could not comply with the terms of the agreement. We tried extremely hard to modify the agreement with the park to keep the event alive but they could not meet our terms such that it would have been too much of a detriment to Inland Empire Goth and to our members. In the last few hours, we had to make the difficult decision to cancel the event so that we can mitigate our losses. We will be reviewing our options for recovering losses from the park and thank you all for your understanding. </em></p>
<p><em>We thank you immensely for your patience and understanding at this time. We know you have questions. Please give us time to provide you with accurate information and answers. We know you deserve it and it is our utmost desire to provide you with what you deserve. As soon as we have information we will share it. Remember, you are our main priority at this time and our goal is to honor and respect this subculture we love so very much. We will be working on planning other events for you in the future. </em></p>
<p><em>On behalf of the Goth on the Mountain staff, entertainment, and volunteers we are very grateful for all the support and excitement our community showed for us and this event. It empowers us to want to continue to strive to bring this community what it deserves. We are dedicated to providing high-quality events to the community we love so much, to a community that deserves a safe space and a supportive atmosphere. The Gothic subculture has endured for decades and we will continue to prevail.

What an epic journey this has been. I thank those of you who ordered it again for your patience. My main takeaway from this was: it's a good time to own a vinyl pressing plant. <br><br>I will begin shipping immediately. Please note that I need to pack and bulk ship vinyls for the European orders to my shipping partner in Germany, so you folks will have to wait a little longer, but last time we shipped vinyls over there, it didn't take terribly long. But, in ALL cases, please give me time to fulfill these last orders. There's hundreds of orders and just one me, so bear with me. I will post updates on my progress.<br><br><u><strong>Assemblage 23 Remixes Stabbing Westward</strong></u><br>Out now is the <a contents='"Ghost" single' data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="https://stabbingwestward.bandcamp.com/album/ghost">"Ghost" single</a> from industrial rockers Stabbing Westward.

I am so sorry for how long you all have had to wait, but this is obviously completely out of my control. The demand for vinyl has meant all pressing plants are running on about a 6 month delay in delivering product, and one can imagine that the supply chain and shipping issues caused by the pandemic have only made that worse. At this stage, all I can do is keep you all as up to date on the situation as I can, and make sure everything gets shipped out as quickly as possible once I get everything in my hands. Sorry again, folks. I know it sucks.</p>
<p><u><strong>Nerve Filter's "Linear" Coming Down of Digital Services</strong></u><br>Based on the fact that it cost more to keep the album online than it was generating in revenue anymore, I've made the difficult decision to remove "Linear", the 2006 album I did as my side-project Nerve Filter, from digital and streaming services.

As I mentioned, the supply chain problems that have been effecting most retailers during the pandemic was making it difficult for our shirt printer to find blank shirts to print on. I am happy to say that they have now found some, and my shipping partner in Germany says they're expected to arrive late next week. Thanks everyone for your patience and understanding.

As such, the company printing our shirts in Germany has so far been unable to find blank shirt stock. This is a temporary problem, but one that has made it difficult for us to predict when the European shirts could ship. And you guys have already waited long enough. </p>
<p>One of two things will happen at this point: </p>
<p>A.) If the shirts can be located and printed in the next two weeks, we will go with the original plan of having them printed in Germany. </p>
<p>Or </p>
<p>B.) I will bring over shirts I have on hand to give to my German shipping partner to get the orders out and taken care of when I come to Germany for a pair of shows at the end of the month. </p>
<p>I know this is annoying, but it’s also out of our hands. I originally placed the order for the shirts back in July with no idea how difficult it would be for the printers to find shirts to print on. So, I've gone ahead and sent out free download codes for the Failure 20th Anniversary Edition to anyone whose order is being delayed because of this situation. If your order also includes vinyl, you should have already received a download code since those orders will also be delayed. </p>

<p>And just anticipating the question in advance, no this isn't part of a tour, these are one-off shows. Hope to see you there!</p>Assemblage 23tag:www.assemblage23.com,2005:Post/65899952021-03-31T07:22:17-07:002021-03-31T07:24:22-07:003/31/21<p><u><strong>Hoodies Update</strong></u><br>Just a note to say that we have sold out of the zip-up hoodies in our German office. Fans from the EU and Russia can still order hoodies through the store as usual, but international shipping rates will apply. Thanks to everyone who has picked one up so far.

I am happy to announce that this fall, I will be releasing a special 2-CD 20th Anniversary Edition of that album. The first disc will consist of the original album given a fresh mix from the ground up by yours truly and the second disc will feature remixes of "Faiilure" tracks by other artists. That's all I'm going to share at the moment, but stay tuned...<br><br><u><strong>Learn Production, Songwriting and More with A23</strong></u><br>Over the past few months, I've been holding one-on-one Zoom classes with folks who want to learn more about music production and mixing, songwriting, lyric writing, synth programming and more. These have been a lot of fun and it's been really gratifying helping people hone their craft and improve their music. I now have some additional slots available to anyone interested in this. <a contents="Drop me an email" data-link-label="" data-link-type="email" href="mailto:tomshear909@gmail.com">Drop me an email</a> for more info if you're interested!</p>Assemblage 23tag:www.assemblage23.com,2005:Post/65806682021-03-21T08:48:55-07:002021-03-21T08:48:55-07:003/21/21<p><strong>New Hoodies Now Shipping!</strong><br>I'm happy to announce that all the pre-orders for the new Assemblage 23 zip-up hoodies have shipped.

I plan to keep pre-orders open for 2 weeks before placing the order with the printers so I can make sure to accommodate people's desired sizes. Once the order is placed with the printers, I will announce the actual ship date. </p>
<p>Once again, any orders placed from Europe or Russia will ship from Germany to save on international shipping costs. I apologize for the high shipping costs to Canada and Mexico, but this is the actual cost to send a package of this size to those locations. </p>
<p>I also apologize that 2XL is the largest size on offer for the time being. The pandemic has made sourcing special sizes extremely difficult.</p>

I also wanted to thank you all for the amazing support you showed for the new album in 2020. It was a weird time to release an album for sure and not being able to tour in support of it was a strange feeling. However, I am looking forward to 2021 and a return to some semblance of normalcy finally coming back. Rest assured that once it becomes safe to do so, we look forward to getting out there and playing the new material for you. Lots more exciting things coming later this year as well!<br><br><u><strong>Work Begins on New Helix Release</strong></u><br>Mari and I have been hard at work on a new Helix release we hope to put out in the first part of the new year.

I hope that having some new music to listen to this year helped make your 2020 a little bit more bearable. I'm looking forward to seeing what 2021 holds. It is my hope that after this involuntary hiatus that shows can come back and we can get back out there to play some of this new material for you! Here's hoping that no matter what holiday you celebrate this time of year, that it's full of love, laughter, and good music.</p>Assemblage 23
