Good for him

Unfortunately the record deal required that he remove his audio submissions from the Audio Portal (bummer), but you can now own them on CD, available at CCT Records!

Bad for us :(

Wow...

Thats really good, more success with veiwing time from newgrounds, just more reasons why newgrounds is always a great place...

Thats fucking awesome! I love king bastard, I used his song "Fuck you WOO!" In my Madness Tribute movie about a year ago.

Well I guess that the people who already downloaded them must be happy. Too bad I never heard any of his music.

To answer some of your questions, he does "Intelligent Dance Music ", bleep/glitch work, like Aphex Twin, or Squarepusher, or any other IDM artist.

He's been doing music for about six years, and won a ninja tune contest with one of his more ambient pieces.

If you want to know more about the best of each genre in the audio portal, go to the seventh page of the Best NG Audio Artist thread.

Yeah. Let's see Runescape try to tell any success stories because of their website.

Well that is cool that he has that he got such a great opportunity.

mabye this will get some recognition for the audio portal,
would of been better if he didnt have to remove them.
good to see NG artists of all sorts are doing so well.

Wow, that is so great for him! He does deserve it, and I'll buy his Cds as early as I can. I hope he goes big.

Awsome!!!
are there any mods who look at this stuff?

can't you have Kingbastard talk to his label and tell them that he will pay for the rights for NG to use it.

Wow that's pretty sweet. Congrats to him.

They'd probably sell the fact that they have over 100,000 members...or maybe they'd sell their old games.

Anyway,congratz King.I wish I'd listened to your music before :'(

Cool! More and more people are getting published and so on thanks to Newgrounds. =)

Unfortunately the record deal required that he remove his audio submissions from the Audio Portal (bummer).

Damn, I guess alot of people will download his music before it's too late now. =P

First of, congrats to Kingbastard for getting the record deal and all that!!! Ya really deserve it man!!!
Second, good on ya Tom, for making a newstpoic bout this! I`m sure this will encourage other Audio frequenters to keep on making and submitting music to the Audio Portal!

Yeah, it's a very good thing to do to both promote and congratulate Newgrounds members who have done something great! =]

was reading some responses, mainly the ones from the frontpage post, that brought up the fact that lots of people haven't heard my tunes before. Now, unfortunately I can't post the trx from my album, but I can post other stuff. Please understand that because the upload limit on this site is 4Mb, the trk is not as high a sound quality as I would like, however, it's a piece of 8-bit, lo-fi, electro, IDM, so quality is not that important:) This trk by no means represents the music I make as a whole, but I thought it's only fair to put something back onto Newgrounds to say thanks for all the support I've been given.
Hope you like it, it's one for al the old gamers out there:)

Cool, where abouts did you live?

Move back to Leeds, you can sleep on my sofa if you give me a copy of your album :)

No Gorebastard album out soon, no?

Well, at least I have 3 of his songs before the yoinking.

The Day I Lost My Face, King of Bastards, and JeopardyBastard.

Not exactly my favorite on the AP, but not bad. Still cool he got a record deal. Perhaps I'll steal it sometime ;)

I like The Day I Lost My Face, but yeah, the rest kinda suck :P

I remember I downloaded them because one of them had been on the top 5 for the week. Guess I just had bad guess/picking skills that day.

Anyways, got a good song I could give a listen to?...Without paying :P I'm a cheap bastard.

Unless there was a substantial amount of money involved, I would not sell Newgrounds out for a record deal. That's just wrong.
