Cover CD1 created by Josie Anderton“Relay for Life” to Benefit from Second Life CD Collaboration as part of Second Life’s 7th Birthday Celebration
Popular British singer, Sid Slade, will be releasing His First CD’s in Second Life on Wednesday the 23rd of June, at Romantica Yacht Club (RYC), timed to coincide with Second Life’s 7th Birthday Celebration. Sid, who raised around 300,000 lindens through the sale of his real life paintings, in aid of the “Relay for Life” Cancer Charity, has subsequently managed to raise around 225,000 additional lindens, for RFL, through his “surreal musical journey”.
Surreal is an apt description. Sid had never sung a song in his life until June 2009, when a visiting nephew left a microphone at his house. Sid decided to fit it to his PC and recorded a couple of songs for fun. He had a few friends take a listen and the feedback was very positive, many even suggesting that he should pursue the hidden talent. He decided to take some real life lessons from a voice coach to learn how to breathe properly and gain more control over his voice. Improvement came quickly, he began to build up a repertoire and began live streaming into Second Life with the intention that any fees and tips would again be donated to RFL.
Sid has become well known in Second Life with a loyal fan club and a regular gig schedule at top live music venues such as RYC. So much so in fact that he approached the voice coach, who also does recording sessions, and set to recording enough songs for an album. Pat Wunderland of Wunderland Records , also a promoter of live music in secondlife and who produces CDs’ to sell in world, was very impressed with the recordings, a mixture of genres with something to please most peoples tastes. Pat was happy to help and guitarist Andrex Melnik and the fabulous UKD Project also Joined the party. Sid Rocks your Soul 1 has 4 of Sid’s tracks and a guest track from Andrex Melnik . Sid Rocks your Soul 2 also has 4 of Sid’s tracks and a guest track from the UKD Project.
Cover CD2 created by Life CharronThe cds are now ready and it is Sid’s hope that they make lots more lindens for RFL. He will be holding a launch party at the Romantica Yacht Club (RYC) owned and run by APinkSwan Beauchamp and Very Keynes at 1pm sl time on Wednesday 23 June. The launch will be simulcast to the Pinks Prop's pals parcel in the SL7B sim . Sid will be singing all songs from the Cd's live during the show and will be joined on stage by the guest artists.
The CD’s Represent a collaboration of 4 artist and 8 people on 3 continents, united by Second Life, each with a desire to use creative talents to benefit global charities.
Romantica Yacht Club, affectionately known as RYC, originated in 2006 from the creative mind of Very Keynes. In 2007, the Pink's Props team aided RYC in the development of it on its sim, Beauchamp. Upon moving completely on to its own estate, Pink's Props moved RYC along with it to Jeffrey. It is at that time that APinkSwan Beauchamp decided to collaborate with Very Keynes on the continuation of this wonderful venue. APinkSwan put up the land and artist fees, while Very went to work on the development of the venue. Up and running, the two worked together, despite the 10 hour time difference, Very being in South Africa and Pink on the East coast of America, to bring in the best International artists in SL, as well as the newest artists. RYC has always been a huge advocate of originals and the promotion of free music to the SL population.
RYC is still going strong today and we remain true to our mission statement.
Pink's Props
A little history....Pink's Props was established in November of 2006 by APinkSwan Beauchamp. A small cabin retreat on the mainland was just the beginning. Pink expanded into private island land rentals in January of 2007. With the help of Highlander Viking, Pink's Props emerged as a one-of-a- kind property management company. Pink and High expanded, once again, into private island land sales and extensive property mangagement, offering unique land, services, and support. Danielluh Ashton and Daten Thielt came on board and added their impressive talents to the team. Not only has this team collaborated on property management, but they have created non-profit sims/areas for the public to enjoy! Today, working as a team, Pink, Dani, Daten, and HighLand Braveheart (formerly Highlander Viking) look after the Pink's Props Estates, those who reside there, and the wonderful areas for all to explore. Currently working on new projects, Pink's Props continues to grow and prosper. Stay tuned....
