ANNOUNCING THE RAFTER SWEATY MAGIC VIDEO CONTEST!
Rafter's new EP, which is sweaty, magical, and ergo very appropriately
titled Sweaty Magic, is available for order right now. It's the
perfect booty-shaking disc for college students returning to dorm
halls, or 75 year old veteran dancers wanting to shake up the weekly
shuffleboard-a-thon.
But unfortunately, as visceral as this little EP is, compact discs are
limited in that they convey only sound, not visuals. Enter: You. And
YouTube. And cash. Lots of cash.
Asthmatic Kitty and our friends Microcinema invite you to create a
music video for one of three Rafter songs. Below are three links.
Download the mp3s, pick your favorite song and make a music video.
Upload your music video to YouTube and add it to the Rafter Sweaty
Magic Group (http://www.youtube.com/group/sweatymagic). A specially
selected panel of celebrity judges, including Dan Deacon, Sasha
Barrese, Christine Starkman, The Liars, Yo Gabba Gabba, Leslie Hall,
and Adrian Grenier, will judge the videos.
The contest begins August 27th and will run until 11:59 PM EST
November 15th, 2008. We'll announce winners at
http://asthmatickitty.com on December 1st, 2008.
