In addition to artist alley, Disko Warp is throwing an official pre-party at Pop Culture in Vancouver. More information, in addition to RVSPing for the event can be found here. There will be dancing, puzzle fighter, and food/soda up for sale from the venue. Should be a good time!

So, if you are coming to Kumoricon, be sure to say hi or streetpass my 3DS.

There will be plenty of stuff available for those interested. Disko Warp will have multiple cds available for purchase including a new Kawaii-Core cd filled with the best tracks from 2009-2011. I will have whatever is on my online store (shirts, key-chains, charms, puzzles, etc) in addition to prints, and a few new charms that are not available online. Artist alley is open all three days for the following hours…

ARTIST ALLEY HOURS

Sunday – 9 AM –3 PM

Artist alley is in room 6B. You can find the full schedule here as well.

I also entered the AMV contest with Space Space Shooter, but I’m not sure if it made it in or not. I’ll post more details about that later on if it does, in fact, get in.

Thanks to anyone that comes by my booth to check out everything we have to offer! I’m looking forward to meeting people and just having a good time.

If you are planning on going, you should come check us out! Disko Warp will also have some shirts, the Disko Warp Best Hits cd, and a brand new anime/cover mix “Anime Love Hardcore” available before its officially released. I had my hand in designing the cd layout for this release. It features a cool character design by Chevi. Some of the albums vocalists will be at the booth as well.

I managed to submit my animation for “UFO Catcher” as an OAV for the AMV contest too. It isn’t running in the competition, but it is going to be shown in the exposition. I believe the contest is on friday, starting at 4p. So if you want to see my work on the big screen, be sure to check, check, check it out!

I’m going to be also selling a brand new “Less Than Three” shirt, which mixes pink/brown-ish inks on a light blue tee. Right now I’m just waiting to get my hands on them. If I get them before the con starts, I’ll have them for sale… if not, they will be available online at a later date. I’m getting both Woman’s fitted and Unisex sizes for this design.

So, if you are headed to Sakura Con, be sure to stop by and say hi! I’ll gladly say hello!

As for the convention itself, it was really good this year. I checked out a few panels, the expo hall, and played some Pop’n Music a bunch!

During friday’s dance, a new Disko Warp Records remix was played as well. It’s an unreleased mix of “Don’t Don’t Go Away” in a very hardcore style. You can catch it in this video at around 6 min. I believe it’ll be out soon. I just didn’t expect it during the dance.

I took a bunch of photos of the SMiLE.dk concert on saturday as well. You can view them on my facebook here…

It was a pleasure to meet Veronica, Hanna, and Dick (one of the producers). I got to go backstage during part of the concert too, which was cool. I also drew up a couple of pictures to personally give to them.

Hopefully next year is even better! I believe its taking place in early April. If I do artist alley again, I’ll be sure to let you all know. Thanks again for a wonderful convention.

I would like to note that I, in conjunction with Quon, drew a couple special pics for SMiLE.dk for this event. Heres a small sample of one of the pics character designs!

I’ll be at my artist alley booth on friday/saturday. I’m not too sure about sunday though. If you decide to come, be sure to check out my booth! I have buttons/shirts and prints!

Also, a quick note, I closd my store for the weekend, it will be back up on monday. This is just so I don’t have to worry about any new orders while I’m gone for the weekend.

To anyone going to the con, hope you all have a safe trip to and from, it should be a fun time!

Its a little documentary that my brother and his girlfriend put together of our escapades at this last years Sakuracon anime convention. Its part of Team BRU, which is a small gaming site I help run.

If you look at the movie closely, you’ll catch me scarfing down a burrito. So, what are you waiting for, check it out! Heh.
