"About this project:

elseproduct was established over 10 years ago and is recently undertaking its biggest project yet. With minimal funding, three unique projects will come to life. With your help, we will be releasing a two disc compilation called "Of Spectres and Saints," as well as the new Esperik Glare album "Disruptions," and new Surface Hoar album. Each album will feature original artwork by artist Jesse Peper.

The music and artwork on "Of Spectres and Saints" will explore personal interpretations of what lies beyond the gates of death. This collection will feature two tracks by each artist involved, including: Black Sun Productions (previous work with Coil), Esperik Glare, Surface Hoar, 3z13, Behavior, Icedagaz (Jesse Peper's musical project), and Adam Stalker (Mort Douce). All music is previously unreleased. This double disc, digipak project will include an extensive full color booklet of the "Shadow Portraits" series by Jesse Peper (www.jessepeper.com). We are hoping for an All Saints Day release date for this project.

Jesse's artwork will also appear on the new Esperik Glare and Surface Hoar releases. These two discs will be released at the beginning of November as well. To listen to previous tracks by each of these artists visit their MySpace music pages.

elseproduct is not looking to make a profit, it is looking to release music that may otherwise be lost. Your donations will go towards the production and packaging of three spectacular releases; the design and printing of full color, beautifully created booklets of artwork for "Of Spectres and Saints;" as well as promotional materials and more, for all three releases. All mastering fees and artwork expenses have already been covered by elseproduct.

After years of releasing several projects we know how to keep costs low and produce high quality items. We guarantee that the end product will be a professional looking, intriguing, collaboration of art and music...a feast for your eyes and ears. We look forward to sharing this endeavor with you and passing along some very limited goodies to show our appreciation! "
