New Blamstrain under a new name.
Posted by michael vermaak | Filed under Music
So the wonderfully talented Juho Hietala AKA Blamstrain is working on some new material but under a new name Lusua. Check out the player below for some dark relaxed and funky elecktro stylings.
Lusua – Past Tense by Blamstrain
While we are here you might as well head on over to his website where you can pay what you want for any of his albums! I trust that this will start to stick as more and more musicians realise that artists Like Juho have worked out the best way to make money from their work. By allowing fans to pay the artist directly for their work I believe that they can have a much more successful musical career in the long term.
