Get Oasis' "Dig Out Your Soul" music before album release date
9 September 2008
The new album doesn’t hit the shelves until 6th October, but Oasis
fans across the world are set to get an exclusive preview of ‘Dig
Out Your Soul’, in a groundbreaking partnership between Big Brother
Recordings and music magazine NME supported by Arts Council England
and Guitar Hero.
The band have teamed up with NME in a musical first, which will see
the magazine release the sheet music and lyrics to three brand new
album tracks – ‘Bag It Up’, ’The Turning' and ‘(Get Off Your)
High Horse Lady’ in an exclusive companion disc give-away.
Packaged as an official collectable item featuring a unique Big
Brother Recordings catalogue number, the Oasis ‘NME Dig Out Your
Soul Songbook’ will be free with NME’s September 17th issue and
will also include a CD-Rom packed full of exclusive content and
artwork.
The songbook will invite fans to play the as-yet unheard tracks
themselves by filming their efforts and uploading them to a
dedicated microsite housed at http://www.oasisinet.com/digoutyoursoulsongs
This radical move adds a new dimension to the ‘free music’
debate and encourages all you die hard fans out there to pick up
your instruments!
Noel Gallagher of Oasis said, “The gift of music is very special...
and anything that can bring music into a kid’s life is an incredible
thing.”
You, the fans, are encouraged to interpret the new tracks in your own
personal style on whichever instruments you please and Big Brother
Recordings have put together a very special prize for the best entry.
A lucky winner will be personally chosen by the band and will win a
unique VIP experience to the Oasis gig of their choice anywhere in
the world, including travel and accommodation.
Conor McNicholas, NME Editor said: “We are ecstatic that NME has
been able to work with Oasis to give our readers the very first taste
of ‘Dig Out Your Soul’. The songbook really does mark a world first
in including fans in the excitement of a new album release. With Arts
Council England on board helping kids pick up instruments, this
covermount could inspire and enable a new generation of Gallaghers
right across the country.”
The Oasis 'NME Dig Out Your Soul Songbook' is backed by the Arts
Council England’s Take it away scheme which has given out ￡6m worth
of interest free loans to budding musicians over the last 12 months.
Mary-Alice Stack, who manages Take it Away at Arts Council England,
said:
“Take it away is about helping people to get started learning and
playing musical instruments of all kinds. We’re delighted to be
involved with this songbook and competition, because we’re sure it
will do just that.
“Along with aspiring Noels and Liams, we hope that the opportunity
to perform these songs might well turn up a would-be Vanessa Mae or
Seth Lakeman for the next generation."
