News & Notes

May 8^th, 2012 – the release date for Electronic Saviors 2: Recurrence – has finally arrived. This six disc set, released via Metropolis Records, collects exclusive tracks from 142 artists all of whom have united in the cause of curing cancer. This set, the sequel to Electronic Saviors: Industrial Music To Cure Cancer, has been shepherded into existence by Pittsburgh, PA music promoter and cancer survivor Jim Semonik.

While the six-disc edition is now widely available (though certain to go quickly regardless), those who missed out on their initial chance to grab the eight-disc Premium Edition will have one final opportunity to do so in the coming weeks. Across the nation there will be various release parties (check under “Events” on the official Electronic Saviors website or the Electronic Saviors Facebook page) for ES2 where one can not only purchase the Premium Edition along with T-shirts, posters and other goodies, but one can see some of the bands included on the compilation performing live.

On a more somber note, while Jim Semonik has been cancer free for over two years, the spectre of his ordeal to beat this disease continues to haunt him in the form of thousands of dollars in medical bills. In addition to supporting cancer research via purchasing Electronic Saviors, it is humbly requested that you make a donation to help pay down Jim Semonik’s medical bills. Any contribution would be greatly appreciated.
