Dream of Omnimaga

On June 10th 2002, I started making electronic dance music. Eventually, I released various albums, two of which were in cassette format and many others in digital download format. However, over the last 15 years, many people from Omnimaga, Cemetech, CodeWalrus, other websites and social media have requested physical CD copies of my 32-bits eurodance, trance, happy hardcore, UK hardcore and power metal work.

Tonight, the wait is over:



Thanks to Kunaki's on-demand, direct-to-customer CD printing service, you can now purchase all the full-lenght albums that I have released from January 2007 to present, many of which includes songs from as early as 2002. Here are the ten albums that are now available in physical format:
Epic Journey through the Galaxy (2007) EDM
Journey through the Moon Dark Side (2007) EDM
Enter the Dream World (2007) EDM
Angel in the Stars (2007) EDM
It's the End of Time (2008) EDM
Destiny Knight (2009) EDM & VGM
Tales of the Knight of the Moon (2011) Power metal
Ancient Kingdom of Omnimaga Special Edition (2014) Power Metal
In UK Hardcore and Dance we Trust (2017) EDM
Illegal Music Chemistry (2017) Experimental & VGM

Of course, as always, my entire discography, including two compilations and one DJ mix, are available for purchase in digital format at http://djomnimaga.bandcamp.com for much cheaper, but for those who have been waiting for physical collectibles for so long, head to http://kunaki.com/mSales.asp?PublisherId=147037&pp=1 to grab them. Note, however, that shipping might take up to 5 weeks in USA and 7 worldwide, and that Kunaki doesn't accept returns, due to being essentially an automated service.

Thanks to @Juju for recommending this CD fullfilment service to me and to @p2 for convincing me very hard to put my music on CD earlier this year. Also thanks to everyone that supported my music in the last 15 years.

Lol I doubt it, but I bet a few people will want some of them. As long as each album sells 1 copy every 180 days so that I don't have to order them myself every 180 day :P (Kunaki automatically deletes albums that had no sales for 180 days)

Zero order. Nothing at all so far. The weird thing though is that my 4 oldest albums are marked as being last ordered yesterday, before they went for public sale. I'm starting to wonder if Kunaki didn't ship new copies to me in response to the recent shipping issues I had.

Hey, congratulations DJ! The first CD releases of one's own music is always a great thing. I'll certainly pick up an album or two on my next payday ;)
I listened to Techno just once, and my entire life fell to pieces instantly.

Dream of Omnimaga

Thanks a lot. This is something I always dreamed of in the last decade, but I did not know any reliable CD making service that ships directly to customers as they order until Juju told me about Kunaki (and the others were too expensive). I also did not have the equipment at home to do proper discs that were not just CD-R's. I wanted to charge as low as I could for each album, which made Kunaki, despite being very bare-bones, very convenient. It just felt good to hold CDs of my music that just looks like a CD that you buy at a store (the only difference being the lack of an UPC bar code but c that lol)

Eh, gotta need those if you want to sell your CDs in store. Heard Kunaki can issue them automatically if you want, won't be hard.

But yeah, feels pretty cool to have your music in physical format in my hands.

Yeah true. That said, I don't think my CD's will be available in stores anytime soon. It will take 1 year before I reach 1000 subscribers on Youtube. (Iwhich is required for Sunrise Records). Not to mention I think they will only sell my stuff near where I live, not nationwide, since they're looking into promoting local artists, not national ones)

urgh, might be a problem since many of us dont even use youtube... (still haven't accepted the terms and conditions from the popup that came a few months ago, only use playit.pk so I dont have to)
Also I dont think selling ur CDs in a store would be such a good idea since most of the guys loving ur music arent from canada ;)

Yeah true. I drfinitively wonder if Sunrise approach will get more people into independent music, though.

Cool. I'm not that found of physical copies because digital versions are enough for me, but it reminded me how cool your music was. I've put the whole discography in my bandcamp basket, I'll probably order it soon so I'll be able to listen to it in my car! At the moment I'm listening to "Theola the One", it's so epic!  >:D

To be honest I'm the same way now, especially since I can keep my entire collection of music copied over to my computer in one space. I still like buying physical copies of my favorite metal bands as collectibles, though.

And yeah you can get the digital collection for much cheaper. I think CD's are $8.30 with shipping if you buy one at once, which means $1 to Kunaki, $4.30 to shipping and $3 to me. The entire digital collection can be obtained for even less :P

The only thing I hate about digital is if the service deletes your account or files after a long period of inactivity like iTunes did with my purchases. Same if the service shuts down permanently. Good thing I had backups of Bass Launch's and Instant Remedy's music.
