Essenger Signs Exclusive Multi-Album Deal With FiXT Neon

March 12, 2021

“I’m very excited to solidify a home for Essenger.

FiXT/FiXT Neon has an amazing staff and I couldn’t ask for anything more. James Rhodes (VP of FiXT) and I have very similar mindsets when it comes to the music industry and pushing an artist and their brand. I’m excited to have a long-term home for Essenger.”
– Nicholas Mishko, 10 & 8 Management

Rising EDM-Synthwave Producer/Musician Essenger has signed an exclusive multi-album deal with retro synth label FiXT Neon. Over a year ago, Essenger sat at 100K. monthly listeners on Spotify before signing a non-exclusive deal with FiXT Neon, and now currently boasts over 300k monthly listeners.

Essenger has worked with some big names in the industry including labels Monstercat and Seeking Blue, and artists Scandroid, PYLOT, Young Medicine, Lexi Norton, Fury Weekend, Young Medicine, and Tokyo Rose. He’s also premiered on The Dancing Astronaut, and has been featured on various outlets including but not limited to YourEdm, Come Here Floyd, and Vanyaland, and appears on the popular freestyle dance VR game Synth Riders.

“As someone with a rational fear of record labels, I speak from experience when I say FiXT Neon is everything a label should be, valuing creativity, innovation, and the vision of their artists before all else. James and the rest of the staff here are incredibly hardworking and versatile and have been been a privilege to work with. I’m excited about my future as an artist working with the FiXT team, and cannot thank Klayton, James, and the team enough for their continued support for my projects.”
– Essenger

“You only need to listen to Essenger’s “After Dark” album once to be hooked. I was honored to be part of it (Empire of Steel) and am looking forward to hearing a lot more music from him. We’ll make sure all of it reaches your ears :)”

I’ve always wanted to expand and develop as an artist whilst also having support, and I feel FiXT offers that.”

FiXT Partners With Cyberspline In New BoomBox VR Game

March 8, 2021

Artist News, Artist Press

Fixt

FiXT is proud to announce a partnership with Cyberspline Games, providing a soundtrack of premium in-game songs to the exciting new VR rhythm game BoomBox, along with 100 pre-cleared tracks for community mapping. This is a pioneering relationship between music rights and the gaming studio, allowing gamers to not fear DMCAs and safely and officially enjoy community mapping and competitions.

BoomBox is a rhythmically enhanced VR music experience, available now in early access on Steam, and coming soon to the Oculus and PSVR stores. BoomBox stands alongside established titles like Beat Saber and Synth Riders while contributing its own twists to the genre, providing an evolving game environment built around pounding drums while dodging obstacles. From doubling as a fitness routine or dance-fest to stepping up to challenge the leaderboards, BoomBox is just as focused on casual VR music-rhythm-game fans as it is for level mappers looking to create something to share with the community.

The game currently features 11 official in-game FiXT songs, including tracks from Celldweller, Scandroid, The Algorithm, Essenger, 3FORCE, and others, with more to be added, along with 100 community level tracks available for mappers to take, create and share with other users, without the fear of DMCAs or content-strikes.

Known for empowering the gaming community with Twitch-safe music, YouTube-friendly policies, and a history of building unique music partnerships with game developers through a catalog of 3,000+ tracks across electronic-rock, metal, EDM, synthwave, and synth pop genres, FiXT sees the combination of including in-game songs + officially licensed community level tracks for BoomBox as an evolutionary step to bring together music and gaming fans.

“We were lost while looking for the right music partner: integrating the music into the game is very hard due to DMCAs and the limited experience of music companies working around the game needs. FiXT believed in us, understood, and supported us very professionally, they were there to hold our hand which resulted in such a fantastic music selection for the main gameplay. This is a pioneer collaboration between a game studio and music studio which allows our gamers to create, share and stream officially their own maps based on 100 pre-cleared songs from FiXT. The FiXT style is unique and fits our game very well and we are excited to share their music with BoomBox players.”
– Ekaterina Nosova – CEO, Cyberspline Games

“This partnership perfectly captures the vision of combining music and gaming into an experiential product. We’re proud to working with creative visionaries like Cyberspline and bring a catalog of music available to their customers and community!”
– James Rhodes – Vice President & Co-Founder, FiXT
