Remix for He Whose Oxe is Gored posted.http://www.uglyheadmusic.com/news/2010/6/18/sets-in-the-east-to-be-featured-in-video-game-remix-for-he-w.htmlJake Alejo2010-06-19T00:59:31ZI recently found out the Uglyhead song "Sets in the East" will be featured in the video game "Greg Hasting's Paintball 2."
The game is due out in September on Xbox 360, PS3 and the Wii.
Sets in the East is available for free download in the downloads section of this very website.
Also I did a remix of the song "Pyramids on the Horizon" for the band He Whose Ox is Gored. The remix is labeled as "Brumal Remix" on their myspace page and is one of the downloadable bonus tracks for their new EP entitled "Op Amps II: Into the ethers." Head over to their page to check it out and get info on how to download.
I definitely have a lot more stuff in the works so stay tuned and have a good weekend!!!
]]>"My feet are falling off" Now available for free on the downloads pagehttp://www.uglyheadmusic.com/news/2010/4/6/my-feet-are-falling-off-now-available-for-free-on-the-downlo.htmlJake Alejo2010-04-06T07:00:30Z"My feet are falling off" is now available for free download on the downloads page. It is an older song that I thought I lost the mixdown for but I found it today while cleaning out my computer. It is not on any album so now it is yours for free.]]>uglyhead mailing listhttp://www.uglyheadmusic.com/news/2010/3/29/uglyhead-mailing-list.htmlJake Alejo2010-03-30T05:39:23ZI came up with an idea that is either really stupid or potentially really awesome. In order to relieve those interested in Uglyhead from the corporate advertising and the constant spam of social networking sites I am starting a mailing list. When you join this mailing list you get a login and password to uglyhead.org so you can participate in the site. You also get free stuff, discounts on merch and potentially exclusive uglyhead related content and items. You can interact with me and other mail listees on a regular basis if you choose as well.
This way I am only sending information to people who want it and am not contributing to the constant myspace spam that bands usually send (I hate that shit so much!!!).
The catch is that I am only one broke-ass musician and I want to make this mailing list really worth participating in so i am going to start it off with a cap of 200 people. Once there are 200 participators I am closing sign up for a while so I can see how difficult or easy it is to maintain the list for that many people. I may keep it at 200. I may not even get 200 interested people. I may open it up for more people later but it will definitely be capped at 200 for at least 6 months. Everyone who signs up must login to uglyhead.org every 60 days or their account will be deleted and they will be removed from the mailing list (which will open up a spot for somebody else).
If you are interested please visit the Mailing list page at uglyhead.org to find out how to sign up.]]>Free Stickershttp://www.uglyheadmusic.com/news/2010/3/24/free-stickers.htmlJake Alejo2010-03-25T03:31:28ZGet free stickers. All you have to do is visit the contact page and send me:

]]>RIP Koldo Chamorrohttp://www.uglyheadmusic.com/news/2009/12/27/rip-koldo-chamorro.htmlJake Alejo2009-12-27T08:56:55ZI am a bit late in finding this out but Spanish photographer Koldo Chamorro died in October. I lived in his flat in Pamplona while I was putting together music for my first album. There was a language barrier but we got along well. He was a very dedicated artist and a generous person. I remember sitting in on some sort of meeting in Madrid with Koldo and a gallery owner from Seattle regarding a gallery showing. The meeting came to an abrubt end when Koldo explained that he was only interested in showing his photos and not interested in selling them. He exposed me to new perspectives on art and was very influential to me in the short time I knew him. As far as I know he never did have a gallery showing in the US. I found a few of his photographs on the internet that I would like to share. My best wishes go out to his family. Koldo, you will be missed.
]]>Merry Christmas!!http://www.uglyheadmusic.com/news/2009/12/24/merry-christmas.htmlJake Alejo2009-12-25T07:06:59Z]]>Inward/Outward album now available on itunes and other newshttp://www.uglyheadmusic.com/news/2009/12/15/inwardoutward-album-now-available-on-itunes-and-other-news.htmlJake Alejo2009-12-15T11:10:48Z
The Inward/Outward combo MP3 album is now conveniently available on itunes for purchase. If you don't have it, this is the easiest way you are ever going to get it. If you do have it or have listened to Inward and Outward please go to itunes and rate it and review it so more people will be tempted to pick it up. Inward and Outward got zero free press so your reviews will go a long way and will help a lot.
Your support would be extremely appreciated!
There are a very limited number of the actual Inward and Outward CD's available through Automation Records. This is your last chance to pick a copy of these limited edition discs for super cheap.
Once they are gone you can only get the itunes version.
Sorry to keep rehashing older material but I assure you a lot of work is being done on new Uglyhead tracks and there will be much activity in 2010. Moving to SF slowed things down for me in '09 but I am finally getting back up to speed. (I hope I am not jinxing myself but...) I have a lot of plans for this upcoming year!
In other news I produced an album for the black metal project Palace of Worms earlier this year and it has gone to press. It should be available to purchase from Flenser Recordings by the end of the month. I will update this site as soon as it is released and talk more about it.
I hope everyone is having a decent winter thus far! It has been cold and rainy in San Francisco but I can't complain because I know Seattle (and many other places) have it way worse this time of year.
