'EXUL' Private Listening Sessions (next week!) (Patreon)

****FEB 20 UPDATE: *****Just confirming that invitations have been sent out to all members who qualify to attend. Please check your email inboxes and if you haven't received an invite and think that you qualify please send us a message so we can double check. Thanks! - Tim 

As much as it's really important for us to do things to continue to get new members to join us here on Patreon, we also want to do some special things for those fans that have been supporting us for a long time now. With that in mind, in addition to the Exul listening parties we'll be doing a few days before the album comes out (that will be accessible to all members -details coming soon), we have decided to organise some special listening sessions next week to give our biggest supporters the chance to hear the album before anyone else. These are going to be invite only events due to the very sensitive conditions required to share an album like this almost a month before the release date.

To receive an invite you will need to be either:

1. A current member of The Revered ($75USD) or Grand Master ($250USD) tier  OR

2. Have contributed over $1000USD+ lifetime as a member of the Ne Obluminati on Patreon.

As of today there are 70 different members who fit that criteria. Each of you will be getting a personal invite to attend one of these special sessions where you will get the opportunity to hear the entire album in full!

HOW IT WILL WORK:

- We will begin sending out invites on Monday, Feb 20 and aim to have all invites sent out by Wednesday, Feb 22 at the latest.

- Your invitation will ask you to nominate a session you'd like to attend OR if you can't attend one of the times listed, to nominate your availability in case we can add any additional listening sessions.

- You will then receive a private link solely to the session you have nominated to attend. You are not allowed to share this attendance link with anyone else.

- We will also supply you (Along with the Zoom link) a PDF with audio instructions for your Zoom set up to ensure you are able to listen to the album in the premium quality mix it was designed for. This way you can plan ahead.

- Each session will give you a chance to hear the entire album from start to finish as well as a short reflection period afterwards hosting by NeO member/s.

- Your invite allows you access to one session only.

Some quick rules:

1. Current members that don't meet the above criteria: If you wish to upgrade your membership so you meet the above criteria- this is allowed. If you do this, please message us here on Patreon so that we make sure to send out your personal invite. Otherwise, you'll still get a chance to hear the album early before it's officially out, but on the week it is coming out.

2. Non-current members: Can not attend even if they sign up tomorrow at Grand Master level. We will be doing other exciting things to entice new members to sign up, but these listening sessions are special events for existing members designed to reward those already part of The Ne Obluminati.

3. No extra attendees: Nobody is allowed to attend with you. If you receive an invite it is for you only and nobody else can sit in on the session along with you unless they are also on the invite list.

4. No phones allowed- your phone must be placed in airplane mode or in a different room for the duration of the session.

DISCLAIMER:

Bands never usually do this... especially online. And of course the reason for that is the risk of the album potentially leaking. But of course, we often do things different to most bands!

We won't be advertising these private sessions except on Patreon, as if we put this on social media there would very likely be someone that would sign up for $75 just so they can leak the album. Part of the reason we've set the criteria to attend quite high is the people who qualify are either supporting us already at a high level right now, or have been supporting us a really long time and have earned our trust.

With this in mind there will be strict rules, and ANY recording of ANY kind (video or audio) is strictly prohibited and will result in automatic lifetime ban.

But honestly, this is not something we are worried about, because many of the people receiving these invites we have known for years and hung out at shows together as well. We know you want what is best for NeO just like we do after all.

Below are the different session times! More may be added.

Thanks so much for your support! We can't wait to share this album with a bunch of you next week and the rest of you later in March!
