Three days ago, IAMX, the well-known alternative project of Chris Corner (formerly in Sneaker Pimps), launched a crowdfunding campaign via pledgemusic.com to raise money for their next album & DVD.
The response from the fans was insane: only ONE HOUR after the campaign was launched, the band hit 100% of the target. Today, on the third day after launch, they are approaching 300% with over 1000 pledgers!
This achievement is "mind-blowing" and proves the incredibly strong bond between the band and its fans. The campaign will be running for 163 more days, plenty of time for fans to pledge if they didn't do so yet.
No less than 40 items are on the menu to choose from, including CD's, DVD's, signed posters, shirts, etc. but the most amazing items are a bass, a guitar, stage outfits, an email exchange with Chris Corner, a dinner party (2000 EUR), a remix by Chris (3000 EUR) and a video by Chris (5000 EUR). A lot of items are now sold-out but the band will add more products in the next weeks.
