Lucy the Chimp
The “Lucy the Chimp” story was playing on RadioLab the other day and reminded us about the t-shirts available on chopshop.

Northeastern, Color Fields & Wagon Wheels, and DRM-Free-dom
First, a ‘thank you’ to all those that have purchased Impactist music this month so far. As announced earlier, half of all reported sales in September will be going to the Oregon Humane Society to help in all the services they provide. Again, thank you!
DRM-Free Direct From Impactist –
In certain countries around the world, iTunes and Amazon just doesn’t work all that well or are not options to purchase and download our music. In an effort to take away as many barriers as possible, we’ve now made available DRM-Free high bit rate 320k MP3’s directly from our website. Just click the button and your purchase will be made via PayPal. Once purchased, a secure download link will be emailed to you. Super simple.
Here’s a direct link to the newly formatted music page with links to all albums and purchase options.
Album Re-Releases –
While we were at it, we have also released previous albums for direct purchase as well. This includes Color Fields & Wagon Wheels and Northeastern. Again, these are DRM-Free and 320k MP3 format.
Below is the album art for the re-releases:




And as always, if you have any questions feel free to email us directly at info@impactist.com.
Happy Listening!

I Can See Clearly Now…
We’ve re-encoded, resized, and replaced the projects we have hosted on Vimeo.com, making them available in HD.
Some of our work contains textural elements with fine detail and film stocks with visual grain. When aggressive compression algorithms are applied to content that possess these details, the results can be less than optimal with shifted color palettes and blocky artifacts.
Of course, the original uncompressed masters are pristine and these hosted files remain encoded for fast online playback, but they are vastly superior in visual quality compared to the files they are replacing.
Happy viewing!
