ABOUT

FREE TO THE PUBLIC
All of my released content (publications, music and art) that is for sale is open to the public with enough preview snippets to hopefully entice a sale. What won't be public is exclusive content and discounts. If you want a small discount on purchases, you have to join the mailing list. If you want bigger discounts, access to exclusive content, and free stuff, then you have to subscribe.

Why subscribe?

Well, besides getting an in-depth look into my madness and how I create things, you will be helping to support my endeavors so that I may continue to bring you and others content that keeps freedom of speech and expression alive.

But more importantly, you will receive free digital releases from the past, present and future, along with bigger discounts on merch and other fun swag.
 
 

SUB 1 - DISGRUNTLED FOLLOWERS

Just like signing up with any website to join their email list or get a newsletter and getting a perpetual discount on stuff. Below is what you get and what you won't.

• By registering your email and some additional simple info, you will receive email updates and news on the progress of all projects in production.
  
  
• In the email newsletter you will also receive a 10% discount code to use on all purchases of current, past, and future publications, music albums, and art releases as well as all other merch items. This code can be used repeatedly but only on one order at a time. So, use it on just one item or use it on a bunch at once. But use it as many times as you want.
  
  
• This discount cannot be used on other subscriptions.
  
  
• You will not get access to the archives, exclusive content, free stuff or the "Disgruntled Member" badge.

SUB 2 - DISGRUNTLED MEMBERSHIP

This is for those who want to access the exclusive content, archived works, bigger discounts, free stuff and the Disgruntled Member badge. This subscription is restricted to a category of your choice - music, publications or art. With this subscription, you can access all the exclusive content to all the projects under these categories. This will include all past, current and future projects. But again, only for projects under one of the categories you choose - music, publications or art.

Below is what you get and what you won't.

• By registering your email and some additional simple info, you will receive email updates and news on the progress of all projects in production.
  
  
• In the email newsletter you will 2 codes. The first is the Free Download code and is locked to the released items in the category to which you have subscribed. You will not be able to use it in other categories or on merch store items.
  
  You will receive a second code is a 20% discount code to use on all purchases of current, past, and future publications, music albums, and art releases in the categories you are not subscribed to as well as all other merch items. This includes both digital downloads for purchase as well as hard copies when they become available.
  
  The code can be used repeatedly but only on one order at a time. So, use it on just one item or use it on a bunch at once. But use it as many times as you want.

• For the category you are subscribed to, you get to download a free copy of any of the released items in that category. As an example, if you subscribe to publications, you get to download a digital copy of all publications released up to that point and then as time goes on and you remain a subscriber, you get to do the same for future releases. Works the same if you subscribe to the music category or the art categories as well.
  
  If you wish to subscribe to more than one category's exclusive content, then there is a universal subscription option available and is outlined in further detail after this section.
• 
  
  
• A Badge confirming you becoming a fellow "Disgruntled". With badges, there will be three total, one for each category so it will be you supporting D4Disgruntled The Composer, The Artist and The Writer.
  
  
• Behind the scenes content that will chronical and document the creation of a project.

• For all visual oriented projects (art series and publications) you will get:

• Stills of doodles, sketches, and rough to finalized concept art.
  
  
• Time lapses of the artwork being created for that project and will include an audio track of me providing insights into the making of the project.
  
  
• For all music oriented projects you will get:
  
  
• A "making of" video where I discuss the behind the scenes of making each album from conception to the release.
  
  
• Related to my Re-Score Albums, I will be providing video clips of the scenes for which the album was composed to. While publicly there are already select short clips and full tracks synced to picture, but they are only selected highlights from the album. What I am doing different here is providing ALL the tracks synced to picture so it will be like getting to watch the film with my music in place of the original score.
  
  
• My vlog series of my journey to becoming a composer later in life.
  
  
• Archives of older creations. These will mostly be centered around art and music that was created when I was younger as well as previous freelance projects that never went anywhere. You will get to see and hear how I grew and improved my art and music over the years. Publications won't have an archive as I wasn't really doing any writing. The little I did ae currently being developed into upcoming publications.

SUB 3 - DISGRUNTLED FELLOWSHIP

For those who want to get access to all the perks and exclusive content for more than one category, this fellowship subscription will be your better option as it will be cheaper than subscribing to all three categories individually. You will get all the same things as you do in Subscription 2 - Disgruntled Membership with the added bonus that it applies to ALL three categories - music, publications and art. So that's three times the perks, exclusive and archived content, and free downloadable releases. With badges, there will be three total, one for each category so it will be you supporting D4Disgruntled The Composer, The Artist and The Writer.

AWARDS FOR THE DEVOTED

For those who remain a subscriber for a year, you will be rewarded for your ongoing support. If you are a monthly subscriber, you have to remain a subscriber for 12 months consecutively from the date of your subscription start date – not cumulative from starting and stopping your subscription. Those who have annual subscriptions are automatically eligible but you won't get the rewards until the end of the 12 month.

• Your badge will get updated to an official plaque as an anniversary gift commemorating you being a devoted follower, fan, and subscriber. You will get one for every year you remain a subscriber.

• You will get a free art print of an original piece done in the spirit of the artwork seen in the online art series but was not ever part of any of the online series. The work will be made available for viewing online but will not be made purchase in the store or elsewhere. It will be restricted to being available only to those who stay subscribed for 12 months.

• One free physical merch item per project category, three in total. So that is one free physical publication of your choice (that is not locked behind a subscription), one free CD of your choice of my music, and one free art print from any of the collections.
