Cinema Bizarre VISA credit cards! ^^

 Howdy!!

I hope everyone is doing well! :3

Yet again a new blog entry, and this time about the Cinema Bizarre VISA credit cards!

Yep, you heard that right!

Cinema Bizarre had their own themed VISA credit cards!

in 2008, though the Cinema Bizarre's official band website, you could order a VISA card with one of the 6 offered designs - with Strify, Kiro, Yu, Shin, Luminor, or of the whole band, with the cards being themed after the "Escape to the Stars" music video.

On the website, it said, that anyone aged from 12 years old would be able to get the Cinema Bizarre card for free and you'll get a special bonus per euro spent with the card, and then you'll be able to redeem rewards on the Cinema Bizarre merch shop with those points; and also, if you got lucky, you could win a special meet and greet with the whole band!

there were 3 types of Cinema Bizarre cards that you could have:

• BEATPAY VISA CARD prepaid - for young people aged 12 and up
• BEATPAY VISA CARD young - the card for young adults from 18 years and older for  €1.99 per month, with a monthly spending limit of €1,000
• BEATPAY VISA CARD premium - the card for young adults from 18 years and older for only €2.99 per month, with a monthly spending limit of €2,500

i think that it would've been so awesome to have a Cinema Bizarre credit card....

also, it was super hard to find any pictures of the cards! i started writing this blog almost 7 months ago with the idea that i will post it soon, but as it turned out, it was impossible to find the photos of the cards, so thats why i gave up, and only now, 3 days ago, i accidentally found all of the pictures ive been desiring to find in a random peruian CB blog... (many thanks to the person who made the blog 16 years ago!)

and so, here are the pics!!! : (the guys look amazing here!)

thanks for reading my blog!! <3

Luminor's collaboration with Nik Page on 2 songs on his EP ''voices from outer space" in 2009

 Howdy!

Today i made a rather interesting discovery - that Lumi had made a collab with a german electro goth rock artist, and a member of 80s synth band "Blind Passengers" member - Nik Page!

Prior to this discovery i hadn't even known of this artist O.O

While browsing an old Cinema Bizarre blog, i found this screenshot, and was excited to learn that we can hear Lumi's voice on 2 different songs!

You can hear him sing on the songs "Your Bad Temptation (Tuesday Edit)" and "Voices From Outer Space (Extended Version)"!

The songs are also really catchy, and Luminor's voice is so pretty! <3

It would be so cool i could get my hands on this cd...

and here are the scans of the cd, that you can also find at the discogs page of the EP!:

there were no good quality uploads of the songs, so i had to specifically search for them online (had to spend an hour and 20 minutes downloading both of of the songs), and so now you can download the songs after clicking this link that leads you to my google drive folder with both of the songs!:
