		<description><![CDATA[Thanks so much to everyone who came out to celebrate the release of Microcosm with us at Kinetic Playground. We couldn&#8217;t have had a better time. If you took any photos at the show, feel free to send them over to us. If you weren&#8217;t able to pick up a copy of Microcosm because you don&#8217;t live in Chicago, fear not, you can now order our sleek new digipaks at www.music.thisisautomata.com. Get em&#8217; while they&#8217;re hot. In other news, The Plea is now in rotation on Fearless Radio. Fans can request music by using the Big Blue Request Button on www.fearlessradio.com.  Either scroll through the music or use the search tool at the bottom of the request page.  Requests can be made two times per hour, up to ten times per day for any given user. If Automata makes it into the top 25 for the week, we&#8217;ll get another song added to regular rotation.  If we make it to the top five, they will be featured on their weekly show, The Fearless Five, hosted by founder Patrick &#8220;Papa Crunch&#8221; Oliver. So, send in your requests!]]></description>

To our surprise, many people have told us they want to support our music by paying to download our album. We&#8217;re going to continue to offer the free download of Microcosm while simultaneously selling it on iTunes, Rhapsody, Napster and just about every other digital distribution platform you can imagine. It&#8217;s our hope that people, regardless if they downloaded Microcosm for free or purchased it, will rate/review our music on iTunes or whichever digital player they use and considering adding it to any of their iMixes. By the way, we received the physical units of Microcosm and they look amazing. Release show information to be&#8230; released&#8230; shortly.]]></description>
