user posted imageuser posted imageNew Song & Video Premiereuser posted imageuser posted image

TEMA plans to record a new song on October 19th, 2008. The song, along with a video, will be released on October 27th. For the first two weeks, the video will be exclusively played on YouTube, but you'll still be able to watch the video from YouTube links placed on TEMA's blogs on Li.ru, the official site, and on TEMA's MySpace.

The video for TEMA's new song will be made into two versions: English, and a Russian translated version. The concept of the video and song is a secret right now.

People Who Work With TEMA

New Section About People Working With TEMA

TEMA is not just a music group, but also a giant international project. People who have worked with TEMA are not traditional employees. All of them are free artists who have decided to work with TEMA in their own time.

Some of them have worked with us for a few months, and some are still working with us. Everyone who has made even a small contribution to the development of TEMA will never be forgot ton, and we would like to tell you guys about them. For this purpose, we decided to make the section "They Make TEMA" on our official website (the section will appear very soon.) The section will be similar to TEMA's blog on Li.ru. with one difference: Information about a new person who works with TEMA will be highlighted on TEMA's blog every week, and the "They Make TEMA" section on www.supertema.ru will have permanent information that doesn't change. Starting today, you can read about TEMA's oldest friend Smile To read about Freddy Newton, go here: http://www.liveinternet.ru/users/1152837/post83971730/

-------------------------------

Name: Freddy Newton
Nickname: tAO
City: Los Angeles, California.
Country: The United States of America.

www.ultratao.com

tAO... Music group from America led by tAO Creative Productions.
12:21... International Pop Project with members from around the world.
TEMA... Led by Maugly Jr. from Moscow, Russia.
Blestyaschie Productions... Written English songs, and translated press releases for the pop group "Bounty" under Blestyaschie Productions. Their single is available for purchase in American record stores, as well as iTunes.
Kontakt... Moscow club kids. Written several English tracks for this talented up and coming group.
O. Kukisheva... Russian project from the Eastern side of Russia.
DMS... Moscow based project that deals with "Drifting Music Styles."
Beveled Propaganda... Clothing line based in Los Angeles, California. All items are designed by F. Newton.

Freddy Newton: "I first heard about TEMA when I read a press release that "t.A.T.u. are changing their name to t.E.M.a." I could tell the voices in the project were not of Volkova and Katina, so I searched to find the true vocalists. I came upon the "TEMA" project, and was extremely pleased by their raw talent, production behind their tracks, and meaningful lyrics. I contacted their producer about English-speaking lyrics. Their two creative directors at the time (Maugly Jr. & Natalia Kulesh) were pleased with the lyrics I presented, and an English-speaking colloboration was planned".
In addition to English lyrics for the TEMA project (as well as pitching their songs in English to famous American artists) I have translated press releases in English for the TEMA project, created merchandise with the TEMA logo available for sale in America, and currently run their official MySpace page."


Commentary by Maugly Jr:
"Freddy's a remarkable friend. It's interesting that a guy from America is so interested in Russian life, and even learned Russian because of that. That deserves admiration. Since TEMA began, Freddy has always been the most devoted friend of our project. Freddy works by handling TEMA's financial business outside of Russia, and I trust him completely. I've never met Freddy personally, yet our conversations forced me to trust him, even though I wouldn't trust a random acquaintance to buy a simple loaf of bread for me. It's a safe bet to say that Freddy is very Russian in nature, even though he lives in America."Smile

TEMA... российская поп-группа, продюсирование Маугли Jr.

Фредди Ньютон: «Впервые я узнал о ТЕМЕ, когда прочитал несколько публикаций о группе «t.A.T.u», якобы поменявшей название на «t.E.M.a». Сразу догадался, что в «новых» песнях группы поют не Волкова с Катиной, а кто-то другой. Поэтому мне захотелось узнать, кому на самом деле принадлежат эти голоса. Через некоторое время стало известно, что это самостоятельная группа ТЕМА. В песнях ТЕМЫ мне нравится всё: как музыкальная составляющая, так и наполненные смыслом стихи. Недолго думая, я написал письмо продюсеру группы насчёт англоязычных версиях песен ТЕМЫ».

На данный момент Фредди является не только администратором англоязычной версии официального сайта группы ТЕМА на Myspace, но и одного из Интернет-магазинов ТЕМЫ в Америке.



Комментарий Маугли Jr:

"Фредди, замечательный друг. Интересно, что Американский парень так интересуется жизнью в России и даже учит для этого русский язык. Это вызывает восхищение. За все время существования ТЕМЫ он всегда был самым преданным другом нашего проекта. Фредди занимается финансами ТЕМЫ за пределами России и я абсолютно ему доверяю. Я никогда не встречался с Фредди лично, но даже одно общение по интернету заставило, меня начать доверять ему, хотя некоторым своим знакомым я бы не доверил даже хлеба купить.

Наверно, можно сказать, что Фредди очень русский J по своей натуре, несмотря на то, что живет в Америке )".

Clothes From TEMA/Одежда от ТЕМЫ

Why do we need clothes?
It's a strange question, right?
We need clothes so you won't be cold, and so you can hide away anything that makes you feel uncomfortable.  We also need clothes so you can show your world view.  It can show what's in your soul, and what you show to the world.
Yes, it's possible to show these things through your clothes if you know what color of clothes to wear, and how people will perceive you and your style of clothes.
Although, the exception is that clothes can also make a creep look like a brilliant person.
Thus, we present "Clothes from TEMA."
Creative Production Group TEMA opens up two shops on the Internet at the same time.  One shop in Russia, and one shop in America (Managed by Freddy Newton.)
You can order these products from the store where you live.  Both of these shops complement each other.
Right now, we have a collection of laconic images with the trademark "TEMA," but the collection will constantly be changed with different graphics.  So, come in often to see if there is something that you might like more.
If you have any requests, such as the color options/graphic designs, write to us through this form on the site.

tAO Clothes

tAOI've been working really hard lately trying to get tAO on the map... More so in America, as it is my native country.  Well, I'm pleased to announce that we are also going to get in the clothing business.  Within a few months, tAO will launch their very first clothing line for fall, 2008.  The first clothing line by tAO CP will be called "Beveled Propaganda."  The BP line will be the wearable styles... But a coutoure line will follow later... The name of this line is still guarded, though I will talk about it as soon as it is up and running.  You will be able to puchase these fashions through the tAO website itself.  Well, that's all.  I hope you all like the styles when they are available, and I hope to be able to post a few sketches of what the clothing line will look like.
