 Those
familiar with Lady Gaga's platinum album 'The Fame' will know
her bold rallying cry from the song "Starstruck",
her duet with Space
Cowboy featuring Flo Rida: “Space Cowboy just play
that track.”Indeed, the heavy bass, neck-breaking clap, sharp
synths and duet vocals on that album’s "Starstruck"
are courtesy of supa-producer/instrumentalist/vocalist Space
Cowboy. As Lady Gaga's collaborator and main foil in her intergalactic
adventures (as chronicled in the episodic Web series “Transmission
Gagavision”), Space Cowboy has built a loyal following as
enigmatic musician/dj/producer extraordinaire.
His new album "Digital Rockstar" will hit stores
today!

"HEARTS was recorded during a difficult year
in our each of our lives. Amidst the emotional ups and downs,
we managed to pull together an album's worth of songs that reflect
not only the darker side of human relationships, but how we
can take all the negative energy around us and use it to create
something beautiful. There is a heads to every tails. And if
you take a fall, you can either lie on the floor in agony, or
dust off your bruises and move on." -Brian Robertson of
Awesome New Republic
