World’s craziest music project
By: Roland Denk Austria
Hello and Welcome to the world's craziest music project! 
So what is this all about?
The aim of this project is to produce a number one hit-single, simply by following the step-by-step guide "THE MANUAL (HOW TO HAVE A NUMBER ONE THE EASY WAY) written by "The Timelords" Lord Rock and Timeboy (Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty) A.K.A. THE KLF in 1988. See Wikipedia or just google for more info about The Manual!
Why do I need money for this?
The main steps of The Manual require a lot of money, although the first step which I already finished was completely free: "Firstly, you must be skint and on the dole"... See attached file "facts & figures" for more info about what I am raising money for!
Has anyone already had success by following "THE MANUAL"?
YES, OF COURSE! One example is the Austrian Eurotrash band "Edelweiss" with their worldwide hit "Bring Me Edelweiss". Many other successfull artists have been influenced by The Manual as well!
How did I come up with the idea?
Well, firstly I never wanted to do anything else than producing a number one hit, this is my lifelong dream! When a college friend from my audio engineering course told me about The Manual and since I read it and listened to the audiobook I was sure like never before in my life: THIS IS IT!
Do I have experience in producing songs?
Yes, although The Manual says that this is not necessary, I am now an educated Audio Engineer and I already achieved smaller successes in the local electronic scene some years ago.
What kind of song and when will it be released?
It's gonna be a catchy pop song and I plan to release it in November.
What if crowdfunding fails?
Maybe I'll have to find a crappy 9-to-5 job again or win the lottery, who knows?!
Crazy enough? - Then be part of it!
Thanks for your support,
Roland

Dear Backers & Followers,
as some people were asking for references I will post them here.
These dance-songs were produced and released many years before I did my education as an audio engineer:
