FFRock + Disturbed = Yes
Since the moment I started FFR over 5 years ago, I have had a short list of milestones that I had hoped to accomplish. 500,000 members was one of them, engaging and building an online community was another. Among my list (and I am not kidding) was to have Disturbed as one of our artists featured in one of our games.
And today we have just that, full permission from the band.
Chicago being my hometown meant I had a certain admiration for Disturbed. I felt that during the mid to late 90′s and beyond, they kept rock alive in this city and across the nation. Always bringing a distinct musical and vocal flavor to everything they touched. Now here they sit, validated veterans of rock that understand how times are changing. They see the value in reaching out to online music communities and games like FFR and Rithum. This is where the youth lives and the youth needs to be exposed to their music.
Occasionally I will push an artist that we believe in over here at FFR. Today though I going to whore out the links because these guys deserve every bit of it. It’s truly an honor. Thank you to all the band members that made this possible.

We are also featuring the very first FFRock widget here on FFR. FFRock is a completely backwards compatible 5 key supporting widget that was built in admin castle while we spent 2 months in California. As time goes on, expect FFRock to evolve. (oh the plans we have) All of you veterans make sure you scroll down to the heavy levels! Expect some hard as hell FFR levels to follow in the near future.

Thanks to everyone who took part in this project, you know who you are. Keep watching, this is going to be a fantastic year.
Cheers,

MFA? WTF is an MFA?
Tonight I will be giving you guys and gals a sneak peak at a little something special. It’s the thing above this post that shows a huge RITHUM logo.
It’s important to note that this MFA player is not meant for FFR. It is designed to work within the new Rithum.com and for artists and bands on myspace itself. It is here because I value your input more than you know.
Also, the FFR widget is currently being stripped out of this MFA and replaced with a brand new widget game, which we will be posting on the front page sometime here today. Of course the new game deserves an amazing artist and we will deliver on that front as well.
Play, listen, test and enjoy. It will be gone tomorrow.
Cheers,
Synthlight
***P.S.*** I wanted to mention that FFRock is currently being implemented into the MFA and is being wired up so that it displays the correct data. Later tonight we are going to announce the first group to use the FFRock style widget. There are hints out there if you care to look around the web.
