A BigRedBarrel.com Song – Extra Life 2013

This is BigRedBarrel’s official Extra Life song. It’s on sale — alongside the Big Red Barrelcast theme song — at bigredbarrel.bandcamp.com.

The song is written, performed and produced by Kev, and the video was put together by me. Essentially, Kev did all the hard stuff, I made some text move.

All proceeds go to Extra Life.

The brain child of Doc Adams, Extra life has grown exponentially since it’s inception in 2008. At it’s heart Extra Life is a sponsored 24hour (25 hours this year) gaming marathon from which all donations go to help local Children’s Miracle Network hospitals. Last year alone gamers raised over $2,300,000 through Extra Life, and this year is set to be even higher. We at Big Red Barrel love everything that Extra Life stands for and we are very proud to be closely associated with the charity. You can read more about Extra Life in our Gaming for Good article, or by visiting Extra-Life.org

While you’re clicking around on the internet, why not sign up for this years Extra Life gaming marathon? Be sure to join team Big Red Barrel to raise money alongside your favourite podcasters, staff members and forum members alike!

If you can’t participate, all donations and sponsorships are very welcome. You can donate to the Big Red Barrel team as a whole or, if you’d prefer, you can donate directly to it’s team members.

Your friendly neighborhood animator, except he’s not that friendly and almost certainly lives nowhere near you. When he’s not tweening stuff around in Flash, Richard can be found justifying to himself that playing videogames is far more important than his architecture course.
