升级版，有关麦斯米兰新专辑的集资计划

亲爱的朋友们，
我准备在今年冬天录制我的第七张专辑，专辑名称极可能会是"Mirage of Bliss"。
你们听说过"Pledge Music"吗？Pledge Music允许我能够独立录制和制作我的专辑，不依赖唱片公司。你们知道，专辑的制作所费不赀；Pledge的想法是，歌迷们 – 不再是在唱片发行后在商店购买一般商用光碟或唱片 – 而是利用Pledge Music在"Mirage of Bliss"正式发行之前即可成为整体过程的一部分。现在你们就可以在Pledge的网页上订购我的专辑 – 还有很多其他的东西！- 从而帮助我筹资以录制我的专辑；作为交换你们可以得到录制过程范围内独特的东西，例如只提供给"Pledger"的定期"Updates"（像少见、至今未公开的视频和录音），此外你们还可得到通常在别处买不到的特殊物品，这些所谓的"Exclusives"举例而言有：限量的商品、VIP体验和经我签名的纪念品，而这还不是全部 - 每一位Pledger都将在完整的新专辑于它处可购得之前即能取得：你们将在正式发行一周前就获得可数码下载的专辑。这对你们有利，也对我有利，对每一位参与者都有好处。
感谢你们的"Pledging"!
你们的麦斯米兰

Dear friends,
I'm planning to record my seventh album in winter of this year. Its title will most likely be "Mirage Of Bliss".
There is this cool thing called "Pledge Music". Pledge Music gives me the chance to record and have the album produced independently. As you might know, album productions are expensive. The Pledge idea is, that instead of fans going to the shop after the release to buy a standard album, with Pledge Music they can be part of the whole process already before the release. On the Pledge website you can order my new album - and much more - already now, which helps me to finance my recordings. In exchange you'll get exclusive material in the context of the album recording process, for example regular updates (like rare and previously unreleased videos and recordings) that are only available to the Pledgers. And you'll also get special items you usually cannot buy anywhere else. These so-called "Exclusives" are for example: rare merchandise, VIP experiences and signed memorabilia. But that's not all - every Pledger will receive the new album, in full, before it's available anywhere else. You will all get a digital download of my new record one week before its official release. By working this way, you'll be making it possible for me to put out my new album straight to you, as soon as possible. It's good for you, it's good for me - beneficial for everyone involved!
Thanks for Pledging!
Yours,
Maximilian
