Of the Uncaused Cause

Of the Uncaused Cause is Civilized Creature’s sixth full-length record and his second partner release with Renew the Arts. On this record, much of Ryan Lane’s style is the same, but there is continued improvement. His samples are cleaner, his lyrics clearer, his heart more tender than ever, and his concerns as pressing as his unrelenting rhythm section that refuses to be predictable. The album opens with “For Senses” which perfectly captures his current take on electric pop: “If I can’t hear / Uncover my ears.” It’s a plea for the physical senses to be utilized for a greater purpose. With such heart, it makes sense that Civilized Creature makes some of the best electronic pop—amazing to your ears, and even better for your heart. (Words by Justus Stout, President of Renew the Arts).

Renew the Arts helped Civilized Creature realize their vision for this record free of charge and free of strings by:

  • providing in-depth artistic feedback during the sequencing and mastering process
  • distributing the record digitally through our Renew the Arts Bandcamp label
  • sending the record for review to blogs with which we have developed relationships over the years
  • recommending the record to our fan base
  • paying for advertisement with various independent music platforms

Estimated monetary value of sponsorship: $1,500

If you provide your email address, we can get to know one another!

No, it's not a trap. We promise not to bombard your email inbox. In fact, most people complain we don't send enough emails! But here's what you can expect:

  1. In the following week or so you'll get a few messages. These are individually designed to catch you up on all the great things we're doing!
  2. Once you're caught up, you can expect (on average) one email a month, keeping you updated on the progress we're making toward our mission to liberate Christian creativity.
  3. And once you have a handle on our work, we can try to get you plugged in. Maybe you're an artist who wants to get more involved. Maybe you want to keep tabs on our projects. Whatever has drawn you to our work, this is the best way to get plugged in.
