'Ghosts' is officially out today!

It will be available on Jamendo for free download very soon. However, if you need it sooner, please contact me!

The New album is Finally Complete...

I just completed the new album!!! Release info to follow...

The new album is nearing completion. It should be out available online within the next month or so. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

I am not sure yet how it will be released. I am thinking of making it available on iTunes and Emusic rather than for free on Jamendo. Only time will tell!!!




The track listing is:

shoreline
the red sea
how do we get there from here
a cycle of days
action stations
lso
cigarettes and paris
ghosts and the distance between us
without strings (june '44)

I have already posted 'shoreline' and 'action stations' to MySpace. These are not the final versions, but...at least you can get an idea of how the album is shaping up.

New album on the way...

I have been hard at work on a new album and it is getting near completion. All of the songs have been written and I am in the fine tuning phase, to make sure each song is perfect and as interesting as possible.

While making this album I was concerned with 'feel'. Whatever length the songs ended up being while recording the bed tracks is essentially how long they will remain. If a song ended up being 7 minutes it will remain that length, but I endevoured to work with the song to make it live and breath and to feel exciting and natural...if that makes any sense. Unlike 'magnetic II', I made a conscious decision to not edit length to challenge myself to be more creative with instrumentation and melody.

So, because of this, the album will feature only 8 tracks and will be about 45 minutes in length.

Here is a listing of the tracks I anticipate being on the final release:

shoreline
the red sea
a cycle of days
action stations
lso
circumstances
ghosts and locusts
without strings (june '44)

I hope to start mixing and mastering soon. I will update here as things begin to happen.

I am back...

Well, I am back from my trip around the world. It is great to be back home. While traveling, I had hoped to come up with enough material to fill several albums. However, that was not the case. There were a lot of ideas, but not much more.

I do have four songs toward the next album though. Of course, it remains to be seen if they make the final cut or not. I think that they will.

So, I guess that is it for now.

Ciao
