I debated a lot about holding back tracks until I had an EP or album and then putting them out in that format, but then decided, given the intermittent nature of this all, to just go ahead and keep releasing these as I finish them up.
This one took a while — just shy of a year, off and on. In part it’s because there’s a lot of fine editing, but mostly it’s because I kept getting stuck and back-burnering it, then pulling it up later and working through it. It definitely was a “butt in chair” project, rather than a “whirlwind of inspiration” project. However, I think that, after poking at it again and again, it’s finally hit a point where I’m happy with it and ready to toss it out there. (As it’s been in development for so long, I suspect that some of you may have heard earlier versions.)

I *think* that the Flattr thing should be set up now, so if you use Flattr and like the track, feel free to click it!

SoundCloud seems to be taking off by leaps and bounds. I admit that I’m WAY behind the curve on that. However, I’ve just made my most recent album, “Everything Comes Around,” available there. If you’re an ardent SoundCloud user, you can check it out and do all the usual SoundCloudey stuff (commenting, etc.) here. I’m [...]

My friend Lora tipped me off about Flattr, a system for making micropayments for content creators and bloggers whose stuff you enjoy. It seems like a pretty workable idea, actually, so I’ve enabled Flattr buttons on all my stuff. That way, if people like a new track, they can click to add it to their [...]

So, I’ve gathered all the stray tracks from 2009 to present into an album and titled it, “Everything Comes Along.” For the most part, there’s no need to download it again if you’ve been downloading the individual tracks, but if you want the correct album artwork, track numbering, title, ID3 info., etc., then it might [...]

So, it turned out that one of the crossposting plugins that I thought was actually working wasn’t, which occasioned me not only fixing that one, but getting crossposting tools for ALL THE PLACES. So stuff I post here should now automagically show up everywhere. Whee! (Yes, I’m certain that this was worth a post.) So, [...]

It’s very strange being “back in the studio”. (I put that in quotes because my studio is my den and is primarily just a room with a computer desk and a computer, and I work a day job and spend at most a few hours a day in here working on music, if that.) It [...]

So, my resolution for 2011 on this blog was to post more tracks than I did in 2010. Easy, right? I mean, I partly made that resolution because 2010 was so darned thin on the ground. Well, as you can see, that hasn’t been happening. I’m not sure what explanation to offer other than that [...]

Since we’ve been showing our house, I’ve had to dismantle my studio and make it look like a generic computer room, and all my synthesizers are locked in the server room at work. They recently released Virus OS 4.5.2 and then updated it today with 4.5.3, so I decided to pull the Virus out and [...]
