Dark ambient, soundscapes, etc. that don’t quite fit the mood of TheForgotton.

RPM Challenge

I’ve known about the RPM Challenge (create an album in the month of February) for several months now but I’ve been hoping to finish a project that I started around the end of January first. I got sidetracked by a remix contest for Steven Wilson’s new album Insurgentes. I’ve finished the remix and I’m more than 3/5 through with Helix, but seeing that I had a week left to get my stuff together for RPM, I spent most of the weekend working on something new. I’ve completed three fairly minimal drones for this project that total 56 minutes of music. I haven’t decided on titles for the songs or started on album art.

Stochastic Resonance and CD BABY!

I mentioned earlier that my third Caustic Reverie album has now been pressed. Here’s some pictures and links for you to listen and perhaps buy it.

I’ve put three of my albums up on CD Baby.
Absent, Mute, and Stochastic Resonance are for sale for $10.00 each, or $5.00 each if you buy all three. If there’s a good reaction, I’ll see about making the rest of the catalog available.

By all means, feel free to download and listen before you buy.

Misc. crap

I was sick for a few days and got out of the habit of updating this. I’ve gotten Stochastic Resonance pressed through Kunaki and sent copies of the first three albums to CD Baby. If the response is good, I’ll look into getting the whole Caustic Reverie and TheForgotton catalog on there.

I’ve completed an entry in the Steven Wilson contest for his track Abandoner. My remix is entitled Abandoner-Hypothermia.

Work on Helix continues, though I’m finding myself playing Left 4 Dead a little more than I should if I want to get it out before March. The call of the Purp compels me.

Absent pressed!

I’ve just got something in the mail that brightened my day: my first album in physical form! It’s now available from Kunaki for the reasonable price of $6.00, so you too can have the joy of finding one of these in your mailbox. The album is still available for free download from Jamendo and last.fm, so feel free to give it a test-drive before clicking the tantalizingly sexy BUY NOW button.

Pardon the amateur photography.

I’m looking into having it carried by CDBaby and possibly Amazon.
