After only releasing EPs I’d been toying with the idea of making an album and after coming into contact with Net LabelRec72 I decided to make one, a lot of the tracks had already been recorded, some finished, some half finished and some like “Don’t Panic” were made especially for this album.
It’s entitled Soft Shapes and Rec72 is a Creative Commons label so that means it’s free to download.
Had some good news the other day, Lona Records will be releasing my new EP. The release date hasn’t been finalised but I’m guessing it will be early 2010.
Each track is available as full length preview at Last FM and Track 4 can be downloaded for free. I’m working on a video for the lead track which involves stop motion/time-lapse photography, so it’s taking forever to finish.
My favourite of the four is Sakura, inspired by Cherry Blossoms, Japanese Horror Movies, Brian Eno and Metronomes. It’s a free floating melody set over a repeating drum loop.
is the fact that you can allow people to preview your whole catalogue and give away free downloads. The Milenka and Kanza EPs have full previews of each song and one track from each EP is downloadable for free, there’s also a bunch of unreleased stuff that can also be downloaded for free, just follow the link below.
Welcome to my new blog, after a period of musical inactivity I have a new EP coming out soon, the release date has yet to be finalized but I’ll let you know when the good people at Lona records decide.
I spent most of my time making videos but I finally have 4 tracks that I think are good enough to be released.
I also have a load of other things going on but it’ll have to wait for another day.
