Hey Hey Hey – just a quick update. Gettin’ very excited about the next release, half a dozen tracks very near finished, sounding much to my liking

Also – coming very soon: a new video; not the one for “New Seven” that I’ve been working on but by a director who goes by the name of “La Alta”. Can’t wait!

The free download offer still stands for those who take the time to friend me either on facebook, myspace and now on reverb nation. Once you’re there just shoot a message or email to me and I’ll send you the link, and thanks!

You can get there quickly using the links in the post below or in the roster to the right.

This morning I resumed mixing on what might be the title track of the next album – “Beautiful Things”. (4/1/10 As things progress I see the possibilities for the cd’s name to change so I’ve edited out all the banter about it.)

New on the website:

I’ve tidied up the page for “Simple Work“, added some minutia for the bored and/or fans, and moved the “ingredients” info to it’s own page – where it is now much more concise & legible – and where links to the synth developers are provided right next to every synth listed, when possible.

“Tussle in B Minor” has been added to the audio player and the corrupt file for “Rollover” has been replaced with a good one. (Facebook fans recieved a free download of “Tussle” yesterday).

There are currently 7 tracks in various states of production for the next cd. If I had to pin a date on release – I’d say Spring 2011. I’d love it to be sooner – and regardless – singles will definitely be released early to fans and radio stations that accept digital. The final product will be an actual hardcopy.

Thanks for stopping by!  – SO (KM)

I love coming across unreleased music that is totally worthwhile – there’s so very much available that you wish wasn’t out there. (Wouldn’t it be nice if there was some sort of overlord rating system for all music found on the internet – voted by all people, culled from all applications and sites – with votes from people who are experts in a particular genre getting more weight- and seriously bad music being tagged with engine search warnings in red like you see on yahoo: ” Warning – the mp3s offered for free on this site might suck and seriously harm your patience and disposition“. I think it’s needless to say I don’t do a whole lot of indie music trolling.

I also don’t do a lot of blogs – hardly any – but I came across this one and posted it a year or two ago before I switched to wordpress. It’s by the gentleman who created the vst plugin “Glitch” (which I’ve yet to experiment with, although I plan to). Look for the “dblue 1985″ post (don’t worry – he’s not a prolific blogger either) and download the music. A tune from it popped up on my player in the car this morning – reminded me how much I liked it! Make sure you read the description in the post. Very cool stuff (the somewhat abrasive opening track is not indicative of the style or sound of the rest of the music – for you scaredy-cats).  Enjoy! and feel free to let me know about other equally awesome electronic music out there.
