Hallo. It’s been a while.

February Album Writing Month was a challenge that, last year, gave me two songs to use for WERX. This year it’s given me the bones of an entire concept album which, fingers crossed, will be ready by the end of April. Go check out the site and listen to the incredible amount of talent over there.

Secondly, there’s new stuff on the site! Namely, the addition of a Flash player to the album pages so you can listen to tracks without having to download those hefty zip files.

To show off the new player, and also to air a track that’ll probably never be heard otherwise, take a listen to the first track of an album I gave up work on because My Chemical Romance came out with The Black Parade and the idea was too similar. This is called The Theme Of Dr. T, and it can also be found on the new “Randoms” page for musical orphans on the right hand side there.

The big news around here lately is that my second album, How To Fall, has just been released for free download from this very site. It can be obtained right over here as a zip file.

I have been enlightened to the benefits of placing all of my music available for free under a Creative Commons “some rights reserved” license, and to celebrate this I would like to encourage remixes and covers or alternate takes of any song from WERX (found here) or How To Fall. The one condition is that they must too be available for free! Record them, upload them somewhere and leave the link as a comment.
