Why would artists want this vile agency speaking for them? They do little more than create an endless stream of bad press for musicians.

AMUC: Dead In The Water - seven minute title track

Tue, 01 Jan 2008 12:24:11 -0800

I just uploaded the title track from AMUC's new album, entitled Dead In The Water. It's over seven minutes long, and available for free download. As I finish mastering the other tracks from the album, I'll be posting them here. (Once the whole album is fully mastered, I plan to post it to both Last FM and Jamendo as well.) Overall, I'm happy with the results here. It's an interesting combination of ambient, electronica, and it even teases a bit of a loud rock vibe here and there. You can help me out by downloading the track, and keeping an ear out for any 'weird' noise. (The noise that doesn't sound like it's intentionally supposed to be there.) I think I caught most of it, but you begin to get a little desensitized to it all after listening to the same #?%! song four dozen times in one day.

Just posted a new song : Don't Let Her Go.

Thu, 03 May 2007 03:39:07 -0700

I posted another track from the Well Of Thoughts album. It's called "Don't Let Her Go." The name actually comes from a dream I had. It's one of those sound-only dreams you get as you're coming out of sleep. The title of song was said at the very end of the dream, just as I was waking up. (No idea who the 'her' is - dreams don't always explain stuff like that.) Just to get copyright stuff out of the way: I used one sample from Freesound (http://freesound.iua.upf.edu/): 5288_Hell_s_Sound_Guy_FEMALE_GIGGLE The sample is under a Creative Commons license, which can be found here: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/sampling+/1.0/

Internet Radio is screwed by a new ruling - sign this petition!

Mon, 09 Apr 2007 06:48:24 -0700

This is the RIAA's latest attempt to stifle any media that they can't control. A new ruling by the Copyright Royalty Board is now charging internet radio stations per song they play, rather than a fixed fee for a designated time period. This adds up to more than 100% of the total income for many online radio stations. Go here to sign the petition: http://www.saveourinternetradio.com/2007/03/05/mad-as-hell-about-the-threat-to-internet-radio/

I just added some more music.

I added music from both 'Nada' and Well Of Thoughts, as well as a song I did between the two projects. (It's debatable what album it belongs under.)

Glad to be here.

The Continental Version: I've uploaded one of the best tracks from Well Of Thoughts, and plan to upload more when I have a chance. (Irving Finkelstein is currently formatting some of the other tracks for upload.) Oops - wait - this is supposed to be longer than the blog post excerpt, right? Okay - I just need to think of something else to say. Hm - what else can I ramble on about? Darn it - this is tough. Irving is much better at typing nonsense than I am. Unfortunately, he's feeling a little under the weather right now. I never knew imaginary people could get flesh-eating viruses. I don't think they have health insurance for fictitious people either, which really sucks. Irving feels that this is discriminatory - the mere fact he's a non-real entity doesn't mean he should be held down by the man because of it.
