GLAC-19 is released!

February 26, 2010 in Catalog, General, New Stuff by glacial23

My RPM Challenge 2010 Album is done. Here’s a streamable version on SoundCloud:

(Here’s another link to the set in case the embed isn’t working…)

Yes, all the titles are mathematically oriented. There will probably be some further explorations in that direction later in the year. Stay tuned.

There will be a handful of free CDs given away to people who become a fan on Facebook. I might even include a copy of the GLAC-18 cassette as well – the whole glacial DIY experience for free, for a select few! Giveaway will occur in a few days.

Recording progress and more…

February 12, 2010 in General, New Stuff by glacial23

Recording progress is moving along nicely. I think I’ve almost hit ten tracks in various states of completion, ranging from “this needs a bunch more done to it” to “this is pretty much ready to go”. Stylistically it’s all over the map. Finishing by February 28th should be no problem. I’ve still yet to solder anything, though I almost need to – the input jack of my trigger-to-MIDISync converter kind of broke, but I haven’t needed it in a while.

If you want to get a flavor of what this is going to sound like, check out my Soundcloud page – any of the tracks uploaded this month are either close to finished product or jams where I worked out the parts of the song.

In non-album-recording news, I’ve been up to a few things:

1) In conjunction with The Makers Alliance (the Cleveland hackerspace effort), I’ve started an effort leading towards a Handmade Music event in Cleveland. If you’re interested, please check out the Handmade Music Cleveland Facebook group.

2) I’ve been doing some editing and backfill on the Catalog page – so now things are set so that the next release will be GLAC-19, and there are no empty spots in-between. The page still needs some work, but it’s getting there.

3) I’ve made some preparations to allow for some nicer-looking CD-R productions if folks want that sort of thing. More on that soon, maybe?
