Physical Media Isn’t Dead (to me anyhow)

First let me start off by saying progress on the new album is slow.  Have not completed a song since last time (though I changed up what I had a bit and relayed down some of the tracks changing up the order).  I have not been feeling at my best the last few months and this has slowed me down a bit.  However, there are some musical reasons for the trudge as well, which I will go over in the next update.


The focus of this update is the creation of physical media.  I have taken our 5 albums and cut them to 4 CDs (leaving out the Christmas Single).

The first album (Were Making Music Now) gets its own CD.  This album sort of stands out on its own as it does not fit into the story really.  It is a bunch of demo’s that we decided to put together and make an album. 

 

The next two albums were really short, so I combined them onto one CD.  Interstellar Sounds (3 songs) and Invasion Earth (4 songs).  The story really can go right through all of these really simply.  It made sense to combine these.

 

The next CD is the Songs From the Silicon Heart album.  This sort of stood on its own as it was the songs sung by the spacecraft to the aliens to show our worth.  Though it is still relatively short (5 songs) it sort of stood on its own.  As I have already said that there will be a Songs From The Silicon Heart II at some point, maybe I will add them all onto one CD (we are still talking a bit further into the future).

 

Finally Intergalactic Road Trip gets the last CD.  There were 8 songs on this CD (so not too small) and it was a nice return to story (why it is a nicer than the current one will be discussed in the next update). 

 

I have included a picture of all the CDs.  You can see all of them are adorned with artwork from the album cover/videos.  I think the presentation adds to them a bit.  Currently I am not listing them for sale (I might do that at some point here, but not really planning on it).  If you want one (or all), just message me (provide an email or some way to contact you back) and I will get back to you.
