For my next trick . . .

I thought I'd give an update as to my plans for future projects. It's been a while.

I'm still waiting on my guest singer to find the time to lay down the vocals for "Travelers." She's pretty busy and with the holidays it might be a while. After she does that I'll do a final mix and upload it to the usual places. I'm sure you'll dig it.

I also want to do another song, one that was inspired directly by my goddaughter--who is getting a co-writing credit on it, since she came up with the whole concept, bascially. Only seven and already knows all about rock and roll. Anyway, that'll be next.

After that I'm planning a pretty big project I'm calling Dagon for now. That may change. It'll be six or eight songs, most of them instrumentals, most of them dark and scary I hope. Another attempt at a soundtrack for a film that doesn't exist. The music that's going through my head now for it is quite powerful and a little complicated--this one is going to be a bit tricky. To be honest I'm a little intimidated. It's going to be a lot of work. But it'll be incredible if I can pull it off.

Problem is, I'm going to be moving in March. So, I'm not going to really get started on it until maybe April. I don't want to get half-way through it and then have to put it down for a couple of months--I know from experience that I can't just go back and pick up somewhere after staying away from a project for more than a couple of days. So, while I'll be planning and writing away, I won't actually start tracking until next spring.

And since this thing is supposed to be a unified whole I probably will upload all of it at once instead of incrementally. So that'll take even longer before you'll be able to freak yourself out with it.

So, in the mean time, you can listen to the stuff I have out there now. You'll find a good mix of heavy, dark tunes, and lighter, introspective stuff, some instrumentals . . . something for everyone. Keep an eye out for the two new songs, and maybe a few others if any stand-alone ideas occur to me in the mean time.

And have a happy holidsy!
