A New World, PT. 2

And the other new one:

A New World, PT. 1

Been playing with the idea of a mixed media project. Was listening to a lot of Coheed & Cambria for awhile, and then rediscovered a project called VAST. Also been listening to Queensryche, especially Operation: Mindcrime. Talked to a couple of friends, and slowly fleshing things out. Basically, there will be both some kind of literary piece as well as music. A comic book or graphic novel will serve as a basis for an album of work. The writing will likely be very sci-fi, and the music will be heavier than what I've been working on, and perhaps more technical too. All of it will be collective, that meaning that while I might be the impetus for it, there will be multiple pople and sources involved with this. Each might take on a part or a character, or they might take turns writing entire sections. I'm not sure how it will turn out, but was involved in a similar project a few years ago. It was a lot of fun, and very casual, and as such was short-lived, but the quality was there. Here's a sneak peek of what's in the cooker:

Revisit

Well, it's been awhile. However, here are the fruits of some new gear and a day's labour. A revisiting and recrafting of an older tune, or two.

This might even be what my buddy Aitch would call 'country music'. Heh.

Already have more reworkings, recordings and compositions on the go; this is the most complete. Enjoy.
