7/23 - Finally. It's been months since the last update...but with good reason. Between moving out, moving in, setting up, recording and work, the website has taken a very distant position in my life. The time has come, however, to let all of you know what's going on with the album and the website. A lot has changed...

First off, the album has a couple of new tracks (some set in stone, others still up for debate). "Sunlit Scrapbook", a revised version of a song I wrote back in high school for the various bands I was a part of, will now be part of the BD line-up. I actually started the recording of this song last week and am almost finished with the track. It is the only acoustic song on the album, with a little alternative/electronic twist at the end. In addition to "Sunlit", a track entitled "Satellite" will also be added to the track listing. An electronic/rock mix of "Sunlit" is another possible addition to BD, but that's still up in the air. Other than that, the track listing is about the same as the original listing.

Last week I took "Apophis" and "Right Through (Gone)" into Trax 52 Recording Studio to be leveled out and mastered. The final products of these two songs sound absolutely incredible. Another session at Trax has been booked for August 1st, with a third session coming soon after that. In other words, the album WILL be finished and released this August.

I was originally going to release the final versions of "Apophis" and "Right Through (Gone)" before the album's release. I now, however, have decided to hold these tracks until the release of "Beautiful Disaster" since its arrival is in less than a month anyway. I think all of you can wait a couple weeks.

Upon the release of the album, sales will be coordinated through this website, myself, and dedicated distributors of my album. On that note, I am looking for dedicated and motivated fans to help with the distribution and spread of the "Beautiful Disaster" album. Contact me via e-mail or via Facebook (preferably facebook) if you are interested in helping with this project. Oh, and profits will come your way...

The rest of the website will be completed upon the release of the album. Check back soon for more...I'm out.
