"Don't let them" and other news.

Almost a year has passed without giving you some news. I am still working on a new album, I already released some tracks on Soundcloud, some videos have been uploaded on YouTube and I got a surprise from the Hubble Space Telescope.

But first, I uploaded my album Wormhole on Jamendo:


Why, you may ask, because I wasn't happy about their site for various reasons. I realized that not many people go to http://elvenheim.bandcamp.com/ to listen or download my music. I got the most public on FreeMusicArchive (FMA), but their site seems dead to me. I uploaded only one track from the album on FMA with a link to bandcamp in the description, but nobody seemed to care about it. So now I wanted to upload the rest of the album on FMA, without success though. The tracks are pending, and stay pending forever no matter what I try to do.

Then I looked back to Jamendo, their site seem to work now and I still have an audience there, much more than on bandcamp. So I decided to upload the album also on Jamendo.

That's it about my last (and already old) album. Now for the new stuff. Yes, I am still working on a new album, but I have no idea when it will be released (it will be released once it's finished).

I won't tell much about the next album, there will be new things, maybe some surprises, but overall I think it will be a nice easy to listen-to experience.

Here is a video of "A fantastic journey", a track for the new album:

Two other new tracks, maybe not for the album : "Glistering Sun" and "On the move again" :




Midicrash Surge sent me a recording of Tinna singing and asked me to do something with it without giving me anything else, not even the tempo :). So this is what i came up with: "Don't let them ..."


Surge did a video for the song:



And now for the surprise : I was watching the video "Clash of the Titans: Hubble's Universe Unfiltered" on the YouTube Channel of Hubble Space Telescope when I suddenly realized that my song "Stars" from "strolling through electronic spaces" was playing during the visualization of the Andromeda galaxy approaching and slamming into our Milky Way (starting at 16:14). But they forgot to mention me, so I told them I was very pleased to have my music featured in the video, and asked them to give me credit. They did, and I got even more happier.



That's about it for now, I hope you enjoy listening!

Wormhole

My new album Wormhole is finally finished and available!

Listen to and download it here: http://elvenheim.bandcamp.com/

That was over a year of work. Initially I thought to release it around the end of 2011, but I couldn't finish it at that time. Don't get it wrong, I didn't work on it like "non-stop". I have a job, a family, I can't work on it all day.

I did some final adjustements just a few days before. A major "adjustement" was about changing the 6th track - Alcubierre Drive. Although I did the track about a year ago, it never really convinced me and I was about to take it out from the album. But then I changed completely the drums, changed the EQ, and added some kind of melody. The result is on the album.

Enjoy listening!

Project : The Rust Factory

I'm participating in a project called "The Rust Factory".

The project is about a story which takes place in a fictive future where industries took the leadership of almost the entire world. There are no countries anymore, but worker communities instead.

Every musician participating is in charge of one part of the history (equals to one track). I'm actually doing the third track.

My album "Wormhole" is therefore delayed... but not cancelled!
