It is a DIGITAL-ONLY release, meaning you will only be able to procure it on iTunes, Amazon, Napster and other digital download stores. But who buys CDs anymore, right?! Only people from THE NINTIES would do that! Those crazy clueless bastards!
I sent it off to CD Baby today, which means that it should be up on iTunes within a week or two. There is still a slight wait before you get to plunder this musical booty!

The new album is in the mixing stage now! And, well, since I’ve been informally calling it Applewine since the beginning of the summer and I haven’t thought of anything else I like better, it looks like that’s the title. It may change though, who knows. Also, Madeline Stevens will be doing the album art. Her style is very homegrown, collagey and mossy, and I think it will be a totally different look from what I usually do.
And that brings up another subject: Not only will the album art be in color this time, but the CDs will be ACTUAL CDs, not CD-Rs. So, if everything goes according to plan, it will be indistinguishable from an actual commercial CD. I’ve always liked the homemade feel of my products, but I think it’s time to take the pro factor up a notch, so more people will actually take it seriously. (What, you mean black and white photocopies of a poorly drawn avian tombstone don’t get Jann Wenner begging for more? What about the WHITE ALBUM huh?!) That’s the hope anyway. The only problem is that this takes money! Donate to the cause by buying my CDs and songs!! Just pretend I’m a wild-eyed hobo downtown asking for money and a guinea pig. So while the speech part of Applewine is wrapping up fairly soon, the visual aide part of this musical science presentation might take a while longer to get done. Hopefully it’ll be out by the end of the year.
Finally, Alyssa has started working on a total redesign of this site. So far it looks super aces, now she just needs to make everything functional. The plan is for the unveiling to coincide with the album release. Woof!
Universally,
Alex
