So I'm getting pretty close to having the music recording part of the album finished, excepting the two songs I plan to do with Sarah Clark. I'm going to record tonight to fix up some little problems here and there, but overall all the songs are recorded and mixed in a very rough fashion. I'm a little concerned about the sound--for some reason there seems to be a quality difference between these songs and Hope Flies--but it's not really an issue, becuase you would only notice it by comparing them back to back, and I'm giving the album away for free anyway.
So yes, I have chosen a distribution plan. Once again, I'll be giving the album out for free on my site. My plan is to add a donation button so that if people would like to contribute, they can. People who do donate will get access to bonus tracks (there will be several), exclusive remixes, and higher-definition versions of the songs on the album. People who don't, well, hey, they've still gotten two completely free albums from me, what more do they want? Anyway, I've discussed this plan with a friend, who assures me that it's financially viable, and in fact is the most ideal plan...there was something about a triangle. I didn't really understand the finer points of what she said, but it's good to have it approved by someone who knows more about that sort of thing than me (which, I should point out, is nearly everyone).
Anyway, I still have a lot to do. Create promotional materials, mixing (shudder), record the songs with Sarah, create the website, and contact people about getting it reviewed....damn.
