When I fell off the face of the planet, I was hard at work on another album: The Riddle of Doom. The artwork has been recolored some, and currently even appears on this very blog.
I just don’t have the time. My little boy is now walking, talking, playing video games and Dungeons & Dragon even. We are teaching him to read. He also now has a baby brother. I am now the second-most long lasting employee at my workplace. I have really taken on a lot, which strangely is the entire theme of the unfinished album.
I did manage to squeeze out a brief video game piece for the Newgrounds Audio Portal. The Last Robot Kingdom of Blip 01. Please listen and enjoy it.
I am also slowly working out some small pieces that are intended to be background music for either magic acts or horror movies. Ideally, every song will be dual-purposed to both ends. I like some of what I’ve cooked up so far, but really want to have some longer pieces by the time it’s all finished.
I can (and have) put together fairly respectable demos given about 2 hours and some time on my analog 4-track. Those have been heard by family and quickly forgotten about. What goes on the site should be up to a higher standard.
One day, when I am ready again, I do very desperately want to finish the Riddle of Doom album.
There is still music. There will always be music.
