Hey all - okay first up, there's a new track uploaded called "Far From Home" (some of you may know it as SRMV, an old clip that was kicking around for the longest time!). It's going to be a prelude to Terminus on the new CD, and the back story ties up quite nicely. Should sound pretty cool.
Now - as for 'At the Dream's Edge', I'm at the point of having only 2 more tracks to push past the 3 - 4 minute mark and then it's done! There are a few things I'd like to include if I can, but I'm setting myself a deadline here. 5 years is long enough. So, this will be the last update until the CD is ready to buy. I'll sit on the new finished songs until then, so hopefully there will be some nice surprises!
So it's back to the studio (see: bedroom) to get this done. Wish me luck :)

A nice little surprise...
For anyone in or around Essex, you can catch 'Supererogation' tonight at 7pm during the 'Introducing' Unsigned hour on BBC Essex! Perhaps go for a drive, whack it on, and pretend you're in a flying taxi/delorian/other :]

New track finished (well...99%) and uploaded...
Hey all! I've uploaded a fairly complete version of a new song 'Harvey Wallbanger' (although I have other titles in mind for it!). You can find it at MySpace and Soundclick. A few things are likely to change but I'm impatient...and at least it'll leave an element of surprise when it's on the CD ;]
Oh and also, I thought I'd just share some test renders I put together to get a feel for the theme and artwork to go with it. I tried to put them in this post but completely butchered it, so they'll be over in the downloads area!

AMC 3 released
The final pack in the Ambient Metal Constructions series is now available at Producerloops.com! You can check out an audio demo and a free 30MB sampler here.
Work has already started on the next sample pack...sufficed to say, it's going to be completely different. But I'll keep quiet on that one until it's ready. Enjoy!

"At the Dream's Edge" - Progress
Here we go - a makeshift track listing, and progress update. Almost there...I can feel it. And it feels good. Like an awesome sneeze.
Supererogation [ finished + extended intro ]
Yellow Jacket [ 30% ]
All Roads Lead Here [ 85% ]
Probe's Day Out [ 30% ]
At the Dream's Edge [ finished ]
The Mirror [ finished ]
Harvey Wallbanger [ finished ]
Bad Code [ finished ]
Welcome to the Fold [ 75% ]
Mad Touch [ 30% ]
A Song for Heroes [ 90% ]
Terminus [ finished ]
Under One Sky [ 75% ]
All Good Things [ finished ]
As a maybe, "SRMV" should make an appearance but only if I can past the intro.
The order might change, as might some of the titles, and there might be a couple of new additions in the form of some ambient/mellow tracks but, that's more or less it!
I say it on a regular basis, but a huge thanks as always to the people who continue to buy my first CD, and remain patient with me and my terrible rate of progress. It's been a really long time coming but I hope it's going to be worth the wait. Now to make the final push...

New rough/demo clip uploaded
The product of a little midnight riffing - not entirely sure where this is going to fit in with the other material, but I already have some cheesy and strangely upbeat melodies in mind for it. For now the second half is just the first repeated but I'll think of something cooler :] Enjoy!

A quick/important note regarding Ambient Metal Constructions
I've had a few messages from people who have spotted this riff from my Soundclick page in various places. I actually ended up recycling this idea and using it as part of the Ambient Metal Constructions pack, which is sold as a royalty free song construction set, so nothing has been infringed upon. I'll add a note to the upload later on today just to clarify this - either that or take it down completely. Not sure which yet!
I'm ever grateful to people who take the time to let me know when my ideas do crop up in unexpected places, and it's been of great help to me many times. If you do think you've spotted something chimpy, by all means PM or email me! If you have any questions over the usage of sample packs, your best bet is to contact Producerloops directly.
