The album will be called Stumble. A Little Progress
Posted on January 28th, 2013 by The Daylight Complex at 1:39 am
I’ve been grinding away at the song “As You Leave” for the past three weeks, trying to get the arrangement into reasonable shape. I made progress this last week (I spent a disproportionate amount of time on the bass sound during the previous two), and now I’m finally feeling good about it. Album-wise, the song is an important one. I’ve the stirrings of a video concept for “As You Leave” in my head as well. I took an enjoyable little break from songwriting on Saturday to design some Dplex stickers and business cards. I will undoubtedly be offering some giveaways in the not-too-distant future… Status Report: 2013 Album Project

I’ve narrowed the album song candidates to 15 possibilities. Some new tracks added since the last list, a lot removed. I still plan to whittle the album down to ten tracks.

Since my previous album progress report I’ve added a new song entitled “The Out-of-Towners” to the “possibly” list. I’m making solid progress on the lyrics, and it’s become a favorite to fill one of the four remaining unassigned album slots. I’ve also added an untitled song with the working title of “Botnet” to the “possibly” list, but it’s much more of a long shot. I like the music, but lyrics have not been particularly forthcoming. I posted a work-in-progress preview of “Botnet” on SoundCloud a few months back: Otherwise I’m making slow but steady progress on the six “definitely” album tracks, and still trying to figure out what other tracks will be included. Right now my money is on “Naive,” “Engines,” “Popping Aspirin,” and “The Out-of-Towners.” Status Report: 2013 Album Project

I’ve done some necessary and overdue rearranging of this website’s Music page. My previous storage system for older music has been shut down (RIP MobileMe), so I’ve moved everything to SoundCloud widgets. Most older tracks are easily downloadable by selecting a song in one of the four playlists and then clicking the download button at the top of the playlist. The newest songs are still housed at the Bandcamp page. Clickity

The latest offering at the Dplex Bandcamp site is one of my oldest songs. In addition to modernizing it (the original was recorded many, many years ago on a Tascam 4-track cassette recorder) I’ve made it a touch slower and sadder. This track is a free download until I release my next song.
You can download and listen to the original version of “Rainbow” in the Music section of this site, alongside many other songs from my archive. Newer songs are available (as always) on Bandcamp and SoundCloud. To say your support is appreciated would be an understatement. |
