My old Macbook Pro is going to the Apple shop this week, so hopefully it won’t take too long to get fixed up. Once it’s back, I’ll finish up the mastering for the Mobile EP and get it uploaded to Bandcamp.
Alan Grosvenor recently moved back to Portland, and we started up a new project together. It’s been great playing with him. Feels just like the old days. So far, a couple songs have been written and we’re still searching for other members.
Duncan Calver and I started practicing a live set for Dunes of Bandon. We’ve still have yet to finish mixing our albums, which is something that I think about daily … trust me. Once my laptop is fixed, we’ll get some of the first tracks sorted out and will release a free EP on Bandcamp.
eleventhfloorrecords vs Jatun is happening, although not under that ghastly name. Niso and Henke hit me up a few months ago with some misfit songs to work on, and I did the same for them. I think there’s 5 or 6 songs that have been written so far. It’s been inactive for a bit due to my laptop problems, but I’ll get back to it eventually.
I’ve also been playing music with a good friend of mine, Ryan McGreer. He has an ambient project called Cloud City Cars. His debut album is up on Bandcamp for free / pay what you want, so you should go download it. The stuff we’ve recorded so far (14+ hours of material) is largely ambient. There’s no name yet, but I’m very eager to get this project playing shows and releasing material.
Lots of projects in the works for this year, let’s hope they all get off the ground.
