Free song!
My free stuff page was looking a little empty, so I decided to add something. You are now able to download a free Mp3 of “Edge” (the entire song)!
This is my way of saying thanks to everyone who has listened to my music, and I may be releasing more free songs in the future.
Of course, if you enjoy the song, please recommend it to your friends! It would help me out tremendously. Also, a higher quality version of the mp3 is available from the order page on my site for just a dollar.
Enjoy!

CDs have arrived!
Just a very quick update:
My CDs arrived on September 1st, as scheduled. They look great, and I am very excited to begin selling them! If you enjoy my music, please consider buying a copy at my order page.
A lot of people have asked me if my music is on iTunes or Amazon. Unfortunately, my songs are not yet listed on those sites. However, I am working on getting my music into those stores as soon as possible.

CDs have shipped
Well, I just got word from my manufacturer that the 100 CDs I ordered have shipped! They should be arriving on Wednesday, and I can’t wait to get my hands on them.
I’ve also bought some corrugated CD shipping boxes to ensure that anyone who orders online will receive their CD in good condition.
Other random updates:
-Added an option on the order page to buy all of the album’s mp3s in one click.
-Created a new image for the homepage. Mostly to help emphasize the release of my album.
-Credit cards are now accepted as a payment method. Previously, I had only the ability to accept paypal payments.
That’s about it for now. Stay tuned for more news.

Final Horizon: My debut album!
So, after a two-year-long journey with music, I have finally completed my first album! Honestly, I’m amazed at how far I’ve come in such a short amount of time.
There are 12 songs featured on this album: Dawn, Edge, Skyline, Forsaken, Breathe, Starlight Grace, Midnight, Everscape, When the Fighting Stops, Salvation Forest, Life, Seven Years to Come.
And here is a sample of the album art:

Now that the album is done, I will mostly be focused on the marketing aspect of my music for a while. Of course, I’ll still be working on new songs, but that will be a lesser priority while I promote the album release.
If you enjoy my music, please seriously consider buying a copy of the album. It’s my first business endeavor as a musician, and I’ve put some serious time/effort/money into getting to this point.
Thanks to everyone who has been keeping up with my updates. Your support is greatly appreciated.

When the Fighting Stops
Wow… Haha. I’m happy to announce that this is my LAST MAJOR PROJECT for the album!!!! I am now pretty much done with all mixing/remastering!!! I just have to go over my current songs one last time, record some piano playing of my friend Daniel Brottman, and then viola! CD-ready audio!!!
Of course, I still need to design all the album art… haha…
Anyway, some info about the song… this is one of my older songs. I originally wrote it for a Newgrounds audio competition. For the current version, I’ve completely reshaped the sound… it’s quite amazing what you can do without really changing any notes… just working with levels, panning, etc.
Hope you enjoy it. The song is my tribute to pacifism. I intended to paint a picture about war and how “When the Fighting Stops” nothing is left…
