mmd_as on Bandcamp

mmd — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 00:40:37 +0000

Woohoo! Another album added to the super slick system that is Bandcamp. This time it’s the mmd_as album that Alex Strain and I finished early 2009.

You can stream the tracks for free, or if you’d like a higher quality download there is a payment system set up. Enjoy, and please share it with the world!

mmd_as – web2 spots and FLACs

mmd — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 04:06:58 +0000

The new mmd_as album has made its way around the wide world of web 2.0 and made its sounds available for free where it went. Probably only two places of note are mmd_as – last.fm and here on the Renoise Forum where some people have given comment. Everything else out there is either too minor or so messy that it’s un-presentable. However, if any discussion of note appears I shall share it here. If I were more the virtual-social-butterfly my reach may have generated more of an impact, but no use in pretending to be something I’m not. One place that I’ll be endeavouring to polish up for networking purposes is a new Facebook Page that at the moment just barely features the mmd_as material.

The good news is that I’ve added the new album to the mmd shop, available as a high quality FLAC download for a realistic $10AUD via paypal. Again, we wish that this could be a physical copy of a CD with cool artwork and such, but for now a FLAC version will have to do. Think of your purchase as a ‘show of support’ as any donations are halved between Alex and I. I don’t expect a heap of interested (my last album only sold about 5-6 copies), but we’ll put the option there for you just in case.

And of course, any comments and reactions from yourselves to the album would be most welcome to us. Please lets us know what you think of what we have done!

I would like to take this opportunity to publicly thank Alex Strain for all his hard work and tolerance in collaborating with me to make this music happen. None of this was actually planned to happen the way it has from the outset, we kind of accidentally started making songs together and rest evolved from there. It has been exciting in the sense that with Alex I both connect with his creativity as well as juxtapose it with opposite directions and approaches. Some very unique compositional challenges arose because of this, and it was a lot of fun to work things out with Alex so that we were both happy with what you hear.

It’s almost a little sad to be calling it a day once the work is over, but time to finish other things! Alex and I may return to fun and games down the track, but for now enjoy the best of what we’ve done so far.

Stay tuned for updates on various promoting of the project around the web 2.0 world, as well as information on how you can purchase a FLAC version of the album.
