Hello Again!
This is my first update in awhile, I have been busy trying to get things sorted out on the site and on the music front which i will try and update you on now.
New Library and Shop
As you may have noticed the site is undergoing some changes (as per usual i guess). I am currently trying to integrate a new nifty way for everyone to listen to my music and also for the first time have a chance to download each track as they wish for a small price (50c/85c). The music will always be available to be listened to on the site free of charge, but what this does is get of all the requirements of space/bandwidth etc etc that has stopped me expanding in this way before and for the first time give you a reliable and definitive library of my music.
Most importantly it allows you guys to have the chance to download those tracks that you like and avoid the ones you dont like, while also getting them in super high quality in whichever format you want. All tracks also come with full ID and Album art and should integrate perfectly into your iTunes or Media Player - whathaveyou.
You may also if you wish download full albums for a low price if you wish and all the same cool features apply!
I am now able to provide you guys with a good library of my music free to listen over the internet and download if you hear anything nice. To start off i have only Vol.1 of 2009 available to listen in this new format which features 10 songs and one bonus song if you download the album. I will try and get the other volumes up on the site ASAP - in the mean time the
"digital store" will remain on the website for you to purchase music on until the transfer over to the new format is complete.
You can access the new library/shop by either clicking on the links at
www.intheblackbox.eu
or by visiting
www.music.intheblackbox.eu
Rest assured all new music will be made available to listen on the website as per usual however only in time will they be available to be downloaded.
(maybe a bit faster if you ask nicely)
AUGUST - UNDER
This month has been dubbed "Under" and got off to a bit of a slow start. At the moment on the site (
www.intheblackbox.eu) you can have a listen to two new tracks:
Deliver
Dig Dig Dig/Paper Notes
There are two other tracks near to being complete and a third fresh in the mind so maybe that will get finished before the end of the month.
The site design has also been accompanied by a new visual addition in the form of a short video to accompany the music of "Deliver" and that can be viewed in the "Visual" section of the main page (
www.intheblackbox.eu)
JULY
To round up last month, which was a big one, i would like to thank everyone who attended my performances in Dublin and who made lots of noise/got their groove on when the chance came about. July was a big month also in the development of my musical production with the addition of a new set up and a more complex sound... i hope to develop this a bit more and get it right for more gigs in september and October.
BLACK BOX on Rowla.Music
I am continuing to release a weekly podcast radio show on Rowla Music (
www.music.rowla.com) which is usualy available on Monday nights (or later in the week if i am busy).
Thanks again to everyone who has shown support over the last few months, everything has really taken a huge step forward recently and i hope to keep the momentum going all the way up until the new year.
Keep your eyes peeled for new updates all the time at the various sites that i have:
