Top Selling Indie Music


      I've recently added a new page to my website called “Top Selling Indie Music”. It's a list of the best selling music by Independent Artists, plus a few editor's picks. It features various genres and has links to their music on CD Baby's website. It currently has the top 5 of each genre, and will be expanded in the future to feature the top 10 and will have more genres added to it.


      I've also added a bunch more eBooks to my website. They're currently featured on the “Ebooks” page, and are only $1.99 each. You can download classic literature in PDF or EPUB format. You will be redirected after your payment to immediately download the file, and there is a 30-day money back guarantee if you buy it directly from us. There are also links to find them on Lulu's website. 


      I would also like to inform you of a few collaboration projects I'm currently working on that will be available some time in the near future. First, I'm writing music for a computer video game for TBC Productions. They have requested the music to be written in the style of Final Fantasy, so the compositions will be for full orchestra. The title song from the project is available to listen to. It's currently on the “Free MP3” page of my website, and is called “Forgotten Lands”. The link is listed below. Second, I'm also currently working on a collaboration between ALBEDO and Lillywhite. Steven Grames has made a poetry CD and has asked me to write some background music for it. You can listen to one of them “Surrender at Sea” on his website at the link below. He has requested that the music be electronic, so I've written it in a New Age/Ambience style. Both collaborations are currently being worked on from both ends, and I will definitely let you know when they are finished. Enjoy!

Transposed Parts & Classic eBooks


      I found a nice website that sells sheet music in PDF format that you can download immediately. The website is called Load CD. I've added some transposed parts for Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker and Fourth Symphony (will come in handy if you play Bb Trumpet or Bb Clarinet and don't own one in A), some well know classical pieces in full score plus parts, and sheet music from our latest classical album “Digital Fingers” for Symphony, Concert Band, String Orchestra, String Quintet, and Woodwind Quintet.


      Lately, I've been working on something a little different. I don't always contain myself to just music and sometimes branch out to different forms of media like books or videos. So, I've been formatting and creating eBooks of classic literature. They're available on our website and on a website called Lulu in PDF and EPUB format for immediate download. They're only $1.99 and more will be coming soon. If you have any special requests that you would like me to do, please let me know. Eventually, I would also like to make some audio book versions for CD and mp3 download. I'll keep you updated on that project when it gets closer to completion.


      I'm also working on a special “How To” book for those of you who are musicians out there. It'll explain how to record your music, how to get it online, plus more. More details will be coming soon about that, and I'll keep you posted about it. In the meantime, you'll just to have to wait with baited breath, and try to enjoy yourselves while you're at it. Talk to you later!
