Here is the new Christmas track featuring Jana Thompson. Thanks  (of course) to Israel for all his hard work and string/harmony assistance. Christmas is a very important time of the year for me, and the lyrics to this song (which I wrote in Latin) are reflective of my personal convictions.

VENI REDEMPTOR, SOLAMEN GENTIUM

Lyrics:

VERSE 1

Veni, Redemptor omnium gentium / Come Redeemer of all Nations
Veni, Creator omnium divum / Come Creator of sky
Letare, Gloria / Rejoice, Glory
Christus natus est nobis / Christ is born unto us
De virgine Maria / Of the virgin Mary
Alleluia / Hallelujah

---------
VERSE 2

Veni, Redemptor solamen gentium / Come Redeemer, Comfort of all Nations
Veni, Creator omnium mare / Come Creator of sea

Laudamus Dominum / We praise the Lord
Qui creavit omnia / Who created all things
Summi Patris gracia / By the grace of the Father Most High
Alleluia / Hallelujah

---------
BRIDGE

Salvator / Jesus, Savior
Laus Tibi / Praise to Thee
Rex pacifix / King of Peace
Gaudete! / Rejoice!

Amo et / Love and
Pax ín tellús / Peace on earth
Gaudeamus, hodie / Let us rejoice today

---------
VERSE 3

Veni, Redemptor conditor siderum / Come Redeemer, Founder of the Stars
Veni, Creator salvator mundi / Come Creator, Savior of the World

Laudamus Dominum / We praise the Lord
Spes eterne glorie / Hope of eternal glory
Omnes gentes plaudite / All ye nations, rejoice
Alleluia / Hallelujah

Hello everyone-
Hope the Christmas holiday season is treating you well.

As a big THANKS to all of you, I will be making a brand new original Christmas song (VENI REDEMPTOR, SOLAMEN GENTIUM) available for free download this Wednesday evening. The song features Latin text and is reminiscent of early modern-period hymns. The singer is Jana Thompson, a good friend who has a fantastic opera voice. I hope you will all enjoy it.

I will also make last year's O Come O Come Emmanuel available.
Both songs will be downloadable until January 1 2010.

Howdy folks-

After I finish the BLUE STONE remix of "Bridges" this coming week, I am working on finishing a new Christmas track. If I can get it done in time, I will put it up for free download.

A very good friend of mine, Janna Thompson is an amazing opera singer, and I've had this very sweeping, hymn-like piece in my head...so fingers crossed, it will be finished in time for the winter holidays!

Hello everyone-
I have just uploaded two of the new WORLD GONE CRAZY remixes that will be on the second volume of remixes. We are expecting an early December availability on I-tunes, Amazon, etc.

The first new mix is by DJ MIKELD and is really amazing. He really brought out my original piano line (which is in the album version, but is quite buried).

The second new mix is the Sandro Peres radio edit, which is exuberant and perfect for the dance floor. I will leave the mixes up for a week and then post some of the other new ones.

Hope you enjoy!

While filming the video for REASON WHY, we decided to record an impromptu of SKIMMING STONES on piano. Hope you like it!

In December or early January, Nettwerk Records is planning to release my little"box" on iTunes & in physical form across the pond (possibly Stateside as well - we'll see).

I am very happy to announce that my first co-signed act, boywonderbread, has released his first single, COMES AND GOES from his forthcoming album. The single includes the track COMES AND GOES, a non-album track called YOU THOUGHT I'D NEVER NOTICE. Also, Israel did a remix of COMES AND GOES for the single as well. You can get it on I-tunes or here:

Amazon

The entire album is available for pre-order and will be released on November 20.

boywonderbread is Ken Harrison and also features Brian Minato and Ashwin Sood who are both in Sarah McLachlan's band. If you like The Shins or Death Cab, I think you'll enjoy this album.

Spread the word!!!
