Ho. There's a new song up if you haven't noticed.

It's been almost a year since I polished up the tracks on 99 and posted them around and forced my friends to take burnt CD-Rs of it. I had some laughs and made some friends. It was nice to get some respect!

What have I been doing since then? Working and getting educated mostly.

Off and on, I have been developing the younger brother of 99, a second album that will be called Secret Identity. It will be better, worse, longer, shorter, purer, more convoluted and more emphatic than 99. As I write, it is reaching its final stages, with most of the songs ready to face their respective last bosses.

You can hear a beta pre-release demo of it that I made back in the summer right here.

As for the name, it's something I've been kicking around for some time. It's inspired by elements of my own weird life. It's about resolving oneself's disparate pieces as a fruitless effort because the whole will lack cohesion in any given environment. But only on an abstract level. So what this means is that you get a bunch of minor chords and arpeggios. Nyeh.

I am aiming to have this thing out by year's end with at least a baker's dozen tracks. And maybe something extra for good friends. I'm well on my way to that goal. I'm going to put some new tracks up when I feel like they're done, so get ready to try some new things.
