Ok, this is, I believe, the third time I have come back to the blog after a long hiatus here or there. I've been working at home and practicing while my wife is in graduate school. She's probably going to get a thousand Master's degrees, but I've started taking control of my career. The blog is going to become a place to promote my music (which I am in the middle of recording.) I hope to have six albums out before the summer. All of them are nice and smooth easy listening tracks I'm recording as A Man Of Few Words.
I'm also going to start a video series on YouTube for band excerpts on bass clarinet, on for basic pedagogy and another series of background tracks that you can listen to while you are working. I'm going to actually leave the blog up on my computer this time, and I will actually *gasp* reply to comments. I read a few lovely comments that I had never seen before because I just wasn't looking after the blog at all.
So, I'm back, but this is my career, and I hope to do it full-time from now. When I get my first two albums done, I hope to have them on Spotify, iTunes, Pandora and the Google Play Store. So, you'll be able to enjoy my stuff wherever you are. More updates to come when new videos or tracks are out there. However, I can't do any of that if I keep yapping on here. Did you know how much goes into getting your music on iTunes, etc? Sheesh! I have to get to work finishing this music, working with an aggregator and get my stuff out there.
That's it for today, hopefully more good news is to come!
