Continuing my attempts to make money out of the skills I have, I have signed up to bandcamp, a website that I know a few of my friends or acquaintances use to distribute their music.
So far I only have two tracks available, which are: Softly - an acoustic guitar improvisation based on a backing riff that I had developed a while back. And Cyborg Dawn, which I can't figure out how to classify (suggestions welcome in comments). Again, I developed a riff - and then a second riff to go with the first one, and added layers until I felt it was full. I did not know my voice could reach those high notes in there. I think it falls somewhere between chill-out, metal, classical and folk music. The feel of Cyborg Dawn reminded me of my Cyborg Sleeps story, particularly the intro, which is more like a poem than a story anyway. However, because the music is very different from the character of Asira, I didn't want to link the two explicitly by naming the track after the story, so I called it "Dawn" instead of "Sleeps".
You can download the tracks and artwork I made for them at Snowdrop Explosion on bandcamp. Both these tracks are available for free, but if you like them enough to pay for them I could really (really really) use the cash right now!
I intend to add the filk album still advertised in the sidebar here (with download I can make it cheaper, too) and also see if I can put together an EP or album of some of my other stuff (including one or two of the BDSM songs I've written). But the latter may take a while (I haven't even recorded all the tracks yet!)

This blog is intended to be a place where I can develop my thoughts freely and get free and honest responses. Essentially, it is my safe space, and for that reason I have elected to maintain this blog as a moderated space. However, I am opposed in general to censorship and believe that usually the best way to kill a bad idea is with a better one, so very few comments will be rejected. Comments designed to cause offence for the sake of it (e.g. abusive or inflammatory remarks with no other content), or else those that I feel cross a boundary of human decency, are most likely to be rejected.
