Something Beautiful In It


If You've Been Paying Close Attention, you've noticed that in addition to taking photographs of men, musicians and merchandise, I've also been making music [what some would call faking music because I make it from samples of real instruments however, the melodies are mine] at the same time. In the last five years, I've managed to create eight collections of tunes. In this vast punchbowl of sound float some of the usual suspects: the ice cubes... the citrus pulp... the fruit slices..... and a few mint leaves but, what you can't see, is how it tastes. And therein lies the basis for this most recent collection: "Something Beautiful In It" a collection of some of the standout tracks from over the years. The preliminary tasks completed, the only thing left is to do is go live... which should be happening in about a month. iTunes. U.S., U.K./Europe, and Japan for a start, and then later in other stores with physical distribution to follow.
