No artwork yet.... kind of thinking about it.
I thought this would be more of a concept album like the first one, but it's a little
more abstract than that.

You could definitely release the new stuff as an album. Just think up a cool name for it.

If you need a hand with the art, Z, just yell

I will Steve! Thanks for the offer.

I'm kind of thinking of a possibility, so maybe I'll shoot you a badly-drawn sketch of an idea
in a few days....

Ha Ha If it weren't for the wonders of modern technology I'd draw badly too!! LOL
"Bending Light" is giving me good vibes if you get stuck for ideas

Just sent it again for you

Got it! Looks terrific!
Not sure what would look better.
Maybe the black hole a bit bigger and the ship a bit smaller?
and maybe just have the back of the ship glowing like an ion drive (blue/white or yellow/white?), instead of having the nozzles?
I like the color of the ship, but maybe make it a little bit darker blue?

I love it already!

I would just use your judgement and change whatever sounds right to you.
It's damn close already!

Thanks!

Just sent you an e-mail before I read this. You answered all my questions i think

Working on artwork.. Very cool.

Great Z...

I was looking at my folders last night..I have enuff for one, but im gona wait till i do a few more to have more to pick from and see where im headed with the tunes.

Have a few instermentals, and think ill do a few more. Might put like 3 on the Album, and the rest vocal and a mantra or two.

I have some ideas for artwork im working on now.

You will need to Master all of these for me before putting them up.

Or i might start freash????? Up in the air right now on it.

No problem on the mastering. Anytime.
I like the idea of having the 3 instrumentals with mantras and such.
If you pick the order of the songs right, it should hold together as a theme.

This one, for me, is a much looser concept than Robots.
The songs do tie together in a different way, and about the time the listener starts
to understand where it's going RUN WITH ME pounds them between the eyes.... LOL

I'm not changing a note of guitar. It's more like making sure the beginning and ending
of each song is right, and a few tweaks on vocals. There is a bug in logic where if I
am playing a song, then hit stop, then immediately mixdown, I sometimes get some
of the echo from when it was playing at the beginning of the mixdown. hard to explain,
but there are a few songs where it happened.
