First Anniversary

Believe it or not but it's now been a year since I performed my first venue-based concert. The setting was London, the event was 'Music For the Third Millennium' and the memories are still vivid.



I made some new friends and contact during that weekend, it was never going to rival with anything else that I have achieved in my life or career. The church (which was the venue) certainly surprised me. I suppose churches really do offer the best sound accoustics that you'll ever experience, I guess I just wasn't ready for the awesomeness of what generated and bounced of the walls and roof.



I had a fantastic time. I have to mention the guys who made it possible, and those who just continued to show their support.

Abi
Dunkie & Sarah Walls
Ian Eary
Mirai
Michel Voorn
Mark Jenkins
Plus of course everyone who turned up to watch my performance.

Tangerine Dream Fans Zone

Show your support and download the podcast episodes. Chris Newman, the DJ of the podcasts, does an exceptional job, as he should as he loves what he does and supports Independent Electronic Music that closely relates to Tangerine Dream.

Chris recently interviewed Synth.nl who does some cool music, check him out. This Saturday (23rd August 2008,) Chris will be playing Digital Child, which is taken from the Berlin album on the brand new podcast episode.

Support him..! You won't be disappointed.

The End of FutureLive

I have come to a decision that kinda makes me feel sad but positive at the same time. Today I have decided not to progress with any 'FutureLive' programme.

FutureLive was my Internet concert project which I designed back in 2002 which catapulted my musical career into big stages. Technology has changed since it's beginning, as the first concert was broadcasted on dial-up which then progressed into low & high-tier broadband quality. Many of you know that I used FutureLive as a tool to premiere my new material completely live, while I did seriously consider premiering Berlin with this feature, I realised it would have been better and more pracitcal if my new material was being played at venues such as London and beyond.

While I definitely won't be ruling out any actual future Internet broadcast, I can still say that FutureLive has now been put to rest. I've had the most amazing 5 years with this project and gained many fans and feedback with it. I cannot thank you any more than I have.

As I always say... Up and beyond.


At some point later on in the year, I will still create a webpage with the history of FutureLive which will contain *all* of the 5 concerts you can download at your own peril, which will hopefully give you an idea of how technology and indeed my very own musical career and style has changed (hopefully for the better.)

Berlin on iTunes

I had my doubts regarding CD Baby, I don't know why but I just felt somewhat quite unsure about their company. But slap my mouth, they're brilliant. Only a few days since the Berlin CDs arrived at CD Baby HQ and already, the album is on iTunes worldwide. How about that..

So. Here it is.


(For US iTunes Customers, click Here)

Even 'Live in London' has appeared (probably around the same time as Berlin) on iTunes which I'm really pleased about. This has indeed been the quickest I've ever had albums submitted to this network. I can only say this about CD Baby, they really do keep their word and do exactly what they intend to do, which is to continue supporting Independent artists around the world at lightening speeds and at quality standards.

But as always, please continue to support me and the rest of the artists and buy our albums..!
