Halloween Update

All the guitar demos are finished now, so next week I'll begin the official recordings for album number six. There are going to be eight songs and one instrumental; I'll post title names and such further into production once more of the lyrics start taking shape. I've also been working on another project, which I'll elaborate on when this album is closer to completion. Keeping busy!

Summer Update

Quick update since it has been a while, though there isn't much to report. I'm a third of the way through the latest guitar demos, but I'm on a break at the moment due to a heat wave here in Vancouver and my inability to function in such temperatures. All the rough drafts should be done this Fall and then I'll dive into normal production at that point. I also have some lyrics written, which is unusual for me this early in the process. The goal right now would be to have the next album done by late 2016, but 2017 is more realistic. And expect a Bloodborne song. Obviously.

Clue

I've been wanting to do a video game cover for a while now. All the usual suspects like Castlevania, Mega Man, Zelda, etc. have been done to death, so here's one you may have never heard and has been stuck in my head for over 20 years: Clue, from the SNES, somewhat in-sync with some pugs.

Website Complete

I've finished with the website, all the lyrics are up, and Nameless One has been moved to Bandcamp. So if you have never checked out album number two before, or liked it and feel inclined to donate, you can do so there from now on. It is still available for free, or you can set your own price.

I will return (eventually) with a cover song to be posted on YouTube. Good luck guessing.

Anew

Hello! I'm finally getting around to working on a new website, and will have all the links, lyrics and album details back up ASAP. I'm keeping the sequester.ca domain, but redirecting over to blogspot since I don't really need a hosting plan these days.

Thanks to everyone who supported Missing Image, as well as those who dipped into the back catalogue. I thought I'd go on a bit of a break from music, but it didn't last very long-- I've loosely arranged 11 new songs over the past couple months, have been playing around with new guitar tones, and am more or less ready to start working on some demos. I can't say when a new album will be released yet, or how many of the songs I want to immediately work with, but I may stick to shorter albums going forward so that I can continue to put out new material at a comfortable rate. This will also help keep motivation and inspiration high throughout the process.

Before any of that though, there is an instrumental cover I've been meaning to do...

Happy new year,

Ryan
