one of my dreams is to one day write a song that is worthy of having you play on it.

pffffffffffffttt. you have written plenty of worthy songs already!! don't mistake lack of recording budget for lack of cello-worthiness.

listening through now...excellent stuff!

awesome, thanks! i'll send out another update when alex has the album available for purchase. i think he's eyeing flash drives...

i tend to avoid physical distribution whenever possible -- it's just not necessary anymore...but with whatever he does, i hope it does well.

he should eye bandcamp.mu, btw...i have some clients up there and LOVE IT.

good call, i was checking out bandcamp the other day and was super-impressed. time to add it to my roster of sites... i wish there were a way to automatically redirect people from the lame (but necessary) band places to the better (but lesser known) ones..
