A preview of the CD: Nemicorn

A peek, I seek, a peek to share with you, of the cover of one of my upcoming CDs, the chaotic but very satisfying, creatively, Nemicorn.

I am right now working absurd hours to finalize the tracks and the edits...but I can tell you that several works are in it, including:

*Strange, but Beautiful (The Faerie):
My God, every time I listen to this piece I am blown away. I have had to fight the temptation to rename the CD for this work.

*Theocricide:
We had so much fun putting this piece together, a patchwork of musical styles.

*Thunder Out of Valhalla:
How could I resist this driving, driven show stopper? We cranked it up and the drums took over.

*Right Set of Lips:
This introspective, blues-tinged work is so minimalist it is seductive. And so very true.

*The Nosferatu's Quandry:
The words and thoughts are mind, but I have to admit a major influence from Prince in the music. I was very pleased with the result.

*Falling and Fallen Angels:
Another emotional patchwork, musically, but a powerful call to rise from the ashes. An anthem to madness.

*Brisant Revelations:
A bit of a musical tip of the hat to 60's keyboard-driven rock. Includes some of the most curious vocal stylings I've ever summoned. I wonder what I was doing? I almost don't recognize my voice.

*Joining the Machine:
Techno fury. A brutal piece of defiance and madness.

*Texture of Your Tongue:
Shall we be a bit erotic to a synthesizer and bongo tapestry? Why not?

*Love Gods (Multivox):
I hear something new everytime I listen to this damn thing. A psychiatric litmus test dwelling on the essence of the romantic.

These are not all the tracks, just the definite inclusions. The rest will be apparent soon enough. I am so tired. Gratified at the beauty of my daughter's wedding and the realization she has a life that fulfills her. In the end, this was one of the most important purposes I could work towards in this life.

Another piece of the sabot falls away and, in time, I will be left to myself, with no purpose but my own momentum.

"Strange but beautiful" does this to me every time I listen to it, strips me to the raw ends of my nerves. Now that is art.
