Long Hot Summer (I Hope)

First day of the summer holidays today and for someone with a lazy summer ahead of them I am a bit down, cant put my finger on it but I suspect it was the fact I didn’t get as much of my course work done as I had planned before the break. Some serious cramming due in Sept, me thinks. Today threw a few nice surprises my way Grey Mirrors has started to sell on CD baby which is nice. I also got a contract through for a compilation that I didn’t know I was in the running for. It is a compilation of John Foxx influenced artists including Louis Gordon! I was well chuffed to find this out. I had to email and find out what track they wanted to use as I remember sending a whole lot up when I first approached them with regards to a podcast not even knowing about the comp, smart ehh? Bit Pixel is causing a bit of a ripple too which is great as I was very unsure how this would go down. The whole synthpop scene has become very small over the years I have been working on that album. Didn’t mention it before but I also have a Glimmer Room track on the new Awakenings 2008 vol 1.5 comp, somehow managed to get on as the first track, that was a first for me :)

I have got so much stuff I want to get done this holiday to tie up a load of loose ends, like the Framework comp just one track to get in on that. The Glimmer Room album I have got to crack the whip now as I would like to release it the day we play at the Awakenings gig. There is the Awakenings gig stuff for me to finish and hopefully some projections for behind the stage as well. I have also got to redo our key-worker system for work so it is in line with the new E.Y.F.S framework, that might be a bit of a brain-ache but at least I will understand it a lot more having done it myself, maybe.

I have been nibbling away at this blog for over six months now, not as many entries I had first thought but a few a month keeps it going.
