At long last, the CDs for my Derivations album are on the way! CD Baby’s duplication center has finished printing them and has packed them up and labeled them for UPS Ground pickup later today. I can’t wait for them to finally get on the road!
However, CD Baby’s physical warehouse is still closed at this time. I’ve called them and asked for advice on how to get my CDs to them (when it comes to their printers and their warehouse, the artist is the go-between). They’ve advised me to go ahead and mail stock to them, but they’ve also warned me that it won’t be available for purchase at Amazon until the warehouse reopens. Digital and streaming releases will still be available on schedule on June 5th, as planned. Cross your fingers for the CD release.
To somewhat mitigate this situation, I am going to make the high-resolution 96KHz/24-bit digital files available from my Bandcamp account on June 5th as well. Click here to follow me on Bandcamp for further information when the release date approaches.
The excitement level is growing! Stay tuned!
The Derivations album cleared another major hurdle over the past couple of days when its audio passed CD Baby’s rigorous inspection process. That means the audio is now ready for release on the scheduled June 5th date on streaming and digital sales platforms, including Amazon Digital, Apple Music, iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Pandora, and many more! This also confirms the May 22nd pre-order date on iTunes.
Almost two years after the publication of my first album, Calibrations, I am now ready to announce the upcoming release of my second album, Derivations.
If you remember the game “Rise of the Triad,” you might remember one of the more popular songs from it: “Goin’ Down the Fast Way.” If so, then today is a red letter day for both of us. I’ve just released a high-quality 96KHz/24-bit remaster of the song through the Bandcamp music distribution service!
