<p>Wow, you got a full world in there! Reminds me when I came back
from the record store with Rush's "Moving Pictures" I always kept
a soft ear for prog rock ; I really like "chasing rainbows" with
the classy verse time signatures and the powerful chorus. My only
critic is about the artwork. Colors, Font, general composition and
overall appearance, let's just say like <i>nothing</i> about it.
Like, come to think of it, a lot of record artworks from my
prog-rock years ;)</p>
<p>Thank you very much for the sharing!</p>

<pre wrap="">Hi all,
Just a quick note to say my new album (Patchwork Cacophony, Five of Cups)
was released today.
Once again, almost everything was produced on Linux using Ardour and other
Open Source software (though there are very few soft synths -- it's mostly
olde fashioned drums, guitars, voices and physical keyboards).
Same as last time, if anyone mentions Ardour when buying a copy I'll
collect up £1 per sale for a donation to Ardour development. In truth with
music sales being what they are these days it's unlikely to feed a proper
developer caffeine habit for even a week, but it should be able to eclipse my
all-time revenue from Spotify ;)
The music is prog rock, with a strong emphasis on keyboards and classic-era
sort of sounds rather than more metal-influenced which is seeing a bit of
a rennaissance these days.
You can stream the whole thing for free on Bandcamp:

Thanks again to everyone in the Linux Audio world, from the ALSA and FFADO
guys, obviously Ardour, but also things like Scribus and Gimp. It constantly
amazes me how much support there is for producing a thing like this without
recourse to proprietry software. Long may it continue!
Ben
