New uploads / Goodbye Melancholia released for sale.

I know it's been a while, but I have uploaded to Soundcloud a rough cut of a song I will likely re-record, "How to Live" and the single version of my favorite song I have recorded, "Goodbye".  I am also making Goodbye Melancholia for sale on Bandcamp for just $5. Also available: Neverending Static (which is only $2).

Goodbye Melancholia

Made some changes to the album, Goodbye, Melancholia.  These changes make it so much better!  Hopefully you can check it out!

I would like to make some music videos to put on YouTube, but, that will have to wait to a future date.  "Goodbye" would be my first choice, or (ideally) all of them.

I am looking to do some or for someone who is interested to do some new cover art.  Email me gabegott@gmail.com if you are interested.

Also, I am thinking about having a (small) listening party sometime.

It's been a while...

Thank you for all those who have been listening to my music.  I haven't recorded anything new for a while, but maybe, this weekend?  We'll see...

I am currently listening to my album, Neverending Static, of which there is a version, all songs available for free (.mp3) download if you click on my music page.

It's very...  Minimalistic, I think is a good way of describing it.

The upcoming album, Goodbye Melancholia, the current songs of which are also available for download, I think are vastly better.  In act, I would say that "Goodbye" is definitely the best song I have ever written.  I am really a big fan of everything I have recorded that I haven't released yet: a 15-minute instrumental track, "Melancholia", a real groovin' track called "American Dreamin'", and a bright and cheerful instrumental track called "Lotus Eater".

I would like to record another song or two.  We'll see what I have time to get down by the end of the summer.  That is my deadline.  Then I will listen to it a bunch, think about it a bunch, and, eventually, put out the final version.  That might be a while.

If I kind find the time when I have a more regular schedule I am thinking about finding a drummer, a bassist, and a lead guitarist to play these songs with...  Maybe.  It is kind of a fantasy at this point, but, maybe it will have to wait a year until I can get a job, after grad school.

five-star rating!

A five-star rating and a very nice comment  on the single version of "Goodbye" on my Soundclick page (see also on the music tab)!

The more listens I get (unique), the high my songs chart: "Goodbye (single edit)" is #27 out of 7,630 in psychedelic rock and #443 out of 249,724 in rock.

Trying to be my highest ("Down by the River" #14 in psychedelic rock and #118 in rock).

Oh, and if you like the song (or any of my songs), it is available for free download.
