For the past few months I've been gathering and updating pieces I've composed over the past few years. I've been working on brand new pieces as well, and I am pleased to announce I have finished the initial composition process for my next classical album. At this point I'll begin practicing and editing the works as I prepare to record the material. I don't have a release date planned, but I'm aiming for sometime in 2010. I've also begun planning the next Protest of Reality album, but I won't provide any details on that for awhile.

The hard copy CD form of Acquired Taste is available at Amazon.com! The cost is $12.99 plus shipping and handling, though if you make a total purchase of $25 or over at Amazon you can select free shipping. I expect to have the CD available at a second online retailer in the coming weeks.
UPDATES:
For the moment, the video to Little Blue Pill is on hold. I am not sure if I will try to complete the project at a later time or not.
The alternate cover to Acquired Taste is now the official cover. While some CD copies including the original cover may be floating around, these will be very difficult to come by.
I have already begun preliminary work on my next piano album. As of today, a four-movement work is mostly complete. A sonata, five-movement work, another four-movement work, and some shorter miscellaneous pieces should be finished in the coming months. After the composition process is complete I'll be practicing everything and preparing for the recording process. I intend to play the pieces as I did with Lost for a more live feel rather than use electronic computer-based sounds and processing as I did with The Reign.

Acquired Taste is now available for purchase! Amazon.com currently has the digital MP3 format available for $7.99. If you so desire, you can also purchase each track individually at 89 cents a piece as well (though this route would be pricier). The physical CD format will be available by the end of November.
