#lunacyalbum

[closetjudas]

today marks two years since the release of "lunacy + the second naïveté" (which was my last full-length album). i was considering putting out a re-mastered version of the #lunacyalbum - integrating the corresponding explanations for each track, as i did with #nonsequitur - but i've been too busy researching for my next project "subaltern" (which i'm really excited about). what's more, i'm actually extremely happy with the original version "lunacy" + consider it one of the best things i've ever created. SO - if you haven't listened yet, download/stream it for free (i.e. i don't want your money...you can't even "name your price" if you wanted) via bandcamp. and if you're interested in seeing behind the curtain of any of those songs, follow the biolink to the "fringe faithful collective podcast" (where you'll find an unboxing of each track). https://www.instagram.com/p/CUKdmZ3Akx-/?utm_medium=tumblr

for anyone interested in knowing what i'm going to be releasing in less than a month's time, it's a project called #nonsequitur - the music of which i completed earlier this evening. in addition to the four songs, over the next few weeks i'll be working on companion recordings for each track that will be released as audio appendices on this ep (i.e. similar to what i did with the #lunacyalbum, but this time, included as tracks on the album itself instead of via a separate podcast). as always, all will be downloadable for free at bandcamp (where you'll also be able to find lyrics, art + the written version of each spoken-word essay). 11.05.20 https://www.instagram.com/p/CGByeRplgQk/?igshid=qhie7by0fbqo

shout-out to @winnipegstreams.fm. can confirm that they're spinning tracks from "lunacy + the second naïveté." at noon today, they played "leaving, presently." check out the newest station broadcasting music created right here from the centre of canada. #winnipegstreams #winnipegmusic #winnipegradio #winnipeg #manitoba #manitobamusic #canadianmusic #closetjudas #lunacyalbum (at Winnipeg, Manitoba) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB6FRnJn_7l/?igshid=i4cjc8v3isgc

in one month's time, a track from "lunacy + the second naïveté" will be broadcast on power 97 (which is the only radio station i've listened to over the past three years since moving out here to the centre of canada). this is truly an honour for me + i am greatly appreciative that they will be featuring one of my songs. i'll post more details about the "mandatory manitoba" airplay + interview at a later date. and thanks once again to anyone who has already taken the time to download or stream the #lunacyalbum + who has read/listened to the article/episodes. cheers. https://www.instagram.com/p/CBpP5vUlmAw/?igshid=1iiiem0bwd7qz

cheers to those who have joined me in the red room these past five weeks for the #redroomres sessions. we're down to the final four livestreams, which will bring the #lunacyalbum project to its end. saturday, may 9th, 16th, 23rd + 30th at 9pm central.

for the months of april + may - starting this saturday night at 9pm central time - i will be livestreaming some music via instagram. three songs per show: one from the #lunacyalbum, another original of mine + a cover of an artist whose sounds i appreciate. likely a selection from "getting high: a savage journey to the heart of the dream of flight" by @kesterbrewin as well. #closetjudas #redroomres #manitobamusic (at Centre Of Canada) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-VxmAYpbfz/?igshid=1wpkx3mrg2e6v

the #lunacyalbum project is officially complete. i am truly grateful to anyone who has listened to "lunacy + the second naïveté" + even more so to those who have engaged with its existential reflections (which would in essence be equivalent to reading my diary). if you've listened to every episode from season two of the ffc, that's the last 13 years of my life in 1 hour, 50 minutes + 26 seconds. and if you want a physical copy of the album + article/episodes, let me know + "lunacy" is yours free of charge. i'll even send/give the original copies of each "æ" to the first person who can name the theme song for the "fringe faithful collective" podcast. cheers. https://www.instagram.com/p/B8zATEuAX4u/?igshid=xchjog24dxa7

it's finished. "tributary" is the last track on the #lunacyalbum + this is the final episode of "the fringe faithful collective" (season two). read it on wordpress + listen via anchor (or wherever you access ipod broadcasts): follow my biolinks. thank you for reading/listening...it means more to me than you might think. https://www.instagram.com/p/B8y6H7jJCe8/?igshid=y50t3yz5fp9b

track 7 of 9 from "lunacy + the second naïveté": an explanation. it's a song that starts with one meaning, but the twist ending - explained in the article/episode - causes one to completely reinterpret the lyrics. in other words, the song can only be understood fully if you hear it twice. read on wordpress. listen on anchor + soundcloud. #lunacyalbum #insolent #fringefaithful https://www.instagram.com/p/B7ejy89g9Bo/?igshid=chmnytjas915
