Spring cleaning, Better Than The Book streaming on YouTube (sortof), Tales of Zale and APOTHEOSIS news + More

Apologies for last week's unscheduled lack of update. This was due to spring cleaning / rearranging which took a lot longer than I thought it would... On the plus side though, everything is nice and clean now, all the junk has been sorted for selling, giving away or throwing away, and while there are a few bits of rearranging I'm still considering, I'm happy with the current results. A clean and tidy work space helps enable a more productive and creative mind... or so the theory goes! Anyways, enough of that, let's get started with the real news:

Firstly, Better Than The Book's track by track streaming of Two Years On has started on the BTTB YouTube Channel! Earlier this week though, the channel seemed to be having some technical issues, and while the videos were watchable and would appear on your subscription feeds etc..., the channel video list itself seemed to contain no videos at all (not even the old ones), which was very peculiar. I've since been in contact with YouTube tech support though and the channel seems to be all fine and dandy again. Feel free to listen to "Ignition" and "Homecoming" on YouTube (and subscribe to keep up to date), or you can head to bandcamp for the full album experience and to pick up a copy.

Next, I've been working hard on the new "Tales of Zale" animations with Hikarian this week, and now all the dialogue is cleaned up, (mostly) mixed, and ready when the time comes to be blended in with the sound effects, music and any other audio. It's all going nicely on track, and while I can't reveal anything about project release dates or anything, I can tell you that it's looking really REALLY awesome! Expect nothing less from Hikarian! I'm soo happy to be a part of it!

Next and currently on the plate for work, I've received more word about A P O T H E O S I S 's development, and the time has come to compose the music for Level 2! It's been a while but I have my briefs now and my brain and distorted bass are just about ready for action! I'll hopefully have something to show for it later on this month, but if you can't wait (or even if you can), please go and check out the free to download public demo and spread the word! It's gonna be awesome (and addictive)!

Lastly, the orchestral work I've been doing is coming to a close soon so I'll hopefully be streaming that on YouTube soon (it's just the final checks to be approved). More news on that once the project is finished, but as I mentioned before, that'll be streaming on the HurpADervish YouTube Channel when it's complete.

That's about it for this week. Next week's set to be a continuation of all of the above in some way, but almost certainly focusing on the A P O T H E O S I S Level 2 music. Not sure if I'll have anything to show you by the next update, but it certainly shan't be too long. For now, though, that's me signing off for this week, so many thanks for reading and supporting JabunAudio and I'll be back next weekend for another update. Take care!
