Tales of Zale Episode 1 hits 100k views on YouTube, another track to share from World Beyond + some more BTTB updates!

Hi everyone and hope you're having a great week so far. It's been another busy one here at JabunAudio mainly working on the final mix tweaks on the upcoming Better Than The Book - Hopes and Dreams album, but before we get into that, there's some big celebrations and more videos to share so let's get straight into it!

Firstly this week, it's time for a big celebration! As I'm sure you all know by now, when I'm not making music I'm often assisting super talented animators around the world by doing the audio post-production for their projects, and one of these such people is Sif Perlt Savery AKA Hikarian Animations. We've been working together since 2014, and my first project with her "Tales of Zale Episode 1" just hit an incredible 100,000 views on YouTube! A huge congrats to Sif and the team and if you like what you see, you can support Tales of Zale on Sif's Patreon page here:

Check out the celebrated 6 figure video below, and if you enjoy it, go watch the rest of the Tales of Zale series (most of which I'm heavily involved in) on Sif's YouTube channel. Episode 3 I'm told is in the works so be on the lookout for that in the hopefully not to distant future.

Next this week I have another track / visualiser to share from the recent World Beyond "Nobody Asked For This So I Did It" album, and this time it's the motivational alternative metal track "Because We Can"! Once again I'm on lead guitar and bass for this one, and I hope you enjoy the visualiser music video that Vlad put together. Not many of these left I think, but I'm looking forward to the grand finale soon! Be sure to subscribe to the World Beyond YouTube channel to be first to see it, and enjoy "Because We Can" below!

Finally this week, just another couple of updates on the Better Than The Book - Hopes and Dreams album. As I mentioned before, it's been a busy week going through and doing the final polishing for the mixes prior to mastering, and as of yesterday 6/10 mixes are sitting in the mastering session waiting to be trimmed and exported with a final layer of polish! I'm just about on schedule to finish the final mixing tweaks by the end of the month, though due to the various trips away, I think I'm about a week behind where I'd currently like to me. I'll be working hard to get back on track, and aim to have all the mixes done by the next blog post, ready for mastering in the first week of March. Sounds just about doable, but I'll take the time needed to get it sounding the best it can be. More updates as and when I have them, but it's nearly there!

And that about wraps things up for this week. I'll actually be away again for some of next week, but I'll be working on finishing up these BTTB mixes in all the time I have available in the studio! I'm sure there'll be more stuff to share in the next blog post, and until then, thanks as always for supporting JabunAudio, and my various projects, and I hope you have a great weekend and beyond whatever you're up to. See you in the next one, and take care!
