This being a music site primarily, I occasionally remember I ought to post music related stuff on here. Here are some American Expatriate statistics for you:

Instrumentals Composed: 75
Songs Written (for American Expatriate): 10
Songs Written (for Untitled Free Album): 6

Obviously, some (many) of the instrumentals are crap, and the songs may be too. At least a few of them are good though. I’m looking forward to writing the last few American Expat songs in the next couple months and piecing the album together. This, even more than any of my previous work, might well be something that only appeals to me. It’s also about as cheerful as a morgue, at least lyrically, so get ready for that.

The instrumentals are more of a departure from my previous work. Think dirty live drums mixed with spacious piano chords and simple melodies and you’ll have an idea of what I’ve got on my hands here. My guess is there’s still quite a while before you can get your hands on this album (I’m guessing we won’t start recording until at least the summer), but I may record and post some demos before then. If I do, they will be shitty shitty quality, but they might be fun to listen to for some of you.

Also, keep an eye out for news regarding an album with Sarah Clark, and further collaboration with DJ HDL, who sent me something quite awesome the other day.
