Music News

It's been busy since my return from London and the news has piled up. There are photos from London that are still waiting patiently to be posted, new electronica works in progress, plans for Web site development, and new developments in my recording studio - but the big news is CDs:

PIANO: The October 10th 2004 performance "A Chime in the Woods" is finally available on CD! I just received them last week and they look and sound great. I have copies for everyone who was at the performance, and plenty more; I've printed the "limited" version of 100 copies. For those of you who want copies, let me know, or you can get them online at CD Baby.

PIANO: Also available now at CD Baby is my 1997 album "bonjour tristesse." How fun! I recorded it at Bear Creek Studios on a remarkable piano - if you want to hear what I sounded like before I began playing regularly for ballet classes at Pacific Northwest Ballet, here's your chance. I still hear from people that they play it all the time - deep thanks for those who have encouraged me!

ELECTRONICA: There is (at the time of this writing) one copy of Invasion Warning left. Anywhere. It's sitting at CD Baby, and it's the last of the limited 100. Chris Ballew (Presidents of the United States of America) and I still plan to master IW together soon, and then it will be available again in unlimited (whatever that means).

OTHER NEWS:
- New camera, new photos coming soon
- Digital distribution! You can download tracks of my music from nearly any music download site now (except for IW, which won't be available until the final master is completed)
- Web site refresh - plans are under way to transform www.festeproductions.com - more news as the schedule comes together
- Mailing list is now over 150 people and growing - what a great group of people!
