Colby Bluth has started new artwork for TRAUN.

here is what will be an interactive map capturing all 3 albums of plot. very impressive detail rolled into one piece.

Traun Trilogy progress

just a random update. i am working on the project on a mostly daily basis in between my paid work. progress is slow/steady - tedious and at times exciting. its a mountain of compositions, at times seemingly never ending - but at one step at a time i am assuming i can complete the project.

the project will be split into 3 albums, which comprise 45 tracks, about 2+ hours of music. i just finished a piece that was rearranged as an experimental electronic piece. very weird way of working but it came out cool. bringing in some of the Tholus death metal material has been interesting as well. art concepts have also been mostly figured out, and the accompanying story is ironed. right now i am trying to fine tune the dense material, one track at a time, filling in holes, loose ends and figuring out what is being recorded by humans and what will be sampled instruments. very complicated to manage. heres my project management grid i rely on for piecing this whole thing together.

About to be partially laid off - Anyone have any gigs for me?

not much to say on this one. i work at UC Berkeley as a web developer of modest PHP sites with FileMaker and MySQL backends. Looking for som ework recording, composing or even doing some contract web work. let me know dave@notdavemurray.com
