New Albums…The Early Experiments and Sahara

June 1st, 2009

I’m Planning to release two digital albums this year:

The First has been compiled already and is entitled “The Early Experiments” 1990-2000 and it contains what I hope are some of the best Electronica instrumental tracks I’d  written and co-written over that decade(1990-2000) all of which , with the exception of one, have never been released commercially.

 

The Second album will be entitled “Sahara” and contains a collection of new and old tracks some of which have appeared in compilation albums , but have not been released separately or as part of an existing AL-PHA-X album.

All will be available by the Summer 2009.

Hello Everybody From AL-PHA-X “What’s Going On”.

June 1st, 2009

A lot has happened both personally and professionally since the release of “Slow Down” so I’m  going to provide you with a breakdown of events past , present and future.

Slow Down has been well received and has had some great reviews , but just as things were gaining momentum a massive blip occurred which was the fall of the great distributor “Pinnacle”. Why did this affect “Slow Down” ? It was the distributor my record company used both for physical (CDS) and digital downloads.

So effectively the record was made unavailable for quite a long period of time in either format (CD or Downloads) , but the good news is all is well again and it is available once more.
