'Project_ X' online

9 MAY 2009:
'Project_X', my latest album has just gone online as a free download.
Split into 4 parts, it runs at just over 30 minutes, taking in all styles of music. Dub, Ambient electronica, Rock, Pop and Ballroom are mixed with instrumental soundscapes; artists from all over the world have contributed spoken word, lead vocals, arrangements, live drums, guitars, you name it. We even managed to pull off a 13 strong choir on part one!
It's FREE at www.nickhopkin.com to download where you can stream the audio and read about 'Project_X' in more detail.

Thanks.

Project_X Update

Well, all files are back from contributors all over the world; they range from people with commercial studios, to people who've aired their lungs into dictaphones, laptops and mp3 players. And it's all sounding fantastic.

I just have to edit a few bits of audio and place them, and then I'm at mixing stage. The website is half done and I've signed up with various networking sites. So come join me at Reverbnation, iSound, LastFm, Unsigned, Myspace, Virb, Purevolume and Facebook, and keep checking www.nickhopkin.com for news!

Learning to Live.

I feel Alive. For the first time in a long time, I'm feeling peace within. I don't particularly enjoy getting up in the morning, but once up I love the sound of the birds, the warmth of the Spring sun. I'm enjoying where We live, in fact, I love it. I'm expressing myself creatively, and enjoying home life.

Project_X is still a labour of love. Contributions are starting to come back, and other files are being sent out for collaboration. Just part 4 to write and record, then the basic structure will be all complete. Just all files to edit, then a mix...!

I predict it'll be ready for the summer, by the time all the artwork and the website is done. But it ain't half exciting!

Learning to live again.
