April 12 2018: Finishing touches
Good news! Writing, mixing and mastering is all done. That means the music is finished and ready to invade your ears. Right now I’m putting the finishing touches on the EP package and artwork and I’m planning the release schedule. Here’s a sneak peek into the final tracklist:

EP%20tracklist

Most tracks have new names because the working titles didn’t fit anymore. The Keys is now called ‘’The Spark’’, Ascension has become ‘’Fighting the Storms’’ and thanks to your votes, Wood’s final name is ‘’Abandoned Roots’’. ‘’Milky Way’’ and ‘’Anything’’ have kept their working titles. Sadly the demo Bananas didn’t make the cut, because the EP makes more sense to me without it. I’m saving it for a separate release.

An announcement will be here soon :wink:

Catched up here rn, so it’s a five songs ep? And it’s a very big step on your way, to now finally share the result of your personal artistic way. And I am so curious about how they will sound in a row and how the final mixing sounds like :star_struck:, any idea when we get it to hear? And, I am curious ( as you know me already :stuck_out_tongue:) : Do you already have a title for it?

Loving all of your enthousiasm! :grinning:

@theearlywalker yes, 5-track EP. Hearing the full thing in this final order was indeed really satisfying for me, because it finally sounds like a complete body of music. Like I mentioned, the announcement is close, so it won’t be long :grin:
I’m not giving away the EP title yet, but there is a hint on one of my other channels :stuck_out_tongue:

I was on YouTube when I received the notification. I’m excited for listening to “Reliving”. June 8 is so far away, but I don’t have another option, I will wait.

#239

Because I’ll be busy with school except the week of June 4-10 and I still got some preparation to do.

Thank you so much! I’m happy too! :smile:

Awesome, that’s subscriber’s benefits :grinning: Like I said, it’s a relatively quiet week for me, so that’s why I chose that day. Although ‘‘The Spark’’ won’t be the only track you’ll hear before the EP comes out :wink:
