Novachild Remixes Chrysta Bell

I’ve been a busy body lately. And loving every minute of it.

First, I released Havia, my 7th studio album, which I’m sure you’re already familiar with since it’s plastered all over the site. You can also find it on CDBaby, iTunes and Amazon (soon on Spotify and others). I should also mention that your assistance getting me rated and reviewed on iTunes/Amazon is highly favored. It only takes a few seconds!

Second, I released the short EP “Evolution of Complex Beings.” I wanted to explore my penchant for synth without the complexities of session musicians and editing.

...and the single “Semra.”

Third, I’ve started obsessing over remixes.

First up, my take on Chrysta Bell’s “The Truth Is...” originally produced by David Lynch (he also plays guitar, and I got to fiddle around with his guitar track, which was cool).



Secondly, my take on some celtic lushness by Blissphemy:



Feedback is groovy. Since I tend to give away a ton of download codes on Facebook, you might also like to join me there.

Havia - New Art

I’m in the process of getting my new music up on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon etc. Thought I’d take the opportunity to redo the album art, since I never fully intended the original to be the de facto version. Without further delay, here it is:

NEW SONG "SMART CAR"

http://novachildmusic.bandcamp.com/track/smart-car
This short and sweet song is my interpretation of driving down a moderately busy neighborhood street in a smart car.

For reals. I'm not just being pretentious. The best thing, however, is that I wrote it on the same day "Havia" was released. Inspired by a productivity buzz, three cups of special coffee, and a sudden urge to twiddle, "Smart Car" is my homage to liberation from infinite possibility.

Due to a recent computer crash, I'm having to mix on an older, slower mac. It's very different from anything on "Havia," but thus is the life of someone who can't play in the same room all day. Enjoy and share.

MORE ALBUMS AVAILABLE + SINGLE TRACKS

I've spent much of the weekend organizing and uploading my music to Bandcamp. I've also managed to restore my previously 'lost' album "INSILICO." After spending 2 years writing material and tweaking the album, I suffered a freak multiple hard drive crash that wiped all of my work, including the pre-masters AND my offline backup. Yeah, it happens apparently.

Fortunately, I tend to make discs of pre-release material for friends and occasionally stash them among my chaotic CD collection. I was able to reconstruct the album from these and a live show I managed to capture back in 2008.

Following is a list of available titles:
