You know what? Screw it.

See, I’d been keeping some tracks streaming-only, keeping them in reserve against the time when I might complete a new full-length CD. “If I make them all available for free,” I reasoned, “why would anyone buy the CD?”

After a great deal of thought (and even more procrastination), however, a number of things have occurred to me:

1. That CD ain’t gonna be completed anytime soon. (Especially since I’ve lost the original files and hence don’t even have CD-quality mixes anymore.)

2. The availablilty of the tracks for free will not necessarily preclude my making money off of them in the future.

3. It’s more important to me that the music gets out there than that I make money from it.

4. Fuck it.

So go — download, share, enjoy. Tell your friends to come visit. Make mixes. Burn CDs. Spread the love I have for each and every one of you unto the wide, wonderful world. If you want to drop a buck or two into the tip jar, I sure would appreciate it. But it’s more important that you enjoy — and share.
