respect i've got an exciting project for 2010 which will result in you, my lovely friends, getting a whole heap of free music! |
the rationale:
i
often play the odd cover at gigs and, in response to lots of requests, i've
decided to record some of them and give them away. i noticed that several of
the songs i've covered over the years have been from the 1980s (something to
do with my age, perhaps?), so i decided to turn it into a bit of a concept.
each one will be a cover of a song from the 1980s which has a special significance
for me, so it will be quite a personal selection. some of them will be recognisable,
some less so, but they'll all be pure 'fox'.
how
it works:
throughout 2010, i will be releasing one
new song a month. each song will be available to download for
free during that month (with artwork you can stick in itunes or print
out). after that, you will still be able to listen, but not download it, and
the next song will be available to download. at the end of the year, i plan
to release them all as a limited edition album, with some extra songs on it
as a thank you.
