Greetings lovelies,

We’ve been locked in the studio working devilishly hard on a pair of digital EP releases for this summer. The sound of these EPs explore a territory that was only hinted at subtly on ALL I EVER WANTED, and it’s something we’re quite excited to share with you. Additional vocals on these EPs will be provided by Leia Manuel of the Charlottesville, VA indie band Tragic Chemistry.

Unfortunately about halfway through tracking the vocals for the first EP, I was diagnosed with an infection in my lingual tonsils that left me unable to speak, let alone sing. Recovery is progressing, albeit slowly, but in the meantime production had to be put on hold. I decided to spend the downtime polishing off some remixes from ALL I EVER WANTED. Inspiration struck, and before I knew it there were a stack that I felt good about releasing. The result is the coming EP we’ve decided to call 434.

The tentative track list for this release is:
1. All I Ever Wanted (Gothic Version)
2. This Mistake (Frozen)
3. Temptation Floor (Tempted)
4. Turn
5. Lack Of Sleep

…

In sad news, the Virginia gothic/industrial music scene lost one of it’s brightest lights last Thursday with the passing of Bryce Liddle, bassist for the band Freak Flag and also known to many in local dance clubs as DJ Belway. Charlottesville’s goth night Umlaut put together an event on April 26th, both to celebrate his memory and to raise funds to offset the cost of the funeral. I can’t adequately describe how it felt to be there. Indeed, words seem too cheap as I try to string them together. I had the honor of performing a song for Bryce that night, which was captured on a few cell phone video cameras. Here is the resulting performance, for all of you that could not be there.

Until next time,
JJ

Greetings everyone, and welcome to Oh-So Dot Net. While the cupboard is bare at the moment, I can assure you that over the coming weeks you can expect a great deal of expansion.

At the moment we are in the process of recording our first album. Bass guitar has been tracked for the majority of the songs, and tracking for the army of guitars is underway as well.

We’re also in the process of planning the project’s live debut, tentatively in March, so definitely keep an eye out for that!

This is only the beginning!
