(Well, unless you’re Feather or Nursehella, in which case, this is old news, because you’ve already heard everything I have done for Opensource. Well, barring one track I just can’t seem to get a good mix for.)
The new version of “Eighty Three,” now with improved announciation and a great vocal hook added by my friend Zoe, is now up, as is “It’s The Beat,” a song about eating a french fry in Starbucks, if it’s about anything at all. Why now? Because I figure they’re as good they are gonna get, and I have certain persons requesting that certain of these tracks turn up for download because they can’t wait for the album to go up.
However, I think OpenSource as a whole is effectively done outside of that one track I referenced earlier. It’s pretty likely that I’m pushing the Tycho collab back because while it’s going to be great, it’s not going to wrapped anytime soon, and the Nurse Hella collab will probably make more sense on her CD (though it’s going to be great too, make no mistake about that,) so that leaves OpenSource pretty much done. I’m not sure whether people can or even should have to deal with almost 80 minutes of pretty much just me, but that’s probably how it’s going to work for better or worse.
And, yeah, those tracks above are 128kbps-licious, but nice new 320kbps trackage from me will be on the RhymeTorrents Halloween LP when it comes out. In my song for that comp, I make fun of Uwe Boll, and I make a Harry Potter reference in the first line of the chorus, so I figure I’ve it should appeal vaguely to my constituency. I’ve also hedged my bets by referencing a show I recently reviewed that happened to be very fitting for Halloween too.
So, yeah, expect OpenSource Lyricist news somewhere in here soon. Maybe even a release date.

you’re an absoloute sweetheart for putting these up… and now i finally get my fix for the song that’s been running through my brain! these two tracks are stunning, karl – and you best believe they’re on my playlist.
i’m really looking forward to hearing our collab, and even if it goes on my cd as opposed to Opensource, i’d be proud and happy to have it on your site too.
love you mahou shounen k.o.!
