Hey all, please ,please, please check out my album, "into the great wide open". ( search " James Durand"Wink. It's available to download now, at iTunes , amazon and rhapsody. 9 instrumental tracks, mostly bass driven, written , performed, and recorded by myself. If you liked my track for the Statii album, I think (hope)! You will like this. There are a few of my old statii on here, plus an alembic and my GB's. Let me know what you think, as I'm always looking to improve, my writing and production skills, Many thanks, James.

Good first effort, James. Did you finance it all yourself as well, or are you signed?

Thanks you very much guys, your comments are very much appreciated! Having been the only person to listen to this stuff for the last year, it is very liberating to get it out there, and get some feedback. Cheers! Stenobass, not sure what's up with Amazon, I thought it was worldwide? Will have a look into it. Regards, James.

Downloading here too - James - has it been in the making long enough to feature your old/my current S2 and/or Empathy? If so, which tracks?

The headed s2 is not on there, but I'm pretty sure the empathy made it in a few places, Im going to update my website, and I'll put some notes about the tracks on there, something can't do with iTunes unfortunately. J.

Nice work there Mr. James. I particularly like Miss Opportunity. Lovely bass sound. Well done sir. Great to see board members such as yourself and Todd putting together some really good tunes. Thumbs ahoy!

Good stuff James, after the sneak preview i had a year ago i'm not surprised it sounds this good! I will be downloading when back from my hols! Just an observation and tell me to F*** off if you want but a few of those tracks i reckon would lend themselves well to lyrics which would obviously make them a little more commercial = ££££££!!!!Smile

Thanks Damon. That was my old Alembo on Miss O. And I'm pretty sure my old empathy on the middle 8 part. I very much enjoy Todd's stuff too, looking forward to an album. J.
