The Paupers' Death

Over the next two weeks I'm going to mock up some proofs-of-concept in garageband for the Baudelaire CD I'm working on. Here's the first one:



The final product will be much more professionally and lovingly recorded, with a fair amount more instrumental diversity that you'll hear here. I'm picturing strings in the place of some of these guitars, for example. Maybe a horn, maybe an accordion. Hell maybe an oboe, I don't know.

But you can help support the project by pre-ordering your copy through my Kickstarter campaign. $10 for the download, $15 for the physical CD. Or, make my year and give at one of the higher pledge levels. If I can raise $5,000 by January 24, all manner of things become possible.

Thanks, and happy listening!

I stumbled here through the 'Baudelaire in a Box' Wordpress page.  I love this.  I wasn't aware of how clearly I needed more Baudelaire set to musical slideshows.  Until now, I have had to satisfy myself with pictureless, old Leo Ferre recordings.  Not only am I more than happy to pre-order, but you have instantly solved half of my Christmas list dilemmas.

Love,

Erik
