With the upcoming end of July release of my new Superman song single (“Your Superman, You Are Superman”), I thought I’d share a few of my thoughts about the development of this song with a series of tiny video posts.

The Big Takeover
The Ash Lovelies’ album (Ode to Arlington) is reviewed in this wonderful independent music magazine.  The magazine has been around for 30 years and has been driven by the vision of its founder Jack Rabid, who even wrote to us and said “we like what you are doing and we are just the sort of magazine that finds value in the artists who want to try something that hasn’t been tried or is different from an accepted norm.”

Welcome to the relaunched Factor 21 Records website with our new host BlueHost.com.  Our old host of many many years decided to get out of the hosting business after their systems were hacked by North Korea or extraterrestrials or someone.  Au revoir Nimbit!   I managed to replicate the essence of the old web site and added a few new things here and there, but there might be a bug or two on this site (I have tried to be diligent with my bug swatter).
