Where are those piggies?!

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

Well, they have been crazy busy!  I am sitting here right now with Chris, working on the extended “Porcine Romance in A-flat Minor”.  I expect that tonight we will finish it, and then ship it off to my musical buddy in Scotland, who will be rendering it into its final format.  This means that (with luck) episode 24 will be ready to drop early this weekend, and it will feature the HOTTEST Piggy Moto track to date!  Now, I MIGHT get a little wacky and put the WHOLE song together.. singing and all.  I’d re-work the vocal track and clean up its levels a bit, add it to the instrumental piece, and then post that as a podcast episode episode in and of itself (as a special bonus for subscribers).  But, if I’m gonna do that, I’m gonna need to know you’re out there reading this.

So, after you read this, drop in with a reply, or zap me an e-mail.

Also, Here’s a shout out to you folks with access to public cork boards.  Check out the Piggy Moto Fliers.  Download them, print them out (you’ll need to chop them in half, but hey, 2 adverts for the price of one, right?) and then post them wherever people might appreciate an adult-friendly podcast novel about musical swine.  Just don’t go posting these where people might think Piggy Moto is a children’s story.  I’d hate for parents’ ears to bleed at the first reference to pr*stitutes or h*mos*xuality, or the first time someone drops the “F” bomb!

Also, Help the piggies stay online!  Mevio has lined me up with several sponsors, who pay me for click-throughs and commissions.  I have special offer codes for costumes, web-hosting, and even custom art and printing.  There is also a Piggy Moto store where you can get your PM merchandise, over at Zazzle.Com.  Couple that with my discount code, and you’ll be helping the pigs out twice over.

So, that’s it for now.  Back to post production with me!

OOh geez!  What a past few weeks!!  Chris and I put together another tune for this episode, and I think this one is ESPECIALLY fun.  Chris had this to say about the song:

[Composing the lullaby] was a challenging combination of things to have to do, but it really got our creativity flowing. It was so much hard work, and meant several long days and late nights rubbing our eyes in front of computer and keyboard. But when everything finally came together, it was so exciting to hear! I love the way it works alongside the narration; it really turned out better than I’d ever have expected.”

We are already rolling ideas around for the next several songs we need to put together,including a solo version of the lullaby (why would we EVER need that, HHhhmmmmmmmMMMMMM?)
