The Compassion Experiment

  Hello friends and family! We are back with our second album, BINARY STAR! The release date is April 23, 2022. This is the promo video we made for the album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8i_h9bZ17E This album shows us growing in all aspects of songwriting and production. We have stepped the quality up and we worked hard to make it flow well together. It's hard to believe that until a couple months ago, we had never tried making music together and now we are releasing our second album.  And this one is a really good! You can hear the full album stream here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qquoclw8d4 If you want to hear the tracks separately, you can listen to them on our new Youtube page: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL77B2i5Q0aGEECw23l9cGgaP_lb9tabLN If you want to support our efforts to take over the world: https://unknownentities.bandcamp.com/album/binary-star Or you can buy some of our sweet merchandise!

 Hello Family and Friends! As you can imagine, nothing ever goes off without a hitch, and our debut album, is the perfect example of that. We finished the album on New Years Eve, it's so long ago, that we've completed two more albums since then. In this case, the hold up has been caused by our distributor, CD Baby, who flagged a couple tracks because they matched another song. This is because the whole album is done with royalty-free samples and loops. They cost nothing to use, or download, and can be used for commercial work, like ours. The cool thing about royalty-free samples and loops is: every person on the planet has access to them and can do anything they want with it. It's actually super cool and no two musicians or groups will use them in the same ways, it's limitless really, what you can do with this stuff. In our case, we made three albums in less than three months. And they're really good, btw, you don't get to hear the crappy songs, just the good on...

George and myself at the Milton Mutt Strutt 2016. As some people know, I'm currently being sued thanks to an accident George and I had while still living in our apartment building last year. Though I can't go into details - in this particular case - it wasn't George's fault, or mine, it was just an accident. But someone is trying to take advantage of the fact that we were covered by apartment insurance and they are looking to make a quick buck from my insurance company, State Farm. Living with a reactive dog is rough. Living in an apartment building with a reactive dog was nothing less than a nightmare, every single day. I was physically ill for a year straight due to the stress of having to get George in and out of the apartment building at least twice a day. It was awful, but what choice did I have? After the incident in question, things were even more stressful, would we have another accident? I lived on the 12th floor and couldn't use the elevator...

     I was given advice by a writer who's opinion I respect, Steve Abbott. He told me the best way to get more readers to tune into my blog was by posting more work - at least one blog a week - and that each post should include a picture or two.      I've taken this advice to heart and have written regular blogs ever since, in an attempt to grow my audience. It couldn't get any smaller.      This blog, I call it: The King and Little Surfer Girl, contains a funny poem and a short story that is part of an anthology I re-edited last year.       I'll just keep these coming, it's fun.       Hopefully it's fun for you too.       Cheerio,      Mike, Tito, George and Ghost Spencer      May 2016 The King of the Friend Zone He’s the King of the Friend Zone, He’s a lucky guy, He’s friends with many women, Though he doesn’t know why.
