New Video Coming
A new video for “A Certain Balance,” from the upcoming album, The Compromise Rationale, will be released this week. Using a similar approach to the other videos from The Ternary Instinct trilogy, it employs a storyline with imagery and symbolism. Created by longtime collaborator, Alex Smith, I think that he created a video is both thought provoking and visually stunning.
Mixing Backward Sky Falling
Yesterday, I met up with the guys in Backward Sky Falling at Belle Street Studios to mix the music that we recorded earlier this year. The album sounds great. We are probably looking at a 2023 release.

Thanks ProgDay
