ABANDON (Patreon)

May I present to you: ABANDON
This my long-promised compilation of b-sides, demos, old rarities, and other goodies from the last 15 years or so, and it's an exclusive download for you guys. It's something I've wanted to compile since probably around 2007, when I realized that the rate at which I wrote and recorded things far exceeded the rate at which I could actually properly finish anything. Of course, the rate at which I compile massive b-sides albums has also been less than brisk - so the pile of tracks that belonged here always continued to grow larger.
While there's a bunch of music included here because I didn't like how it turned out, I'm actually fond of most of it and sad that I couldn't complete it. But it's for the best, because I'm carving out room to work on projects I'm more passionate about and which I think you'll enjoy the most.
Thanks for your patience with me getting this out - we hit the $300 Patreon milestone about half a year ago, much sooner than I thought we would, and I was still living abroad at that time. Since getting home in May I've spent a few hours a week sorting through multiple drives and organizing and tagging all these tracks. There are 1,426 pieces of music here, coming to a total playing time of 53 hours and 55 minutes.
It's about 7gb of audio files (and one video!) that have been organized into a variety of folders, many with liner notes in .rtf format.
You have a few download options:
1. Mac users should be able to unzip the whole compilation out of this archive:

2. For other operating systems we broke it up into a few parts without special characters in the filenames because the original upload was a bit glitchy off-Mac:

Hope you enjoy, thanks for your continued support, and I'll be back soon with some "official" music!
