June 24, Five Nocturnes
The first commercial Valentine Wolfe release, Five Nocturnes, will be available soon. We took delivery of the final masters today. The EP consists of final versions of the tracks we’ve made available here and on our MySpace. So...why should you buy what we’ve been giving away?
1) Sound Quality: The masters sound so much better, I’m weeping with joy. For the first time EVER, I’m hearing what Valentine Wolfe the way it should sound.
2) Artwork: We’re very into the visual presentation, and the hard copy will feature art by Sarah and written commentary by Bo.
3) Money. We’re Capitalist pigs, and we want some, and preferably from Valentine Wolfe, not our day jobs.
4) The Final Word. We’re into exploring the process, and we’d love to show the end result of the long journey we’ve documented with demos and the like.
We’ll look into adding the songs to itunes. The initial hard copy run will be VERY limited. We’ll take pre-orders as soon as we can agree on how much to charge for the EP. Contact us at the address below if you’d like a copy.
One last thing...we’re going to make 5 EPs that will feature unique packaging. We’ll probably give these away. If you feel you’d die without one, let us know.
PS-Massive Mastering did the final Mastering work for us. We recommend them without hesitation.

First Summer Show: July 16, The Garage at Biltmore, Asheville, North Carolina. 10:00 PM Cost, Ages: TBD.
A two for one show (of sorts)...Bo will performing a short solo bass soundscape set followed by a full on Valentine Wolfe set, full of all kinds of new music.
The bill also included the Omega Cell from Charlotte, and a few other acts (we’re still getting details). The Garage stays open until 4, so there will be all kinds of time to hang out and rock out. See you in Asheville!
We’re finishing up the lyrics section of the site, and will be adding a gallery soon.
Demo versions of the 3 new songs should appear soon, which, for us, means in a month or so.

We are putting up a new ( and yet somewhat familiar) song tonight. We have remixed Rapunzel so that it now sounds much more like a trip hop song than before. You can hear this in the audio section, and this song is completely free to download! Yes! Do it!

Download MP3 Versions of the first four songs from the 2009 EP
(Yes, we know. We’re working on a better title).
On our browser configuration, we just held down the alt/option key and clicked...Presto! The Download started. You should NOT actually get to the Quick Time screen.
All four tracks are higher quality MP3 files than those on MySpace.
And please, feel free to download these tracks. In other words, yes, we’re giving the MP3 versions of these songs away. Let us know if you have problems with the download or the file.

Forever Embrace has been unveiled to the world. Hear it here and our other usual haunts (MySpace, Vampire Freaks). Also, we’ve made all the new songs available for download on our MySpace, but that doesn’t seem to be showing up as an option.
So we’ll work on that...
