So why release a Special Edition?

Well, here's the story. I had recently completed "The American Album," with a good deal of success, recognition, and appreciation. The composers I tributed were sending their compliments, the fans were happy, and I was pleased in that I had finally reached my goal of creating the first ever tribute to the American Composers.

Then talk began of another version of the album. Perhaps a Volume 1.5, with just a few new tracks, so that it could be sold... Perhaps a whole new album, tributing the composers I missed the first time around... Perhaps a more open remix project, where I would oversee the thing, but include several other musicians in the remixing process... and so on. They were all good ideas in their own regard, and still undecided as to what to do, I began writing again.

But then, I had second thoughts. Not only did I have much less time to work on music, but I wasn't really diggin' my new mixes. They just didn't have the same spirit as the first batch. I felt like I was just churning out a sequel, without the heart and ambition that started me off on the whole project. After all, I had already done what I set out to do, right? I set out to make a one-of-a-kind tribute, and I had done so. Why do it again?

But, so as not to waste what I had made, I decided to do what everyone seems to do with DVDs these days - release a Special Edition! The idea in itself was a little silly, but it did offer me a chance to release the new work, complete with Bonus Material (and re-release of all the mixes in lossless audio formats).

All in all, I'm rather tired of working on massive remix projects. I'd really like to just finish this puppy, wash my hands of the whole thing, and go back to releasing one mix at a time, just for fun, whatever I feel like writing. And so I release the Special Edition. I hope you enjoy it.
