I have featured on albums on Hurt Records before, the small narrative pieces on the majority of the albums, and that was the extent of my involvement until the..  … Read More

Hello everyone, This is just a really quick blog to mention the fact that there will be a series of Zombies I (mixed down) ringtones available from these blogs in the future. All for free of course!
