BEGIN TRANSMISSION
I have a Ko-fi! Support the artist: ko-fi.com/liebermintz
Update #1: new name. We're not Lesbian Concentrate anymore - we're Monaural! I chose the name for easier marketing, especially to family and more prudish friends. And besides, the shock value of being named after a collection of lesbian separatist folk songs has worn off.
Update #2: I'd like some money, kind sirs. That's why I've joined for the glorified tip jar service, Ko-fi.

Update #3: Bekowsky's been retooled so hard, I'm not even sure I can call it Bekowsky anymore. It's instead become:
Shaking Hands with Modern Man, a Kevin & Kell-themed concept album written around the question of "what if Rudy Dewclaw wrote Rumours by Fleetwood Mac?" It's a smidge profane - i.e. three instances of high-level profanity on one song, entirely during the coda - but otherwise safe enough for a teenager. It's a hard-ish PG-13 or a really, really light R as far as albums are concerned. After all, Bill's material isn't exactly adult in that jugular sense. And like Mercy Machine before it, it fits nicely in a 45-minute package! It's 90% done - outside of some vocal collabs from the guy who's singing for Bruno and some final mixing, I'm done with the instrumentals.
"But wait," you may ask, "in your prior journals you mentioned that Bekowsky was a double album. If Shaking Hands is a single album, where are the other songs?"
That's where this next one comes in:
Zeddemore is the album after Shaking Hands. Right now, I'm demoing selections for the album alongside repurposing and remixing songs from Bekowsky that couldn't fit the Shaking Hands concept, but I do have a set of videos in queue to be uploaded to both YouTube and my Facebook fan page. Right now, it's looking to be a single album - albeit with some room here and there - but I'll record a little more than usual and put the scraps from this, Shaking Hands and whatever's left from the Bekowsky sessions into a B-sides album. Nothing as poorly mixed and balanced as Swish - I'm re-recording "Isolation" for Zeddemore - but a higher standard altogether. Basically, the Hebrew National of B-sides comps.
And yeah, I named that album after Winston, the best Ghostbuster.
