Comaduster Solace EP

Comaduster is a dark electronic music project by Real Cardinal. The project explores harder and darker electronic music in an eclectic way, in an attempt to bring forth a convergence of ideas into and approachable and cohesive presentation.

End of this year the successor of the great "Hollow World" album will be published, which is titled "Solace".

Welp, the new release is clocking in at around 33 minutes. 6 full and 2 half songs (lengthy transitions). Vox are hopefully being finished this month. In the mean time, here's a tracklist:

1. The Retracer

2. Blackfolds

3. Emergent One

4. Ancient Generations

5. In Solace

6. The Strands of Time We've Left Behind

7. Shadowsphere

8. The Voidless

Aright. Here is what's happening.

I will be releasing the next release in 3 parts digitally, starting near the end of may! Keep watching here for updates. Each subsequent part will come out 3 weeks apart. And then, special/full/deluxe versions will come out!

Welp, as you can see, tomorrow is June 1st (well, it is now), and I have not upheld my own time line for the release, so here's an update:

1.) Life has been on call in other ways, and I've had to step back from my own music for a while, for personal and professional reasons, to make sure I'm good in other areas to keep things moving along! Some of it's still pretty exciting for people here! But most of it isn't. It's been a tough choice to make, but I also feel I need some perspective.

2.) The material just isn't there yet, and I need about a week solid of of full time vox recording and polish to get out (not something I have right away). So I'm working to schedule that in.

But now, the ducks are in a row, and I can establish a hard finish date for this first part.

July 8th -- Solace I : Emergent One

1. The Retracer

2. Blackfolds

3. Emergent One

4. (untitled)

There will be 3 parts in total. Each will be a digital release with it's own artwork. It ends up being 11 songs in total. So this 'ep' has basically turned in to a full blow release.

Solace I : Emergent One

Solace II : Ancient Generations

Solace III : Shadowsphere

One they're all out, there's a chance there will be a separate Vinyl release for those who are interested, but I'm looking at different avenues for this, to see if it's worth it. (Might crowd fund the vinyl side... I'd love to hear feedback on this!)

Once all digital parts are released, instrumentals will be made avail to all who'e purchased all 3 parts as a bonuse. Or can be purchased separately if you have no interest in the vocal versions.

I'll also include B-sides of lots of tunes (under different names, to keep the searches more clear), as lot of people ask for those!

Basically, this will be an on going, and modular 'special' edition, where you can got as far in as you'd like. And I'd love to hear more sugguestions.

More goodies will follow, but do not fear that you'll have to do 'double' pay for stuff, as each 'item' you can get out of all of this is pretty separate.

For the most part, I'm going to be signing off until I have something tangible.

Thanks for your patience, everyone. It's a been a rough and crazy year, but music is flowing.
