Final few days of CD burning

Into the last four days of burning of the charity CDs. All orders received since Friday will go in post today. PLEASE get your orders in and money sent by Saturday as no orders will be accepted past the end of the month. All profits are going to DEC and Cancer Research UK in September.

Thanks as always to everyone who has responded, it's been an incredible response, and I've made lots of new friends through this project.

The amounts raised for the two charities will be posted here in due course.

Thank you ALL so very much for your donations and kind support along the way.

Final push to end of burning date

There are just over two weeks left before we reach the end of CD burning for the charity project, so please get your copy ordered as soon as possible if you haven't already.

I intend to wrap up the monies for the two charities as early as possible in September, and will publish here what we have managed to raise between us.

Once again, a huge thank you to everyone kind enough to donate. There are a few people who have requested a copy but not followed through by paying, so please do so asap, as I don't want the charities to suffer or lose out.

Thanks so much again for everyone's efforts.

Progress update and a new CD

As we've now reached August, it is time to take stock of where we are with the project.

Sales of the charity CD EP have been steady and a nice little amount has been raised for both of the two charities. As highlighted before, it has not been a cheap project to get "out there", there are a number of necessities for projects like this, not least the expense of the license to be able to use the songs in the first place. As a guy on a pension, it is monetarily hard to take these projects on, but it's been my baby for a few years so I'm glad it's finally reached fruition and I'm very pleased with the response so far. Thank you everyone. 

I have been spreading the cost of the license over the first batch of CDs, and we are still a little short of that being paid...in other words we can make so much more profit when it reaches that trigger point, so please keep the word about the project out there. Every single penny of profit goes towards DEC and Cancer  Research UK. Burning will finally end on 31st August.

I have been adding a few songs and musicscapes onto my Mixcloud page and have received a few nice comments about them. I am contemplating producing a CD with some of these and more, just to help raise a bit more money for the charities. Details will be posted here if we get that far. You can hear some of these songs over at http://www.mixcloud.com/stevegood121/
