Electrum News: January 15, 2010

OOP!!
While the band remains on extended hiatus, both "Frames Of Mind" & "Standard Deviation" have gone Out Of Print in CD format. They are available in high-quality MP3 Albums, complete with cover artwork and liner notes, at CD Baby.

Side Project: Dave Kulju - "Abstract Expression"
Dave has released his debut solo CD "Abstract Expression". The CD features 9 instrumental compositions that explore various textures and styles within the Instrumental Progressive Rock genre.

Dave wrote, recorded, and produced the record in his home studio working with a number of talented guest musicians.

This collection of music while experimental enough for most progressive music fans places a heavy focus on strong melodies and well crafted songwriting. Listeners will be rewarded with hard driving pieces like "Internal Combustion" and "The Main Attraction" but also treated to more contemplative works like "Pleiades" and "The Depth of Autumn". The charm of the quirky and unpredictable are well represented in "Picnic at the Slag Heap" and the lengthy "Somnium".

Dave is currently writing material for his sophomore solo release, tentatively titled "Counting Stars".
