Releasing an album has been a semi-secret dream of mine for years, and now that it’s happened, I find I love the idea of having a small number of actual printed CDs to distribute amongst friends, family and anyone else who wants to back me, and I love that today’s technology lets me do all this for about about £220, which breaks down thusly:

Releasing an album has been a semi-secret dream of mine for years, and now that it’s happened, I find I love the idea of having a small number of actual printed CDs to distribute amongst friends, family and anyone else who wants to back me, and I love that today’s technology lets me do all this for about about £220, which breaks down thusly:
£60 to print 50 booklet inserts with backer’s names, art and writing, along with art designed by the album artist Phraga and myself.
£160 to produce the same number of CDs, jewel cases, and inlays, including shrink-wrap so it stays looking new. Indiegogo’s minimum campaign is for £500 – a sum I could never even dream to reach, but it’s the minimum so there you go – but whatever money I do get will be put aside for this exact project until I can earn enough to complete it, if I don’t reach my (secret) goal of £220.
