You may have noticed that the index page of Zircon Studios now defaults to the HTML version of the site. This isn’t a mistake - over the next month or so the site is going to be getting a revamp. The “music services” section in particular is going to be vastly improved, and the whole thing will be running on a smoother, more customized backend. I’ll be sticking to HTML rather than Flash for a number of reasons, such as search engine optimization and better loading times, but if you were digging the old layout don’t worry… I have it saved, so it may come back in upgraded form at some point!

ANTIGRAVITY, my third original album, has officially started shipping today worldwide! It’s the biggest zircon release yet, featuring no less than four other artists and nearly outselling Impulse Prime in preorders alone. Pick up your copy at CD Baby for $14.99 or head to the Zircon Studios shop for the digital version. It’s also available on iTunes!

If you head to the video game remixes section you’ll also see a new remix, “Above Reason” from the game Streets of Rage 2. This is an old-school collab between myself and tefnek with some help from Rellik. It’s a big beat, butt-kickin’ romp through the stage 4 music, “Under Logic”. As always, check out OverClocked ReMix for more great FREE arrangements of both classic and modern video game tunes.

You may have also noticed that I have a new website! Having been in the works for nearly a year, my good friend & colleague from the days of VGDJ, Chad Behnke (aka Cyan_Ide) has finished the site you see before you - available in both Flash AND HTML. He was also the art designer for Antigravity’s packaging and insert. Give the man a round of applause! (But don’t forget to shoot him an email if you are encountering technical difficulties - he’s the new webmaster!)
