Podcast Amazing Episode NOTHING
Sorry, you jerkazoids, but there is no podcast this week. Because, man, you know how it is sometimes. Don’t worry, we will be back next week, and we’ll probably bring a podcast.
Honestly, we’ve started getting a bit bored with our current structure, and we want to move the podcast more in the direction of music discussion. That doesn’t mean we’re cutting out listener...

Welcome to the very first installment of our new podcast! In this episode, we meander along a host...

Scoops The Robot
An Apocalypse In Binary: The Memoirs of Gearhart Deckrion
Thanks, Calvin
Let's Talk About Gearhart
“Gearhart” is just an easy way of shortening “An Apocalypse In Binary: The Memoirs of Gearhart Deckrion”. Yikes. That’s a really long title.
So, yeah. This is the cover for Gearhart. It took us a long time to get right. The album, as a whole, has a very specific tone to it, at least to us, which took a couple passes to capture. At some point, we’ll show you...
Let's Talk About Scoops The Robot
First off, what you see above is the cover for that album, and it’s something we’re pretty happy with. All of the pictures you see there are hand drawn by me and Derek on crayons and construction paper. There’s certain individual pictures that we’re pretty happy with, even though they can’t really be seen well in the cover photo, so we might reveal shots of...
3/23/2010: THE DATE IS SET

Final "Scoops" and "Gearhart" update.
Our new records have both been written and mixed. Yes, mixed, but not finished.
As we review the latest mixes of An Apocalypse in Binary: The Memoirs of Gearhart Deckrion and Scoops the Robot, the two records Starship Amazing are currently preparing, we’re taking notes on what needs to be fixed and tweaked. Surprisingly, there’s not much to be done (but let’s be clear, there is...

Of course, this doesn’t mean the records will be out tomorrow or anything, but it means that we’re almost there! This has been a really...
It’s been a while so I figured I’d better drop an update. The albums are fast approaching something similar to completion, even of we aren’t quite sure what that looks like. But it’s all coming together, friends. And when it’s finished, itbwill be glorious.
