fuzmeister: RSS Feeds

---

They're quite nice. I finally got around to setting one up over at my site if anyone's interested in following the latest happenings via that.

I've been doing a bit of revamping lately on the site and, hopefully, a complete redesign will be easy to implement in the coming months due to how much of the information I am moving to the database.

Brandon, thanks for your RSS generation code you used with Vent; it helped me quite a bit in setting up my own feed.

fuzmeister: Download Keys

---

So, I'm working on implementing a download key system for any digital music listeners can get from my site. I may use this in the future with a third party check out system to actually sell music from my site instead of paying to list the albums on iTunes and those other services.

Had this up on my MySpace page for a while now, but I'm not sure if anyone from these parts goes there (trust me, I wouldn't have one if it weren't for my music).

I know I spoke about recording a new album recently, but I'm not sure I gave a specific announcement for it. The new record is called "Score" and will be released late May if everything remains on schedule. This is only my second "official" full release and it marks a noticeable change in the instrumentation and arrangements.

My friend Andy Woodward played upright bass on two tracks.

There are many electronic elements present on these songs, but it's not an electronic record. There are many psychedelic elements present on the record, but it's not psychedelia. What is it? Well, I don't exactly know as I'm not a genre expert, but I'm hoping everyone will like at least a few songs on it.

The first single is called "Down."

fuzmeister: New Zelda Game Goes Steampunk

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks trailer for Nintendo DS

Maybe steampunk is an inaccurate statement, but it looks like Zelda is finally moving out of the bronze age. I suppose the correct term would be steam-based technology and I'm not talking about the kind Valve has.

Anywho, what does everyone else think about this? Is this a bad change/direction for the series? Will you play it?

fuzmeister: Vent Tags

---

Sometimes, when I get bored or find bugs, I play around with the Vent source a little bit. A while ago, I made it so the view entries tagged with X feature will work with the RSS feed.

Apparently, there was an error (with my code or Brandon's) where the next 5 and previous 5 links on the page (not the RSS feed) did not contain that tag parameter, so navigating through entries effectively got rid of that feature.

Either way, it's fixed now. Enjoy.
