A little crazy here, so I apologize: I forgot to mention that the first annual Logan Whitehurst Memorial Awards For Excellence In Comedy Music were handed out at Con On The Cob in Akron, OH last weekend.

If you happened to not catch all the music at PenguiCon, or you did but you wanted to hear it again, there are now songs from several of the concerts online, featuring The Great Luke Ski, Power Salad, Devo Spice, Insane Ian, Possible Oscar, Toyboat, and some other guy. It's even got DVD extras like interviews!

That's the name of the new album from our friend and fellow FuMPer Steve Goodie. It's a kids album with nineteen songs, twelve of which are about Harry Potter, and if you pre-order it by this weekend you can get it, either as a physical CD or a download, for only five bucks. To whet your appetite, here's Steve's authorized parody of Weird Al's " ( Read more... )

This one's definitely gonna get remixed. Time pressure was on me, and the music's good but not as good as I'd like, and I'm wrestling with both new hardware (the sound in my motherboard) and software (Reaper). Still, I like it, and think some harmonies and sound effects will add nicely to it ( Read more... )
