Jillian Aversa Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 It is time: my debut album, Origins, has hit the streets!!! Pick up your copy today! Physicals are at JillianGoldin.com, full quality digitals are available through CD Baby, and other digitals are on iTunes. Why get it today, you ask? Read on. ----------- Earth Day Fundraiser In honor of Earth Day, I want you to help me in contributing to The Nature Conservatory's Plant a Billion Trees campagin! For every copy of Origins (physical or digital) purchased by 11:59 pm EST on April 22nd, I will donate one dollar to this cause. What can one dollar do? One dollar plants one tree! Help save The Atlantic Forest in Brazil - one of the most endangered rainforests in the world, with only 7% left of its original area. Unbelievable... My goal is to raise $100 for the campaign this week. You can also contribute on your own separately by clicking on the image on this page. You can even track the progress there. Mother Nature will thank you; I promise. Let's do this! Keep in mind that the number on the page may appear lower at times because I will be donating my album proceeds in batches, as opposed to one order at a time. ----------- Anyway, I hope you too are excited for the release. Those of you who won digital copies through me before will be receiving them soon. Please let me know what you think of the album! You can post reviews on the CD Baby page, talk here, or discuss your thoughts on my own forum. I would really love to hear your reactions and answer any questions you may have.

Jillian Aversa Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 Falchion: I don't think I ever got an email from you about it, did I? Shoot me a message. :> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zircon Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I may have had all the tracks sitting on my hard drive for the last few weeks, but even though I've spent lots of time with each already during the mixing/mastering process, today is still awesome. BTW, you may notice "Deliverance of the Heart" is the final track - just for the record, this IS legitimately licensed and royalties are being paid... just in case you were curious ps. Earf Day. Plant some green with some green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 For those of you that helped vote in the OurStage finals last month and emailed me about digital copies, I've sent you your download codes! Let me know if there are any technical problems. Should be okay, though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liontamer Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I have done some quick pimpage. The blog, of course. And since "Deliverance of the Heart" is on there, enjoy a spot on VGMdb! Good luck getting the material out there for the listeners, Jill. I'll do what I can! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kholdstare Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'm waiting for the preorder to ship. I'm really excited - the album looks to be quite awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I've been listening to the album on repeat a few times, and I have to say that the album does a great job in being atmospheric. One question though - is the ID3v2 tag on track 4 messed up a bit in the song name? At least on this computer, it shows up as "Kalé" in the last word.

Kanthos Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Congrats Jill! I'll probably get my copy in a couple weeks, shipping to Canada being what it is (at least, it took about two weeks for the VGDJ pin). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vivi22 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I've ordered me a physical copy so hopefully it'll be here within a week if I'm lucky. From what I've heard on Ourstage and the previews on your site it sounds awesome, so I can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unsung Plumber Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 technical problem: Bad key. Same here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 Eeeeeeep! So sorry about the "bad key" problem, guys! Apparently that batch I generated was messed up. Sending new ones now. Wes: I'm not surprised about the gobbledy gook showing up in your tag; track 4 is supposed to be "The Secret Guards of Kalé". I'm sure it's the accent on the e that messed things up in your player. It looks fine in itunes, though, so I guess it depends on what you're using. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceansAndrew Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Order +1! I'm looking forward to this, it's been all metal all the time recently, so this will be a great change of pace. Listening to the samples on your site has me very excited for the cd to arrive. Congrats on your first album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Insane Rocker Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Downloading it now, looking forward to listening. I'll probably get into it at work tonight. Congratulations, Jill. I hope to join you in the realm of albums sometime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwordBreaker Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Just wanted to pop in and say congrats, dudet. I'm sure this is a huge step for you. I'll try to buy this whenever possible, 'cause let me tell you...I enjoyed those previews. Now, take a load off, Jill. You need to rest up. Also, pump up an remix or two, eh?

BardicKnowledge Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Ordered -- all sorts of good music has been coming my way in the mail recently! This will be the 3rd CD I buy directly as a result from the Ourstage competition, having already gotten Antigravity and Hero of the Grey Area...both of which I'd highly recommend of you're a fan of zircon or sgx's music. It's nice to hear what they do with original compositions, and I'm sure I'll say the same thing about Origins once I get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 Thank you, all! As for the continuing "bad key" problem, Xerol will be fixing it soon. What's happening is that whenever I create a new key and someone uses it, it deletes the keys generated after that. Let me know if you've still be unable to download, and I will send you another one today as soon as the code is corrected. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jillian Aversa Posted April 22, 2008 Author Share Posted April 22, 2008 What's your real name, Forty-second? I wish I could keep track of everyone through the names I know them better by, hehe. Too bad PayPal doesn't have an online handle field. ^_~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
