big giant circles Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 WHAT, NO ICECAP? Pffft, well, I WAS going to buy it, but now I'm just disappointed. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kizyr Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Great! I'll go ahead and pre-order mine this afternoon. Yeah, isn't he incredible? I really lucked out... Since he works for a big design firm, normally they would charge in the thousands for something like this. But as it turns out, he is a big fan of New Age/chillout music! So after listening to my stuff, he liked it so much that he offered to treat it as a personal project! And of course, he's getting signed copies of all my albums for the rest of his life. :> After checking his site, I've apparently seen a bunch of his Fallout 3 promotional art already. He's real good... KF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pezman Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 WHAT, NO ICECAP? Pffft, well, I WAS going to buy it, but now I'm just disappointed. Icecap I can live without... but it's still missing something... Hmmmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 Wow, coincidentally... Andy and I were just listening to the Mannheim Steamroller version of "Deck the Halls" over dinner tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Yeah, I wanted to set up those bulk discounts so that people could afford to get a bunch as Christmas gifts! With the economy the way it is right now, I think we could all benefit from reining in spending... :/ Strangely enough, this holiday shopping season might bring us some incredible deals due to the crappy economy and recent drop in Wall Street spurring on a desire by these companies to pull in quick profits. /offtopic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Wolf Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I'm not currently on a pipeline that'll let me load the previews, but I'll be buying it anyways. I wanted to pop in and say that cover is absolutely amazing too. Insane artwork, it looks like the ocean froze in the middle of a storm. (I know it's supposed to look like sand dunes, btw.) I had another question too. From an artist profit standpoint, does it make a difference where I order this from? Do you make more off a physical copy than you do off an iTunes copy, etc? Because I'll wait for a physical if it gives you more money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinewav Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I figured I was probably going to get this album anyway, but I just listened to the samples and now I'm definitely sold. Even though I won that digital copy of Origins a while back, I think I'm going to do the 2 CD deal here, just as a sign of support/I liked it enough that I want a hard copy.

Jillian Aversa Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 Hooray! I had another question too. From an artist profit standpoint, does it make a difference where I order this from? Do you make more off a physical copy than you do off an iTunes copy, etc? Because I'll wait for a physical if it gives you more money. Yes, I do get the biggest cut from physical sales since I'm set up directly with PayPal. They only charge a small transaction fee, whereas digital markets tend to take a bigger chunk. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
relyanCe Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 The previews are absolutely amazing. I want this piece of Christmas awesomeness! Expect a preorder from me if it is possible for me to get it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vivi22 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Pre-ordered. I submitted my order without even realizing I haven't used paypal since before I moved. It's not a huge deal since it'll just go to my parents house. In fact, it's probably better this way since I'm planning on slipping it into my fiancees stocking.

Clairval Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Preordered. Having a hard copy with a cool cover is still a good deal when you want your friends to take a listening "seriously", instead of messing it with their 5000 leaked songs they don't care about.

Shadow Wolf Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Preordered. I'm sure it's awesome and I can't wait to hear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chumble spuzz Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 WALKING IN THE AIR!! I heard an instrumental version of this song in the elevator at work a long time ago and instantly loved the melody, but I never figured out what song it was. And now I know. In thanks, I'll be pre-ordering your cd. I was thinking about it anyway, because Greensleeves is awesome, and your version sounds awesome, but this just sealed the deal.

Bahamut Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I decided to order another copy for a friend of mine...I probably should've ordered two to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 No problem, Wes - I'll just refund you the difference so you can get your $2 off deal. :> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayza Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aR1Ln-ctn5E Just for reference.. I remember-ish watching this in grade 6 I think.. That melody/chord progression never leaves you.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Yeah, my brother and I used to watch The Snowman around Christmastime when we were little. It was so soothing... My mom loved it because it kept us nice and quiet. ^-^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mutericator Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Bump for those interested in snagging the preorder, not much time left! Just secured mine myself... definitely looking forward to listening! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow Wolf Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Yay it ships tomorrow and it will be AMAZING. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthonium Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I'll definitely be ordering it today when I get home. My only complaint...I wish there were more songs even if it cost more. That voice is incredible so naturally I wanna hear more of it. I'm sure my mom will love this cd. She's crazy about Christmas music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziellink Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 So, when could the Europeans expect the CD to arrive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillian Aversa Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hey everyone! I take it most of you have not seen my website announcement yet, so I'll post it here: ----- The original release date for physical copies - November 25th - has been pushed back to December 10th due to unforseen problems on the part of the CD manufacturing company. In the meantime, anyone who has preordered Through Sand and Snow will be receiving a free digital download of the album shortly! Those of you who ordered additional CDs as holiday gifts, have no fear: all orders will still arrive before Christmas. If you have any other special instructions, please don't hesitate to let me know at mail@jilliangoldin.com. So sorry for the delay! ----- I know this may be a bit of a party pooper... But at least you will get to hear it even sooner, eh? Expect to receive an email with the download info by the end of the day; I'll be working through all the orders. And for those of you that DIDN'T preorder, remember that digital copies are still available today on CD Baby! (They will appear on iTunes as well, but unfortunately there's no way for me to predict when with them.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
