Okay, let's discuss the format for a moment. These clips will stream to your system in Real Audio format, which means they'll typically be very "lo-fi", while the audio quality on our CD equals the level you'd expect from a professional recording today. So, we ask that you please evaluate the clips based on musical style and content, not on the quality of the clips themselves.

If you'd prefer to be able to download some higher quality MP3 versions of these songs, look for us soon on the wildly popular iTunes service. Or, if you like the style of what you hear here (hear?), why not just go ahead and buy our CD through our site? At 50 cents per track, we' re cheper than any of the legal download services out there today! Heck, that also makes us cheaper than most soft drinks! (And we're only half as sappy . . . . .)

Thanks for checking us out!

The title track. Human existence consists, in part, of the struggle between our desire to simply be our true selves and our desire to live up to someone else's ideals. Most of the songs on the CD describe this struggle from all sorts of different angles. This is a song about choosing the real over the ideal. On a side note, we derived the term "Platform Souls" from the online massively multi-player roleplaying game, Everquest. EQ players should recognize which area is the city of the "Platform Souls".

Sometimes it's best to just let it be and walk away. A song about having said too much.

The "frame" in this case might be a computer monitor, or a picture frame, or a movie screen. A song about leaving reality behind for a while, changing names, and existing for a moment in a place where the impossible becomes real.
