Music
Work continues on the third "now that they're here" release, Pacific Radio Fire. No new guitarist has been added to the lineup and it is looking increasingly like this release will be a solo effort on songwriter/producer Kevin Brislin's part. Most of the twelve songs for this release are in final mixing, save for one song that is about to be totally rewritten.
The Deadwood Zen project has been cancelled as a separate release. Some of the instrumentals may be integrated into PRF, but most are to be abandoned. Brislin cites the overuse of available loops as a main reason for the project being dropped. Rather than try to reconfigure the songs, it was easier to just let them go for now.
Film
A new cut of the Kevin Brislin/Stephanie Scott film, "So the wind won't blow it all away" was finalized in January 2007. The original movie was cut to drop six minutes of footage deemed unnecessary and the movie was rescored by Brislin. While searching for a few movie festivals to enter this into, they are looking into having the entire film on Google Video. More on that when it happens.
Recording Studio
No good news on the studio. It is no closer to being finished than it was six months ago. Interior siding still has to be chosen and installed, as well as floor covering. Only when the structural elements are completed can the studio be moved from its current location.
Other
Brislin will be in Los Angeles, CA for the month of July finishing up the classwork for a Masters Degree in Digital Cinema. After that, he will be working on his as-yet unchosen thesis film.
