I'm pleased to finally be able to say that my new download EP, Death of an Aura, is now available for listening/purchasing on Bleep: link
It's a couple of days late, but I'm just glad to see it up there at long last. FLAC should be following shortly, along with iTunes et al too.
I suppose you could say the EP features my vocal debut, though mainly through humming and oohing here and there for a bit of extra texture, plus some nonsense lyrics for good measure. 
A couple of tracks (Napoli and Raido) are the result of a collaboration between Benet Walsh and I (you may recognise Ben from his work with Plaid), which were a lot of fun -- hopefully we'll get a few more tracks done together by the time the next album arrives.
The EP was expertly mastered by one John McCaig, who I believe occasionally pops by these parts. ;)
Anyway, hope you like it!

Thanks! 
packetst0rm -- ah, great stuff -- thanks very much for coming along to the show!
Leo -- Bleep only deal with labels at the moment, and although this is just a download release that I could have technically released through Tunecore etc., it's released through Benbecula just like any other physical release. Well, I guess there is a physical component to the release, for 'Minerals' subscribers anyway...

This is excellent news. Was this the project you did with that guitar guy who's also worked with Plaid?
I will certainly download this as soon as you have lossless files for sale. Superbly crafted recordings deserve hi fidelity listening. Please let us/me know when you've got them up. I'm ichin' to listen.
Didn't you master Lemodie yourself?

Yep, worked with Benet on a couple of the tracks, plus working on more together at the moment. 
And yep, I mastered Lemodie myself, though mainly due to time constraints more than anything else. I do prefer getting a fresh pair of ears to do it though, which is why I turned to ol' jdg for help this time (and 'cos he's cheap). ;)
