“Happiness Machine” Released!

Like The Desert’s first song idea and third to reach completion has … reached completion. If you liked My Bloody Valentine, The Man I fell in Love With, Slowdive, and other shoegaze/wall of sound tunes then you’ll hopefully like this one, too! Check it out here or one of the links below.

… And before we forget, look out for the self-indulgent acoustic version of “Happiness Machine” in the next couple days!

(That means remixing and messing around with it is ok as long as you give us credit for making the original song – so go ahead, we’d love to hear what you do with it)

Look for the source files and raw audio and MIDI tracks available for download soon! Just wait until you see the effects on the guitar. It’s mind-bending.
