I've decided to release my series Re:Works as four E.P.'s rather than one album. The first Re:Works - Vol. 1 (Passing Thoughts) is now availlable to download free at richardpjohn.bandcamp.com

Re:Work I (Reflection), is now available to download free at richardpjohn.bandcamp.com. At the time of writing it's currently at number five most downloaded/streamed in the solo piano category.

Every two weeks for the next few months I'll be posting reworkings of earlier works, beginning this week with a reworking of Reflection from my 2010 album Passing Thoughts.

I am currently working on a new album (working title 'flow'), due for release in March 2019.

'flow' currently consist of 14 tracks, with a combination of piano and electronics.

As of August 2018, I have deleted all of my major social media accounts (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, GooglePlus, LinkedIn, Tumblr, etc.).
I have kept a few accounts whose purpose is the posting of music only (e.g. Soundcloud), and this blog, where I'll post occasional updates of what I'm working on, new music, etc.

Among an abundance of reasons for deleting my social accounts, the following three books were instrumental in my final decision.

Deep Work by Cal Newport - “Efforts to deepen your focus will struggle if you don’t simultaneously wean your mind from a dependence on distraction.”

10 Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now by Jaron Lanier - “Now everyone who is on social media is getting individualized, continuously adjusted stimuli, without a break, so long as they use their smartphones. What might once have been called advertising must now be understood as continuous behavior modification on a titanic scale.”

Walden by Henry David Thoreau - “I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.” 

My track We Can Be Alone, written for Piano Day 2017, is now available at Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon.

On August 12th my track Light As Air from my 2017 album tristesse was played on the Adam Walton Show on BBC Radio Wales.
You can hear it here at the 2:52:27 mark:

My track ...light as air... from my 2017 album tristesse will be played on BBC Radio Wales on Saturday August 9th.

On 13th July I released a new single, Walk Away.

I am pleased to announce that my latest album 'Satie - Selected Works' is now available.
