Jul 5 2009 10:55 PM

It’s an honor to meet you, & to have your support,

Digital Current - was created with the mindset to break out of musical norms. To create something fresh with classical elements and sweeping, pulsing electronic thump. It's a unique blend of drum and bass, IDM, breaks, virtual orchestra, techno, ambient, reggae, chill, & rock.

You can check out my album, “The Fallen Rise” at cdbaby.com (mp3 & hardcopy), fixtstore.com (mp3 only) under the indie section or on iTunes - Just click on the appropriate photo links on my page to purchase.

“Audio Ascension Remixed” will be released very soon and “Face the Void” soon after. So stay connected, stay informed.

-David Courtad

Take care my fellow music junkie ;)

Hey Jesper how's it going?

Quick question for ya, are you going to be doing the soundtrack for assassins creed 2 as well?

Oh and im a huge fan of your work, don't think it's a coincidence that my 2 favorite video games all have the same composer (the hitman games, and assassins creed) haha.
