It’s finally happened, and it’s a dream that I thought would never come true. Not only to have my 2nd album on iTunes which is all my current compositions and musical works, I now have Simple Faith as well. Simple Faith is a very special album to me, because it documents my first years of music making from 1998-2004. Through college and even post college era, I was composing music nonstop. This period of my life is where some of my brightest and enchanting melodies were composed and recorded.
Simple Faith [Remastered] is a remastering and new production of the original tracks from the first release of Simple Faith back in 2004. Now, newly mastered tracks featured new mixes that bring out full synthesized soundscapes and add new light to some older collective works. As an added bonus, this [Remastered] edition of Simple Faith adds four new songs: What Goes Around Come Around, Meat Grinder and new 10 year anniversary remix and remake of the Simple Faith song and finally an instrumental piano solo which showcases the melody from “Love, Life & Redemption’s” Cosmic Romance (Alex Mix) dance track.

Many of Farish’s works can be heard on The Weather Channel’s Local on the 8s. One of his songs, “Holding Hands” is featured on The Weather Channel’s Smooth Jazz CD released in October 2007, The Weather Channel Presents: The Best of Smooth Jazz.

I want to take this time to announce a very exciting chapter of my life just about launch. Everyone probably knows that I’ve been making music for years now, and I’ve never really had an official release other than through the old Blue Man Fans web store. For the first time, my newest album, “Love, Life & Redemption” will be made available in the iTunes music store, Amazon MP3 store, Rhapsody, Napster, Last.fm, Nokia, Verizon, Emusic, Zune and about 5 other outlets worldwide. We are so very blessed to have this opportunity to share my music with the masses for the very first time on such a global platform. We also want to take the time to thank someone very special, without naming anyone, who is responsible for seeing this event come to light. Without them, none of this would be possible, and I’m so thrilled that we together are on this journey of my life. I pray a special blessing upon their house and their lives day to day. I said it many times already, but Thank you!
