Choose your theme!
You can now choose between three themes on the Altered State Records website. The Default! theme- with a color scheme of white, yellow and black with the good 'ol deep sea diver in the background. Or the two new themes of Black & Pink! with white text and a grungy pink banner or the no format Mobile theme. Try them out- if you look at the top right corner of every page you'll see: Theme: Default! Black & Pink! Mobile! - just click on Black & Pink! or Mobile! link and you'll see the change, if you want to switch back just click on Default! link and you'll return to the default setting. Still in the works are a few more themes you can choose from.

Domain Addition: asrmusic.net
We have had the domain name AlteredStateRecords.com for many years now, and it been years that we've had to spell the entire thing out over the phone when someone didn't understand the words we where saying. Or it would be confused as a plural item turning it into Altered
States Records. So we picked up a new domain
www.asrmusic.net. It is the same site just way easier to say and way easier to remember!

Greg Grant: Jupiter Watches
Organic and original genre crossing rock. Funky, jazzy, soulful, sometimes folky, sometimes electronic; psychedelic and full of feeling. This is an album that has a full sound but doesn't suffer from overproduction. Once again Greg played guitar, saxophone and sang with James Whiton on double bass and Guido Perla on drums. Many of the songs were recorded in the moment, capturing the feeling of three great musicians in a room just doing what they love to do - playing music. It's a rock album, but all three musicians are well versed in jazz and improvisation and this freedom definitely comes through. This is almost like an album and a half - the first ten songs feature the band playing upbeat songs, and the next five songs are just Greg, taking the listener deep inside. In this time of computerization and plastic disposable music, this is an album of real musicians playing real music with a real message. Buy!
