FreeClyde Music, a new independent record label, officially launches with the release of the soundtrack for the cult TV classic, Witchblade. The record label, founded by composer Joel Goldsmith, is distributed exclusively by BuySoundtrax. The first 100 copies of the soundtrack ordered at BuySoundtrax.com will be autographed by Goldsmith.

Witchblade premiered in June of 2001. Despite only airing for two seasons, Witchblade became a cult favorite. Based on the comic book, the show starred Yancy Butler as Sara “Pez” Pezzini, who while investigating the murder of her childhood friend, comes in contact with an ancient gauntlet, which melds onto her wrist and protects her from harm -- forever changing her destiny. It is the Witchblade, an ancient weapon that heightens her powers of perception and transforms into a formidable sword that is one with its wearer. With an arsenal of amazing powers -- and a mind of its own -- the Witchblade is both a blessing and a curse. Now Sara must learn its secrets in order to master its mystery before it masters her.

“I remember mixes where I’d sometimes be hearing Joel’s music for the first time,” described the series’ Executive Producer Ralph Hemecker, “and I’d be utterly blown out by how he infused the shows with a sublime, mystical aura that actually became a huge part of the storytelling.”

The son of composer Jerry Goldsmith, composer Joel Goldsmith’s film scoring career began in 1983 scoring the Steve Martin comedy THE MAN WITH TWO BRAINS. An expert with the synthesizer, early in his career, Joel spent much time assisting his father on scores including, Logan's run, The Reincarnation of Peter Proud and Jerry’s first all-electronic score for Runaway, while scoring episodic TV. Joel Goldsmith’s sound proved a perfect match for the science fiction/fantasy genre and led to his work on such films as Kull the Conqueror, Man's best friend, The Outer Limits and the Stargate SG-1 and Stargate: Atlantis television series.

The Sweetness of You. The album is a collection of lullabies, songs of love for things like birds, trees and family.

The follow-up to Family Fare: Folk Songs for Children and their Families, The Sweetness of You features 16 tracks, including several original pieces penned by Edson, who sings and plays banjo, guitar, dulcimer, mandolin and autoharp on the recording. The album envelops the listener in a loving spirit, perfect for comforting, settling, and soothing children and adults alike.

A native of Los Angeles, Ellen grew up in a musical family with influences of classical, folk and film music. When she was about 9 years old, folk music became her passion, when her mom brought home a recording by Pete Seeger. Learning first the guitar, then the banjo, she became particularly enthralled with the mountain music of Appalachia. This led to learning both the autoharp and mountain dulcimer. Working with her father, the late film composer Jerry Goldsmith, Ellen played guitar and autoharp for his popular television theme for The Waltons, and for the film score of Wild Rovers. Collaboration with her brother Joel Goldsmith, also a film composer, produced the CD Family Fare, as well as contributing guitar, dulcimer and autoharp tracks to his score for the film Shilo 2.

Family Fair Folk Songs for Children and their Families earned Edson a Parents’ Choice Award and a Platinum Award from the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio which raved, “You're going to love this lively collection of songs by Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, and other traditional favorites plus many original songs with catchy lyrics and a sense of humor. Accompanied with guitar, banjo, autoharp, dulcimer, and harmonium, all played and with singing by the talented Ellen Edson. A gem that's destined to be a sing-along hit!”
