New Music Giveaway!
Edit: Contest Closed
--
Today I am very excited to be featuring a friend and musician who's music I absolutely love! He recently came out with a new album, and at the end of this post I'll give you a chance to win it!
Daniel Jorgensen's interest in electronic and ambient music has been a longtime in forming. Percussion lessons from his father as a child led to a degree in music and percussion. After graduation he continues to follow his creative spirit as a composer, and works with the band Owl City as the music director. I met Dan in university, where we played together in the school wind symphony (I played trombone, he played percussion).
He releases music both under his name and under the name "Carinthia," which is the name of a small province in Austria where he grew up.
I love all three of his albums, and I listen to each one pretty much every morning to help get the day started right. His music is a perfect blend of peace and beauty. Here's a clip of my favorite song from his new album:
Not only does Dan write great music, but he's also generously given me a copy of his newest album to giveaway to a lucky reader! If you'd like to win a copy of "Leaving the Night Behind Us" leave a comment below and I'll randomly select a winner after April 14.

About Me
Hi There! I’m Marisa Lerin and you’ll see me around at DigitalScrapbook.com a lot. I started this site in 2010 soon after I discovered a new love in digital scrapbooking. DigitalScrapbook.com has gone through some significant changes since that time and it’s grown into this lovely community site you are seeing now. I am daily surprised by the turn of life’s events that has led me down this path. If you're new to the site, welcome! Here are a few tidbits about me that I hope will help you get to know me better!
I’m originally from Minnesota, USA, but spent a good chunk of my childhood living abroad (in Bolivia and Hong Kong). I returned to Minnesota to attend university, got married and then moved overseas again (Korea, then Jordan and 1 year of traveling). My designs are heavily influenced by these many nomadic years. I am currently back in the USA, now living in the great state of Oregon!
I have no official training for what I’m doing, since I decided very wisely (haha) to study physics in university. I am always learning new things about digital scrapbooking, and this community has been immensely helpful for that!
If I manage to stop digital scrapbooking you will probably find me watching TV, reading or baking. I also enjoy writing for the blog here at DigitalScrapbook.com where I talk about whatever happens to be catching my fancy at the moment.
