AlionLive features all Willma Poppen releases so far!

Heya Folks!

No new song from us so far, but some news you may have missed. Me, alionsonny, was made aware of the fact, that some of the most loyal Willma Poppen fans do obviously not visit the alionsonny Blog and website on a regular basis or even do not at all. And I was also pointed to the fact, that many Willma Poppen listeners do not know about AlionLive at all.

And as I also got to know, that the popularity of the Willma Poppen project is, accordingly to our statistical data, even bigger than that of the alionsonny project, we thought it would not just be a good idea to inform you, here at the nucleus of the Willma Poppen movement, about the following:

AlionLive is a YouTube channel on which the founder and mastermind of the WPP, alionsonny, features biketrips, hikes and some other of his activities. Recently he did a biketrip through an area of Germany, known as the "Holstein Switzerland", to the baltic sea and back. With the exception of one song, the about 50 minutes of the AlionLive Episode "Biketrip to the Baltic Sea - Radtour an die Ostsee" feature all 9 songs released by the WPP so far. So if you want to get a total view on the works of the WPP so far accompanied by some beautiful landscape, nature etc. this is a mustview. There has also been a bit of a trouble with copyright trolls and the dreaded contentfilter of YouTube. Read more about this here. Those problems by the way have been settled. Abd now, much fun with the video:

New song "Strandspaziergang" released!

Yes, the attentive fans of Willma know, that the song has been allready released friday evening, but yesterday I was just a bit too lazy to post that information here. So, what do we learn out of this? Simply: It pays to keep in touch with me, alionsonny, via Facebook. Oooh, you do not like Facebook? Well, your choice ;) For those who are using Facebook, the best source of new info about my several projects is my Facebook page. And there's also a own FB page for the Willma Poppen project. Since the later one is updated when this Blog is updated, it surely makes more sense just to follow my personal page.

Ok so far for the Kindergarden caretaking ;) The new song by us is again a pure community project. Still I did so much of the bits & pieces, especially the production, that if not Thorsten (*wave*) contributed a very nice arpeggiator line, I would have released that song as a genuine alionsonny production ;)

I can hear the non-german listeners shout "What's the meaning of the title and why all of a sudden a german title?". Cool down... the title means "a walk at the beach" and the title is German, because we (the Willma Poppen Team) are Germans. And the title came into my mind when listening to the song for the first time in finnished state. I decided to use more German songtitles in the future, because German language is too beautiful to be hidden behind any other language on the planet... and we have far too much English language in the world. alionsonny becomming a nationalist? Well, if you think so... ;)

Ahh... by the way... YES, we will start a Willma Poppen Blog in German language too soon...

Ok, that was far too much text for a Willma Poppen Blog, so now we get to the thing this posting is about: The new song "Strandspaziergang". LISTEN TO IT GODDAMN LOUD!

Poppin' All Over The World -> We are back with a new song!

Heya folks! Now, that didn't take too long at all. seems like the project is getting some kind of a shape, which is about time since the project is soon 7 years of age. With our latest release, we kinda returned to the original Willma Poppen approach and this time really everyone is happy with the result... not that it wasn't like this all the time ;)
Ok, you are happy, that there is finally a new Willma Poppen track? Shall I make you even more happy? OK: The next track is allmost ready! Just a bit of finnishing work, and it is ready to be released. and you know what that means? The next track will be the 9th track released by Willma Poppen, and this means JUST 4 MORE TRACKS AND THE ALBUM "HEROES OF THE POPP-CULTURE" IS READY TO BE RELEASED! And this means you will be finally able to buy our tracks at iTunes, Amazon etc. and thus you will be able to cruise around in your car and blast the Willma Poppen sound all over the beach. Yeah, enough words. Here's the music:

Mrs. Von Poppen's Funny Mushroom Omelette!

Yeah, yeah, here we go. After quite a time... well you know it: The Willma Poppen Project doesn't release tracks each day, but quite rarely. But for all you very patient folks, here is the new song by Willma Poppen. And this time it is produced by the original core team of Willma Poppen, whose members  traditionally will be kept secret. In fact this is the first time after the release of "Popp-U-lism", that the core founders of Willma Poppen did a track together. There was a time, when it all looked like, Willma Poppen would continue as just another solo project by me, Juergen Wolther aka alionsonny, and I am so glad that, once again I managed it to bring that group of very creative folks together to get a track done. And to celebrate that great Willma Poppren reunion, I did not alter to contribution of the Willma Poppen Crew as much as I did when I produced, mixed, mastered the recent Willma Poppen tracks. Instead I glued the parts together like some badly made Frankenstein Monster to preserve as much of the colaborative spirit as possible. May many of such works follow. Maybe we get a Willma Poppen album out someday... would be about time ;)

And here it is, our new song:

New Song "Popp-Eye"!

Yeah, it has been a while, since we released anything new, but now it has happened once again. And since two of the team members got surprisingly unemployed, at least they will be able to invest a bit more time into new songs, so that not only alionsonny is working at the project as it has been the case during quite a long time. We are very excited and gratefull, that despite the little number of songs we released, our music is quite popular and we get so many encouraging mails from people who want us to continue on our path. we did not get rich and famous up to now, but we have a faithful and growing fanbase. And that is what counts! So here for you: Our new song "Popp-Eye"!

So sorry for the problems with the Website!

Heya Folks!
Some of our fans notified us various times about the fact, that our little Website was allmost unusable for quite a time. That was due to the fact that I, alionsonny, changed some of the PHP code of the framework which is used for several sites and didn't keep an eye on the Willma Poppen site. Now some folks are quite angry against me, and I can understand that very well, especially because I did not react immediately when people mailed that the site was trashed. Well, I didn't know that after we have not published songs for quite a time, there are still people out there visiting the site and concentrated my work more on the other projects I am working at.
But there's a happy end: Today I fixed the site completely and everything should be fine now.

New song "Poppin' on Heavens Door" has been released!

Yes, it was about time that a new Willma Poppen smashhit was released, but due to the structure of this project, it was not possible to put something together faster. Well I, alionsonny, learned a lot from all the confusion and obstacles inside the project and decided to take even more duties in this project as MY duties, which, as a mater of fact, turns this project into a one man project with supporters who contribute just from time to time. This gives ME more artistical freedom and makes this project less dependent on people who seem to not have the time to contribute to it on a regular basis. So in fact Willma Poppen is now MY sideproject. This will definately speed up things and songs of this project will be more often released than in the past years. You'll probably also recognize a change of the Willma Poppen sound generally and I hope you like it.
I thank all the contributors to this project, no matter if they still contribute or not. Even tho I am quite disapointed about some folks who founded this project with me, boasting about how involved they would be and how much they would contribute, I have no hard feelings against anyone of them. It is just that I would have loved it if they had a bit more of a realistic view about how much time they were able to invest. Still everybody is welcome to work with me, to make this project succeed.
But enough about all the structural and strategical stuff, here's the new song by Willma Poppen. It's the last one which is produced by the old team:
