NEWS: Enchant Remaster Officially Announced
Rumors have been circulating that Enchant was taken down from streaming to be remastered. EA confirmed those rumors in a newsletter today, announcing a remaster—and that the remaster would be done live in the Inner Circle.
Dearest friend and fellow Inmate,
More than a few Plague Rats have reached out over the last few months to ask what happened to the Enchant album after it had gone missing from all the (evil) streaming sites. The first letter surprised me, and I assumed it would be the only one. It wasn't.
What I learned is that I have utterly no idea what work of mine people are attached to, or even aware of—and how far back that thread goes.
The simple fact is, I had taken down my earliest material for remastering. I didn't think anyone would notice, let alone be upset, and for that ignorance, I apologize.
If you are one of those Ratties who misses "What If" or "Castle Down" or "Across the Sky," I have news I suspect you'll be glad of: The original 1999 Enchant album is being remastered...tomorrow!
It happens live, inside the Asylum Inner Circle, streaming directly from Striped Stocking Studio, where you can watch and listen to every step of the process.
And if you're not a Circle member, fear not—the remastered edition will be available everywhere the moment it's finished.
And of course, the cover—which I only possessed in my archives as a 300×300px jpg—has been remastered as well.
I will never cease to be shocked at how many years it took me to realize I'd put my "W14A" tattoo exactly where I once drew "enchant." It seems there is rather a lot I hadn't realized...
While I'm not part of the Inner Circle, I suspect the live remastering is being done, in part, to prove she isn't using AI to process the songs. But it remains to be seen how she's remastering, or what qualifies as a remaster.
I also don't know what she means by original 1999 album, unless she simply means some of the songs were recorded in '99 even though the album was released in 2003.
I'm intrigued!
"What If" Live Piano Version, 2026 Clipped from an Asylum Inner Circle Livestream
Original Official YT Link
NAC, I just wanted to brag that I recently got the Violin promo CD. That’s all. No one else in my life seems to know what that is and even a lot of Emile fans have no idea what I’m talking about.
Is it true only 2 others have been found? Makes me feel extra special :)
.
2 different designs have been found. The purple one (which you won!) and the brownish one.
The total number of copies is totally untrackable. I've seen at least five listings since the first one cropped up.
But you are part of a very, very small club. These things are elusive! Congratulations!!!
someone in the Inner Circle please convince EA to release a high res version of this photo, I'll give you my firstborn if she does

Emilie Autumn on VonPod
Date: April 2, 2026
This interview is far too long to make a transcript, but here the cliffnotes:
EA will "always" live in the Asylum.
Girls Will be Girls will be released "this month" (April 2026).
EA has arthritis in her knees from performing.
About Opheliac, FLAG, and being shackled to record labels:
EA talks about The End Records and how she had to spend "a hell of a lot of money to get... 'Fight Like A Girl' from that label because I felt that that was not a good fit..." (I thought she misspoke here, but she intentionally mentions FLAG, not Opheliac.)
EA has never sold her Masters.
EA: "And sometimes you...just make it happen and sell your costumes and you get your record back."
Opheliac 20th Anniversary:
EA has no plans for anything, but that may change because it keeps getting mentioned.
Music Stems:
EA's Opheliac hard drives are in her closet. She doesn't have a way to open them (at present) with her current set up, but she believes they're functional.
EA does not have the stems for 4 O'clock or Unlaced (the album). She has to rebuild things like 4 O'clock from scratch for the musical.
About TAFWVG Changes:
EA talks about some of the changes that were "made against her will" when she was signed with a literary agent in NYC. The agent came to her with a plan to make The Asylum... a YA Novel for mass release, which was why some of the more mature elements were removed and ages were lowered.
About the Musical:
Delayed due to an ongoing film project EA is working on.
COVID put a hard stop on a lot of the things that were getting scheduled, like workshops. (Even though workshops were planned after COVID hit?)
EA claims the musical will go to London.
A musical playlist exists on YouTube, but she thinks it's private. (Maybe? There's already a playlist that's public. I think she misspoke.)
"Time for Tea" probably won't make it into the musical.
The score has electronic backing tracks and symphonic orchestra portions. EA would like a full orchestra for the musical, but she's aware of the reality that it probably won't happen.
EA is "the lead role for the beginning."
She's worried about understudies being able to sing in the range she's written [for Emilie and Emily]. She acknowledges that she's not a Broadway singer -- the concern comes from a place of her range being weird and untrained, not her somehow being "too good" to replicate.
The Rats are an "ancient greek chorus."
EA has recently been given opportunities to "put this on now" but it wasn't with the right people.
EA acknowledges that she'll have to collaborate for the musical, despite admitting to not working well with people. She notes Scenic Design specifically.
Design isn't currently aimed towards realism.
EA does not want to direct the musical.
Most roles are double cast: Dr. Sharp / Stockill; Emilie / Emily; Head Nurse / Madame Mournington
The musical has a different ending than the book(s).
About 4 O'clock and Trisol:
"Garish light of day" was not an intentional Phantom reference.
4 O'clock was written in a "house in the woods" in Germany.
She was very new to the label (Trisol) and they wanted to make sure she had "sections" in record stores, which required a minimum of 5 CDs for an artist. That was the driving force for the Trisol re-releases, including A Bit O' This & That, Enchant, 4 o'Clock, Laced/Unlaced, etc.
She had no keyboard when she recorded it. She just picked out the notes one-by-one on her laptop.
Future projects:
There are non-Asylum projects in the works.
EA and Marc are co-starring and co-directing a new film. EA is scoring and orchestrating the film, which is not a musical, but very "music-driven." Filming is "coming up."
EA wants puppetry over CGI.
Opheliac lore:
EA had been diagnosed with "extreme clinical depression" but had not gotten her bipolar diagnosis before her suicide attempt.
EA was 25 when she wrote and recorded Opheliac. She was 27 when she attempted suicide / was committed.
EA credits the difference in her performing style with her asylum stay, but reaffirms that Opheliac was written before she was committed.

The Asylum Inner Circle: Listing Updates
EA has updated the listing for the Inner Circle yet again. I've archived it below.
Original Listing Second Listing
The Music. The Myth. The Striped Walls.
The sense that something dangerous and beautiful was always just behind the door.
Now, the Door is Open.
And this time, you’re not just listening from the corridor.
You’re claiming your place inside.
[Claim Your Key]
And now, you get to see how it works…
Twice each month, EA welcomes you into her private recording studio and creates new work live — composing and recording music ranging from new songs to film scores — while you work on your own projects alongside her.
Inside the Wards:
A Culture of Creation
This is where Inmates step into the glow of the gaslight. Not someday. Not when it's perfect. Now — with the drafts still rough, the paint still wet, and an entire Ward full of fellow creators who understand exactly what that takes.
🗝️ Inside live "In Solitary, Together" sessions, you work on your own project while EA works on hers — same room, same clock, same momentum. 🗝️ Through Dream Workshop and proof posts, you turn your biggest creative visions into real plans with real steps — and your progress has witnesses who hold you to it. 🗝️ In the Creative Wards, you post your work — your writing, your art, your music, your performances, your breakthroughs — and you're met with celebration, never comparison.
In the Asylum, creation is not competitive.
It’s contagious.
And no one builds alone.

This is your Key to everything behind these walls.
What happens when I join?
The moment you claim your Key:
Sir Edward opens the Founders' Inmate Ledger and pens your name by his own paw. You receive a personal video commemorating the moment, an assigned Cell and Inmate Number, and a welcome from the Ambassador himself.
Then the doors open...and you begin to explore. EA sends you a message personally. You tiptoe into the Inmate Live Chat...and you find an army of fellow Inmates who have been waiting for you all along.
A small number of Cells remain open in the Founders' Ward of 200.
Those who enter now carry a permanent mark — a golden badge, a Founders’ Ledger entry, and a place in the Inner Circle's origin story that can never be earned again.
These are the Inmates shaping the halls for everyone who follows.

FAQ
Do I need to be a musician or artist to join?
Not at all. "Creative" inside the Asylum means something more than “art” — it includes anyone building something, whether that's a novel, a business, a daily practice, a new way of thinking, or simply a life that feels more like their own.
Some Inmates are professional artists. Some are just beginning to explore. Some are here for the personal development, the Oracle work, or the Keys & Doors Method. All of it counts. All of it belongs. All of it is creation.
I'm shy--do I have to post or introduce myself?
Not at all. You’re welcome to introduce yourself if you wish, but many Inmates prefer to read quietly at first. There is no required pace, no “keeping up,” and no wrong way to arrive.
How often are live gatherings?
EA leads four live events each month, plus member-led events like Asylum Movie Nights, Show & Tells, and co-working sessions that arise on their own.
Come when you can; the Inner Circle is designed to welcome Inmates across time zones. All sessions are recorded and available in the video archive for those who can't attend live.
What if I can't attend live events?
Every live session is recorded and added to the video archive, available to watch anytime. Many Inmates watch on their own schedule and still participate fully in the community through posts, the live chat, and the Wards.
I already have an inmate number--can I keep it?
Absolutely! If you were previously assigned an Inmate Number, you'll have the chance to register your original number when you join.
Is the Inner Circle private?
Yes. The Inner Circle is a private membership space, not a public feed. Only members can access the Wards and view posts inside.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. You may cancel your membership at any time.
NEWS: Enchant is Back!
At least for now.
The Enchant listing has reappeared on the Emporium for $8. However, it doesn't appear in the music category, so who knows how long it will last. UPDATE: It now appears in the Music category.
As far as I can tell, these are the original files. No remastering has happened.
It's still missing from most music streaming services.
NAC: The new songs... They are amazing... (She hasn't released anything yet, but I hope she does soon!)
For context, EA dropped 3 songs in an Inner Circle livestream. An unmixed version of GWBG and two other song demos. The name of the movie was also sort of revealed.
