the long circuitous road that lead to my guitar presence here- I played drums for a high school band called The Motives, who, at a small lakeside resort ballroom called Vasa Park, won a battle of the bands. One of those bands was A Boy and His Dog, Ann Wilson sang lead. We were all […]

We like this one, and keep inching newbie engineering forward. So here is a better mix/master, 8/2020 Re-mastered version posted 5/28/2020 is taken down original post from 9/9/2018 follows After a few darker pieces I did mention somewhat guiltily that the next one would be “prettier”, here it is. Beyond that I’d like to let it […]

Retribute

*edited 4/2021- this link is now a remix, the original was pretty bad, hopefully my limited audio skills make this a little more listenable. Probably not worth the effort but I’m kind of fond of some of the goofy ideas and from those days… same old fun-with-photoshop video. Original 2018 post- Another in a string […]

the description on the youtube page is explanatory, finally decided to put it here too.  

Vith

If Fiona Apple and Trent Reznor had a demon love child (minus a good chunk of the talent) that possessed me for a bit I suppose it would result in something like this. I can’t be held responsible. Synthesized voice intentional, largely unintelligible lyrics intentional. This and all posted music can be heard on my […]

Fourth 4TH

Fourth attempt to make this sound right.. at least to me. Abandoned the nostalgia of lifting original tracks from 90s cassette, remade and remixed the vast majority. At least it can be heard now and maybe I can live with it… Original info here. The indulgences of the amateur, nothing ever really need’s to be […]

** This is a remix completed in 2020. After 3 years of living with this piece I still like it enough to make some sonic improvements** The following is the original 2017 post. Some mood settled in, I was playing with the boxes, ya know, and the knobs on the boxes, then a loop went sideways and stayed […]

07/2021- This was created and posted in 2016, the link is now to a 2021 remix, hopefully sounds better 12/2016 original post- I started this a few months back. My friend Tim Orden invited me to collaborate on a conceptual film, dance, music piece called Anthropocene. Some elements of what I had started seemed perfect […]

4TH- remixed

The short story- Some grungy riff rock I wrote in the 90s. Lifted the guitar tracks off an old cassette and re-contextualized the whole thing… The long story- Enough talk No video, but highest quality audio: Soundcloud- 4TH The same Youtube video with still image above, hosted at Fandalism: Fandalism- 4TH     All posted […]
