Been a while since I posted anything about my whole learning to swim and bike thing, and I guess since I started I might as well post an update. I’ve been biking now for a couple months, a couple times a week. Still sticking to off-road trails since I don’t […]
Behind the Curtain
So after sitting out a month due to a strained calf, today was the day to get out on my bike and go for a 20-30 minute ride around the park. Beautiful weather for it too. So I get up, haul my trunk-mounted bike rack out to my car and […]
My brother is convinced I must have drowned in a past life. Reason being that I never properly learned to swim and don’t care for having water splashed in my face. The odd thing, though, is I have very clear memories of being at an aunt’s place in Winnipeg and […]
So a few days ago when running errands with my father he blurted out that he’d put my new CD (Malfeasance) into the stereo in his truck and listened to it. Kinda an awkward moment because let’s be blunt it’s not exactly the kinda lyrics someone wants to hear their […]
Using the term “morning” loosely… Crowley wrote somewhere something to the effect of it’s better to sit and fidget for 60 minutes than to mediate perfectly for 59 and quit a minute early. I’ve set the more modest initial goal of 13 minutes, but it’s still fidget central. Nonetheless I […]
So a week or so ago I had a cold, and as I was getting over it I saw a note from Rob @ Hipposonic about the last possible days to track at the old Mushroom being the end of March. I figured I’d be in good shape to do […]
Sitting in the DJ booth at CiTR Radio during 24 Hours of Radio Art, airing the 3 hour long series of compositions I created for this (“Shrug“). Thinking a couple things: 1. It’s better than I thought (there’s usually a gap in between finishing any album and being happy with […]
So after procrastinating for a couple months, because writing bios is my least favorite chore, I finally got a new bio written, just in time to order some one-sheets for the college radio mailout for Malfeasance. Here it, will add some more links into it as things are ready to […]
Well, I guess it’s a good time to look back on the last year. Not going to go into too much detail, it’s all in the blog somewhere or other from when these things were fresh… Kicked off the year with a stint on CiTR Radio’s annual 24 Hours of […]
Well, time for another blurb as to what I’m up to this week. I’ve finally gotten settled into the new space. Got my monitor stands so my monitors are properly set up instead of sitting at chest height on my desk. We’ll pretend that that will make some sort of […]
So I’m working on the next noise piece, and the first segment involves spoken word run through a couple different delays and FX loops over static and drums. Tonight’s Beavis and Butthead moment: Delay FX of one spoken word line, “from either direction,” keeps morphing it into “I need an […]
Mostly been rehearsing live arrangements the last couple weeks, but I’m also starting to brainstorm for the album art for the next release, Malfeasance. Also making the final to-do list, finalizing the track listing, and working on the last couple songs. So… not too much to report in terms of […]
I should call these bi-weekly updates, I always seem to forget one week and post the next. Phew! Got one of my two cover submissions in to COMA Music Magazine, and with 2 weeks to go before the deadline. That was my new wave cover, “Lie to Me” by Depeche […]
Logged on to Twitter this afternoon to see a post from Dave Ogilvie saying that Bill “Kill” Kennedy had passed away today. Bill was one of the best engineers in the business, and a great producer too. Best known for working with Megadeth, he worked with loads of acts, from […]
