It's been a while. The summer weather is fighting to hold on. It's cloudy, but hot and humid. I'm frankly done with the heat. Let's bring on that cool Fall weather! Summer has also been busy production-wise, and I figured…
Hi everyone, it's been a while since I reached out. Still enjoying making music and picked up some new gear (I'll detail below). Glad I'm not a professional musician. After Pandemic Blue (my last album), my creative brain turned to…
Before I start today's blog, I'd like to start things off with a little promotion. And since I'm not sure if people get all the way through these things (because I think this is going to be a long one),…
Pablo Navarro. He stuck around. We go through life and people come and people go. Sometimes we don't realize how much of an influence people have on our lives until they suddenly disappear. Navarro was my band director in high…
Last post was a little intense... Let's slow it down a little. The song is pronounced, "Red" like the color! So now you're in the know... No, it's not some robot from a science fiction movie... Just Red. This song…
My album in production, "Pandemic Blue" is an expression of this Pandemic. The time to reflect, think and create. But it is also an expression of the absolute pain in the @$$ hell we are going through. Wearing masks, being…
Sitting back here and listening to the tracks I have so far, I see Pandemic Blue is within reach. Busy schedules and living life seem to step in and block the way, but it will get there. At least before…
Picked myself up a Cassette Deck from eBay! Remember that technology? Before Streaming, before mp3s, before CDs??? I, like every other Gen-Xer had a pile of these things that we used to escape, and enjoy our music. They were tedious…
You can say it all started a couple of years ago. Before this music, before this website, before the idea even. A street performer, flexing his craft on the Veteran's Pier in Long Beach. And there was my Brother, Tim…
A labor of Love. I would like to thank my man, Frank Fontaine, for making this track magical! Byron Kane, for mixing, producing, lassoing chaos, and making it into music! This will be my last single drop. Moving back to…
Is it really over? Did it really happen? Did we actually get this cut done? Have you ever been at work and faced a mountain of jobs to do that seemed endless, and then next thing you know you're done…
Sometimes as a creator, you kind of fantasize about your work a little. Maybe it will make it big... Maybe people will love it a lot... Maybe you'll make some money off of it. You fantasize about gear... Man, look…
I remember being a kid in a band in the 90s was quite the affair... especially when you had no money. Sometimes it would start with one guy wanting to start a band because he got an instrument for Christmas…
I've been a musician for many years. And have done many projects. I've been playing piano since I was 7. Sequencing and playing around with keyboards since I was in 6th grade. Decades ago! Someone special told me something once…
