HappyUknowit

Yeah, got few new song ideas that are in the early stages. As you know by
now, these will take way too long to reach completion. I hope they're worth
the wait. In the meantime, I recently did some sax and backup vocal work
on a song from my good friend and former LSD guitarist Gabe. The tune is
a punk/metal version of a well known children's song. Think of something
along the lines of NOFX. Check it out.

Also, I'm on my 3rd version of the well-worn Kicbal Studio. Once a vast
underground lair of home studio wizardry and an occasional doubling as
a guest bedroom. Then as a smaller suburban phoenix office/guest
bed/graphic design studio. And now relegated to a corner of my master
bedroom after our 3rd child Britta took residence. Oh well, hopefully the
music is improving even if the creative space is not.


Thanks for listening.

Love Crazy Baby


That's right. New original song bursting at the seams. You should take a listen!

Lets call it a funk influenced rock song. I handled the lead and backup vocals, sax, synths, drum programming, mixing, mastering. Edward Berriman, my go2 ax man played guitar. Lola also helped out on additional backup vocals.

This was supposed to be finished back in October/November but an early delivery from out latest addition to the family put the song on the back burner for a few months. Lola and baby are doing great, and it's nice to have this music finally complete. Superfunhappymusic!

BTW the image is of Lola when we first started dating.

You should take a listen.

2012

Long time no post. Lots happened in the interim, new addition to the family, new job, new recording studio location, new shoes—the usual. I actually finished a song too. Check it out!

What else, happy 2012!!! Working on a new song that I was hoping to finish last november before the new baby came 4 weeks early, so things were delayed a couple months. The picture below is of me recording some sax parts for the tune.




Thanks for listening.
