Rumba Sunset.

just watching the sun going down on my deck and wondering why i have this book with 2 notes to myself in it that tell me 'do not read this book' again.

recently i heard some rumba music from the Congo playing in a serbian taxi driver's tape deck. this guy knew his music and the african rumba has stuck itself inside my head for a while now. no surprise then that watching the sun go down and picking away at my guitar, this little african tune made it's way out of my head.

My Guitar Gently Weeps

...tuned when i bought it...

trying to stay true to the real african feel, this sketch is only 4 tracks - guitar, percussion loop and 2 vocalizations. i couldn't help but dust in a few fx though i was really just trying to capture the moment of making music out on my deck watching the sun go down. Click hear for the Rumba Sunset song.

i am going to continue posting rough sketches and other audio tidbits on the blog so stay tuned! also, i am beginning to think that someone else has been on my internet! doesn't make any sense.

The New Rap.

i must have been really sick cuz all i did was freeze my cold along with me!

here is a mix from a HatHead Late Show. my friend thomsonster was over and i had this set up on the laptop. it's a slam-bang mix with John Wayne vs. David Bowie vs. Earth Wind & Fire. john has got a lot to say so listen up!

John Wayne

... a new breed of old rap...

suji wants to know who wins. is it earth wind & fire? is it david bowie? john wayne? cast your vote and decide the winner!

i am also back from my show with Wabot-2, the most technically proficient musical robot. we opened the new Disney resort on the moon. Wabot-2's wife showed up. it was the first time he had seen her since the break-up. it really cheered Wabot-2 up and he played a great set.

...the other man...

things are going well here a couple of years in future and I plan on staying for a bit. i think maybe i saw the yoga chick at the local bar. looks like she's still doing yoga - i will have to save her before it is too late.
