Ever get up in the morning, only to learn what happened last night? From our new album

After writing/arranging, recording, and mixing the first five sections of
The Wasteland, I found myself a bit spent, and struggling with the final movement, so I took a few days off to back away from it. I finally returned to it tonight, and, renewed, even managed to squeeze an extra track from it. Thus concludes the tour. Enjoy!

Rap song. It's pretty short, so just listen to it. Mind your subwoofers.

This song was inspired by our singer's video chats with her long distance beau. It is on the new Red On Strike album
Her Own Little World, now available for download on Bandcamp.

I decided to rearrange
this song that I posted before to take out some of the crazy modulation and make it more straightforward. What do you think?

The penultimate track from my record "Innocent Explanations" is a Mick Taylor-era Stones-inspired romp with a nod to the harmonic sophistication of Andy Partridge.

Chippy aquatic electro-funk. Somewhere between P-Funk and Drexciya.

A somewhat atonal, arhythmic meditation on something, we know not what. Carbon 7 in an ongoing experiment in collaborative improvisation.

A trace of various examinations of questions I have had about melody, beauty, tradition. This is not the degenerate case, but rather it is about the degenerate case.

For Section III (Track 4) of
The Wasteland, I finally take to the microphone for narration, with my own spin. This movement is entirely a capella, and with two small exceptions, all effects were manipulated by me in realtime.

Next on order from
The Wasteland comes something completely different--no effects, no text, no processing, apart from a tiny bit of compression, and track normalisation. It's one instrument, center channel. Nothing but one man, one mic, and a room. That in mind, headphones
could not be more highly recommended.

From my new record "Innocent Explanations" - a really fun acoustic guitar riff made all the more fun by the fact that I got to record it on a 1963 Martin D-18...

My girlfriend said this would make a good theme song for a new Miami Vice reboot. I'm both proud and terribly ashamed of this notion.

The sophomore track/movement in my concept album/piece, built around
The Wasteland. Finalizing the mix took a bit longer than expected, so I didn't get it in before the deadline for the challenge. Boo. Nevertheless, Expect some surprises.

This is a balls out little rush of a song that I came up with on my iPhone of all places. After I got the first line I realized it was going to have to continue in the same vein so I went over to
AskMe for help. I just meant this to be a rough sketch but I ended up liking the feel of it even though it's ridiculously ragged. The song's a sort of statement of intent, I guess. Equal parts Elvis Costello, Cheap Trick and the Stones, more or less.
