My mind is far too curious; always rambling from one thing to another and so I cannot dedicate this blog to any one subject. Therefore, I bring you my everything. All writings are subject to change as I see fit. I am always learning and improving, therefore some works are worthy of re-editing and some are simply works I've moved too far beyond.

A Winter's Solstice

Through the maddening onslaught of Christmas songs and "holiday cheer" this past month, I felt I needed to put together a personal mix of songs that represented the season for myself. Something blustery and mysterious. No holiday event necessary to enjoy this hour and 20 minutes of music, just a good gray rainy day...

A Little Bit 'o' Soul, Part 2

So I'm still awake and I couldn't really stop at 1, so here is a second addition for your listening pleasure! I know this is nothing original or really even artistically respectable but if I'm remembered for nothing more than the meticulous order in which I set and meshed these tracks then so be it. I enjoy the fuck out of it and that's all that matters!

A Little Bit 'o' Soul, Part 1

Shuffling through my collection of Soul, R&B, Rap and Electronica today I decided there are far too many gems and it's wholly necessary to put them into one place in as fluid and splendid a playlist as possible. And so here we go, over an hour of pure soul in one solid listen. Enjoy!

Love Knows No Borders - Volume 1


Here I present to you a very personal collection of music that has shaped and continues to shape the life of my wife and I, from the tunes that brought us together to the songs which seem to bind us closer in this ridiculous time. Thousands of miles apart and we still share our music as if we were inches apart, it's what we'll have until the day we die. This collection is as much her input as mine (or at least I try to keep it that way) but hardly any of you would know the difference since our tastes overlap so seamlessly. And so please, listen and enjoy Volume 1 of an ongoing collection!

A lot's changed

It's clear to me that purging is necessary and so I give you this: two unnecessarily long and elaborate mixes it's taken me months to fine tune. I thought it was finished (this one mix which has since evolved into two) on August 31st of 2011 and it was on that day that everything in my life changed. And so therefore, this mix I felt had something much more significant underlying and I had to let it breathe so I gave it a Siamese counterpart. Each dealing in some way with an aspect of this radical threshold I'm still coming to terms with. I really can't say that anybody but myself is meant to enjoy them (and anybody who knows me knows just how private I am about these things) but it's therapeutic nonetheless. I'm including no track titles or artists because that destroys the journey. These are meant for long bus rides or as a soundtrack to a much overdue walk with minimal disruption and you won't find dance beats here, sorry ya'll.
These are very much soundtracks, both figuratively and literally, I've taken a liking to dissecting and reassembling for my own dastardly dramatic purposes. To each their part, I've also taken a keen interest in Worldly genres that I felt contributed to the many facets of my ideas and you can't deny these sorts of impregnable sounds once they've taken hold. And so, with no further ado:

and PS, this is all very likely to change. I'm never satisfied with my work. Sorry...
PPS, as I warned, there were small details that needed tweaking in Part 2, but alas! There it is!
PPPS, reworked Skull Incisions and I'm very pleased with the outcome.
