Bacon-tini… Oink…

February 26th, 2009 · No Comments

Yup, love me some Martini.  Now-a-days anything in a ’special’ glass is categorized as a ‘martini’. Really. I recently ran across this in the LA Times… a ‘Candied Bacon Martini’.
Here’s the skinny:
Candied bacon
8 slices smoked bacon
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, [...]

CAC-War Kitty – Freeze

Got a serious downtempo groove going here.  I’ve been working on a lot of different things… mostly, as I’ve mentioned, doing some pop/dance remixes… so, I guess, this is my minds way of getting the balance right.  Whatever, it just happens.

So, chill.

You Have The Power To Choose

February 23rd, 2009 · No Comments

Great ad by Bartle Bogle Hegarty (UK) titled “Crossroads”. It’s all about personal responsibility. ‘Nuff Said.
Very cool.

OMG

CAC-War Kitty – OMG
I don’t know how this all got started… well, yes I do: blank screen. Anyway, very simple beat/loop here with just kick drum, snare, Hi Hat, some white noise, and bass. The bass part is a vocal sample from the acapella of “I’m Too Sexy” by Right Said Fred… manipulated [...]

CAC-War Kitty – Downtempo One

No. No rain today but I was in a downtempo way after working on remixes at 126BPM. I do like dance music (EDM). I just needed to chill.

Sunrise/Moonset

February 16th, 2009 · 1 Comment

Sunrise/Moonset
Sunrise Moonset
Lambs on the run
Lonely days, lonely nights
Lonely just for one
Call me in the morning baby
Lips upon that phone
Tell me that you love me baby
Don’t want to be alone
Sunrise Moonset
Rivers used to run for me
Love forever more
Tattered like a sinking ship
Sirens to the shore
Now I see you chasing shadows on the screen
Tangled like a carrick [...]

I’d Rather Be Blue

February 13th, 2009 · No Comments

I’d Rather Be Blue
Don’t touch me
With you hands so warm and soft
Don’t touch me
I’m better left turned off
And oblivious to what your charms can do
Don’t touch me
I’d rather be blue
Don’t touch me
Don’t bring your lips to mine
Don’t touch me
Don’t let our hearts beat in time
Don’t love me just to satisfy you
Don’t touch me
I’d rather be [...]
