CAC – The War Kitty Chronicles

I don’t have a disco ball hat and I’m not a DJ. But, I was listening to my player as I drove around running some errands. My player is almost always on ’shuffle’. Keeps you on your toes. Here are that last 10 songs that played…
Bobby Rush – She’s A Good’un
Madonna – Love Tried [...]

That Moment Held
That moment was held
For just an instant
Before doubt and talk
And things like life
Got in the way
From whispered desire
A conversation of tongues
A trap so finely sprung
To catch us unaware
In clinging shadows
Torrid
The nature of
Passion
Into the night
With blinding speed
A race to get there first
Reckless with danger
While biting the flesh
For the taste
Of what is real
Then gone
By chance
To [...]

CAC War Kitty – Doctor Jumbo’s Ju Ju
.
With “Doctor Jumbo’s Ju Ju”, I attempt to understate the psychedelic vacillations inherent in a mind bending jungle romp. This is where darkness meets goodness. There is a gray area between insanity and acceptability. The sane call it ‘crazy’. The artist calls it ‘life’.
As Jim Morrison wrote: Break [...]

Ever wonder what’s on the Pope’s iPod… yeah, me neither. But the Vatican has come out with it’s ’semiserious guide’ to the top ten rock and pop albums of all time… published in L’ Osservatore Romano, the official paper of the Vatican.
Here’s the breakdown:
10. “Supernatural,” Carlos Santana
9. “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory,” Oasis
8. “Achtung Baby,” [...]

I was once told that in the arts, and probably elsewhere, that there are no rules and there are no limits. Well, it’s not that simple, it’s not that easy and at the same time, it’s not that hard.
You must be honest in your art and truthful to yourself. I have seen it [...]

CAC War Kitty – Of Being Juliet
.
This is a bit of dark ambient electronica that is meant to be a poem of sorts. ‘Of Being Juliet’ came about after a conversation with a friend… I drank tea and she did most of the talking. I was saddened by the mental conflicts that existed within this [...]

I remember when the iPod first came out… it was status as well as a hip fashion accessory. People thought you were cool if you had white wires attached to your ears… did you buy into all that?
Well Mac Funamizu has a concept design that is way cooler than any ipod and it does a [...]

CAC War Kitty – Mohawken
.
Mohawken: the name means nothing… is a psychedelic romp of rituals based on nothing at all. It is however highly tranced with goodness. The song starts out in Bb (B flat), my favorite key of late, and phases through 4 movements and 3 key changes… following the symphonic style of course… [...]

I love Japan. Lived there for an all to shot while.
Here are some ‘crazy earphones’ from those who know what the Japanese need: Solid Alliance Station. Hook ‘em up to you pod and you’re good to go!
I’m partial to the ones that look like a samurai sword through the head…

CAC War Kitty – Kiss Me
.
‘Kiss Me’ started out with a lyric of ‘you know I wanna kiss you’ and quickly slid into the realm of salacious debauchery. I’ll have to release that version some other time with an ‘advisory’ notice. Anyway, this is just a deep house type song that now speaks for its [...]
