Love Your Car

March 31st, 2010 · No Comments

Love your car? Some people do. There is a lot to be said for automotive design… utilitarian on one end and sleek and sexy on the other. Let’s just say you go for the sleek and sexy thing. Would you want it in your living room. Hey, why not.
“I want a 9 [...]

Sounds In Space

March 30th, 2010 · No Comments

My friend Zaelon gets inspiration for his wonderful ambient soundscapes by listening to the night. That got me to thinking… what is the real sound of space. It’s hard to believe that it would be some sort of silence in a vacuum type thing. There is just to much going on for that to [...]

Born To Thrill – The Video

March 29th, 2010 · No Comments

Born To Thrill – What does it all mean?
It’s incidental music. In this case just a sort of background that stands on it’s own… a melody that repeats as a backdrop to wandering thoughts, unclear in its intention but with an underlying soft menacing edge. It won’t cut you but it might wake you up. [...]

Lonely Man

March 26th, 2010 · No Comments

.
Lonely Man
When two paths diverged
In a yellow wood
It was like that poet said
He took the one least traveled
And he never turned his head
Some say he’s gone crazy
Or else he just went numb
They don’t seem to understand
He’s living
On the run
You don’t see that lonely man
Standing on his own
Up against a world
He somehow has outgrown
You don’t seem [...]

Keeping Up With The Changes

March 25th, 2010 · No Comments

Keeping Up With The Changes
I had planned to do a bunch of things but in this world I live in you’ve got to be flexible.
I had planned on releasing a ‘chill’ EP in May… but… one of the songs (Jan’s Wave) has been placed on a romantic chill compilation album due out in May (more [...]

Fast Powerful And Expensive: She’s A Beauty

March 24th, 2010 · No Comments

Fast Powerful and Expensive… yeah, I’ve known women like that. But, I digress…
I love bikes and I really like bike design. There is something elegant and mysteriously delightful that happens when form and function combine to excite. That has happened here with the Vyrus 987 C3 4V, an Italian crotch rocket that is the [...]

Here Comes The Rain Again

CAC War Kitty – Here Comes The Rain
.
‘Here Comes The Rain Again’ – it all starts with a good song and I really like this song written by Annie Lennox and David Stewart, the Eurythmics. It was a hit for them in 1984 and over the past years I have backed up more than a [...]

10 Grand And A Harley

March 21st, 2010 · No Comments

That is some scoot!
If I was in the market for a cruiser (I’m not) and, if I wanted a Harley (I don’t)… well, this new Sportster Forty Eight would be getting the nod. The design is classic. A sort of retro-modern thing all wrapped up in bad boy black.
Add a 1200cc V-Twin engine, 2+ gallon [...]

The Video : Doctor Jumbo’s Ju Ju

March 18th, 2010 · No Comments

Just did up a video for my song ‘Doctor Jumbo’s Ju Ju’ and I’m referring to it as a psychedelic trip via some of Dr Jumbo’s Ju Ju… that’s kind of the way the song unfolded to me.
I wanted to create a world of voodoo mixed with witchdoctors mixed with heathen lust mixed with humor [...]

Drinkin’ Man

March 17th, 2010 · No Comments

.
Drinkin’ Man
Well I lost my truck to the repo man
And my second wife to this neon tan
I’m on a downhill grade, I’m gonna let her roll
My house has just been condemned
My credits shot and I can’t pretend
To understand how I lost control
