Oh for God's sake!

The iBook went down again. No kernel panic this time either. Some kind of full blown directory error.

Hopefully I can breathe some life into it at my folk's house over the holiday. Otherwise there will be a lot of swearing.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.

Song of the Week That I Didn't Make

Hey y'all.

Mike at my work got me listening to this today and I've listened to a bunch more since I got home.

It's Sir-Mix-A-Lot's "Posse On Broadway" and it's a banger.

Best line, "cause the 808 kick drum makes the girlies want to get dumb." Yes it does Sir-Mix-A-Lot, yes it does.

Sorry I couldn't track down an mp3, so you get the youtube.

Works In Progress 12.09.08

Here's a new one from the Mood Music project I've been working on.

It's not much, pretty much just one loop, but that's why it's called a work in progress.

Enjoy.

The Long Lost Christmas EP

Alright, so I'm back up and running. Just a little kernel panic. Disk utility and prayer, deep deep prayer fixed her right up.

I wanted to get this up the Friday after Thanksgiving, but better late than never right?

This Christmas EP was produced about 4 years ago for a Christmas art exchange. I got a book Colin Palombi made by hand in the exchange not a bad deal if you ask me.

As I remember it, I made the whole thing while Tom and I were living with his Mom(Dee), sitting at her kitchen table. My Uncle Lanny sends out a mix cd of Christmas songs every year. I took five of the songs and remixed them straight off the cd.

As you might notice it was produced when pitched up vocals were all the rage.

Enjoy it.

Uh Oh!

Something bad happened to the iBook. Hopefully I can fix it tonight or this week.

I guess we'll see.

Song of the Week That I Didn't Make

I was just listening to this on the way home from a long day of work. It's great. Bobby Womack at his best, doing the soundtrack to Across 110th Street.



You guys get the title jam. So jam on it.

Works In Progress 11.25.08

Hey Kids.

I made some changes to the same piece I put up last week, pretty minor.

I'm gonna get back to the records tonight. Hopefully something brand new later this week.

And I'm moving the Song of The Week that I Didn't Make up to tomorrow instead of Friday. Otherwise you can expect that to kick off your weekend every week. But I've got something extra special for Friday.

Enjoys.

Song of the Week That I Didn't Make

This is from Carla Thomas' "The Queen Alone." It's from her time on Stax, which was almost all of her career. That's her up on the banner there at WattStax.

Her pops was Rufus Thomas who had a bunch of semi-silly/really funky dance hits like "Do The Funky Chicken."

I listen to this whole record at least once a week and this song just kills me for whatever reason. Probably cause it's awesome.

Works In Progress 11.20.08

I started in on this one yesterday.

My girlfriend's father had a ten record set from Reader's Digest called Mood Music for Listening and Relaxation. She took it from him. I took it from her. And this is the first piece out of the deal.

Hope you like it.

Smackity Wack...Here comes a blog!

Hey-

So it's my first post.

I'll start it off with the track I've at least come close to completing recently.

Hope you enjoy it.
