Song-a-Week #28 – Late
Thursday, July 16th, 2009It’s late. I’m tired. But… I had to get this down before I passed out on the couch and forgot how to play it. ‘Night.

Song-a-Week #27 – Deaf
Thursday, July 9th, 2009I was on vacation all last week, hiding out in the beautiful mountains outside of Boulder Creek, CA (near Santa Cruz and San Jose). Needless to say, between training, playing with kids, and generally not doing much of anything, I sloughed off on the music-making. Today, while upgrading my MacBook, I decided to play around [...]
Song-a-Week #26 – Chunk
Sunday, June 28th, 2009This week’s sketch is called “Chunk” because I literally just threw the word up. Brain vomit, if you will. I’m afraid it’s a bit Nirvana-sounding for my tastes, but I’ll live with that. I may revisit this one later… add lyrics, re-record it. Who knows?
Song-a-Week #25 – C is for Cookie
Wednesday, June 24th, 2009I know, I know… another cop-out. Jeremie and I did this for my other show, so I figured it counts. Granted, it isn’t something I wrote, but it does reflect my “growing” remixing skills. I need to remind myself that this project is more about purely learning and doing, not so much about what I’m [...]
Song-a-Week #24 – Wind
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009I was working on a completely different song with a completely different vibe, but this riff kept coming out of my fingers. Well, who am I to argue with inspiration? So, I saved the other project and started this one. The guitar tone sounded vaguely reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix’ tone on “The Wind Cries Mary,” [...]
Song-a-Week #23 – Foot Soldier
Wednesday, June 10th, 2009Don’t ask me why this sketch is called “Foot Soldier.” That was just literally the first two words (in that order) that popped into my head when I asked myself, “Hey… self… what the hell are you going to call this thing?” That oughtta learn me not to ask me any more stupid questions.
Song-a-Week #22 – spleeeeejg
Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009This is your brain. This is your brain on Iowa. Funktastic.
Song-a-Week #21 – Wha?
Wednesday, May 27th, 2009Last week was an all-week training thingie at my dojo. I had 6 houseguests and am exhausted. Not only that, but I managed to dislocate a few ribs. Oh, and I leave for Iowa soon, too. So… yeah. All you get is a chord progression. Deal with it. :-p
Song-a-Week #20 – Genius, Baby
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009This is a song parody I put together for my show, Evil Genius Radio. If you’re familiar with it, you’ll see it there, too. Er… hear it. Unless you’re synesthetic or something. If that’s the case, you might even end up smelling it. If so, I apologize in advance. Should you be unfamiliar with the [...]
Song-a-Week #19 – Van Diemen’s Land
Sunday, May 10th, 2009This is a cover of my favorite U2 song. I had intended to attempt singing it, but my voice is not cooperating today. So sorry.
