Home again, home again, jiggedy jig!  After a year overseas, it is nice to be back. So, once I got home, I realized that an upgrade to my computer was in order.  I completed said upgrade, and have updated the site as well.  I hope that you enjoy the new look.  Many new songs are on the way... true sub killers, all.  I have posted a couple of sample tracks on the homepage. While uploading ...

Okay, so it's been entirely too long between updates, and if downloads and bandwidth are any indication, there are actually people out there waiting for these updates!  So here we go... Finished three tracks here in beautiful Afghanistan.  Not an easy task, I assure you.  We will be releasing a special edition "All Vocals" CD with 5 tracks from "Electronicity" along with an additional 4 or 5 unreleased tracks.  This is a collaboration album between Julia from "Ode To The Marionette" and myself and will be out early to mid 2011.  Artwork is mostly done and will be released under an undetermined name and title.  That's it for now! 

Well, it's been w while since the last update.  Sorry for that!  Anyways, I am working on yet more music, but not in North America, or Asia; this time, I am making what I can in the Middle East!  That said, I hope everyone is enjoying the new album.  I haven't got any hate mail or bad reviews, but my fanbase keeps growing, so I guess that's a good thing.  I will do a very thorough update for the site when I get back to the states in a few weeks.  It is verrrrrrrrry slow going on the internet where I am.  This is why there are so few songs on the music page now...:(  It took almost three hours ...

Electronicity is at the duplication facility as I type this.  March 9th is the target date, with lag time expect to be able to purchase the full 15 track CD by mid-March. Julia, the front woman for Ode To The Marionette and Julia And The Unexpecteds, has contributed a great deal to this album, and it would not be the same if not for her beautiful voice.  I would like to take this time to thank her publicly for a job well done.  Thank you sis!  Now, onward.  The licensing for the Beastie Boys and for Trifonic could not be worked out in time for this release; I have an attribution license, so I AM able to give them to you ...

For this month's RSS feed, I will be including a song from the very first CD US Experimental ever released.  The song is called "Bumblebee Waltz" and was performed and sequenced way back in 1995 on a Yamaha workstation.  This is the first song that I ever sequenced.  It is also the first song I composed each part for.  Most of the samples sound pretty terrible.  Of course, terrible is always a matter of opinion...  Enjoy

Time once again for an update.  First off, the RSS/Podcasts up to this point have been focused on releasing older material; that's all going to change. USX Sound Lab III will be finished by June, so you can expect a much more informative (and much improved) podcast in the future.  Secondly, since USX III will be completed, lyrics can finally be recorded for the remainder of the Urban Kingdoms tracks that need vocals.  Here are the projected dates: Mid-June:   Vocals will be recorded on the remainder of songs that require them. July 1st: Urban Kingdoms goes to manufacture. Early August: FINALLY available online for download/hard copy purchase. Here is a very old track called "Mighty In The Distance".  Very experimental and early example of a ...

The past two months have been busy as hell... I had to go to two boards, and have been working on everything from organizing my equipment to working on Urban Kingdoms and trying to juggle my full time job as a U.S. Soldier.  That said, I haven't even considered my RSS.  My apologies to the ones out there who read this regularly.  I have to go to a month long training session, then more training after that.  I hope to be done by October!  I really hate that I will have to put off doing some of the things that I wanted to do.  More WILL come, that I promise you.  Meanwhile, I dug in the archives and found another ...

Uncle Sam moved me to Kentucky, so it's been busy busy.  Not too busy to start the new RSS segment, though.  It is now in audio format, so download it and soak up the news.
