About Me

MyGen Profile Generator

A little bit about me (the musical me)

Music is constantly fighting for a position of importance in my thoughts, actions, and life in general. I am constantly challenging it to prove to me its worth, which it does every day... but do I always see the benefits? Most certainly not. Other things loom in my vision most of the time, and disrupt the flow of music through me. The next time the chance to act as a conduit appears, you will be the first to hear.

Need some of those aging vinyl albums transferred to CD?

I know you have piles of old tapes, records and 1/4" reel-to-reel tapes just aching to breath the air again... But you took your record player to the thrift store and bought a laser-disc player, didn't you? If you live in the Denver-Metro area and want to record, transfer or collaborate, let me know. It's fairly cheap/free depending on what you want/need.

Check out Cherry Sound Studios!

Finally

The time has come for sleeping outside once again. Nothing compares to being woken up by a dove or woodpecker or songbird. :)

Recapping fixes everything...

Someone lovely used to tell me, between sobs, that ice cream fixes everything. This is true on an emotional level, but what about electronics? Hmm... bad combo methinks. Well last night marked the thi...

Synare MIDI augmentation!!!

So I really thought buttons would be enough for this beautiful sounding drum synth, and started building a remote:But that thing is ugly, there is not enough space to solder all of the wires into plac...

Motivation from a... ....Soldering Station?!

So I went down to the local Ratshack and, as a present to myself, picked up the finest soldering station they had to offer. A whopping $50 later, I sat down to evaluate which of my dust collectors wa...

If you read the last one, read this one.

Actually. I was speaking too broadly. I find that there are many instances when the act of smoking takes the time from another act which is necessary at the time. As far as enjoyment goes, I just trie...

"Its not that I dont appreciate what I have been given"

As soon as the words escaped my lips, I knew they were false. It IS that I do not appreciate what I am given. Sure I say thankyou, and express verbally and this that and the other thing, but showing a...
