About Me


I'm your basic, global love-child. My Dad (on the cover of my first album - see his legacy site at www.wordsinred.com ) faithfully carted me and my Mom and siblings through a dozen different states, Canada, Turkey and Germany.
Being frustrated with existence and teen-hood, I found hope when I saw an image of the Crucifix and suddenly understood the eternal YES God provides in Yeshua (Jesus), King of the Universe.
I was lifted into a profound sense of worship and openness unsurpassed by any earthly phenomenon and thus began my prolific song-writing career!
My Atomsound project, a Multi-Media content gig ( www.atomsounduniverse.com ), conceived in the summer of 2002 provided the launching pad for my music work. My first album, al Panai , was done as a retrospective of years of unpublished music and focused on a hebrew phrase meaning "on the face" or, mystically, "in the breath of" - as in extreme intimacy. In fact, the impetus for pulling together those tunes (some new, some old, some only in lyric form - 21 audio tracks) was to have a unique, personable gift for the good people of Israel during my first visit to that miraculous country in the summer of 2003. Our whole family went - me, my wife, Michelle, my children of ages 1, 3 and 4 and another in the pocket! When we returned to New York City, the lights of the entire Northeast went out! Good times...
But we don't need natural light in this dark world. We need spiritual light. I'm just striving to be among those on the earth who are restoring to first place the first commandment... to be ready for God's choosing - now as a servant in our world of increasing turmoil and, hopefully, later into a rapturous state of wedded bliss with our BrideGroom King, Yeshua. I'm choosing the "one thing" that's most important of all - Luke 10:42!
Check out my album at CDBaby -
I'll also be releasing songs for my new album, House of Invention, here on this page. Peace in the Middle East in Yeshua,
Toma

Toma (aka Tom Chaffer) is it. I'll be working with studio musicians on "AtomSound: House of Invention" and if that album blows up and gets raves and all that shtuff, I would really like to go on tour with a bunch of GODLY men and their families like a bunch of hippies in some awesome school buses fitted for our homeschoolin' famos! Ah, we'll see. Maybe I'll figure out "Live" (Abelton's prog) and do a "laptop symphony" like BT for the billion teens in the far east who dig dance music and haven't heard of Yeshua. Yes.. that would be awesome, too.

I also aspire to make movies (and score them!). MMASFY.com is where I hang out with others who think like I think in terms of the quality and eternal value of the movies that have yet to be made. We want to make films that cause those in the theaters to either be transformed into children of Yahweh, or built up in their (already present) holy faith. The goal is that everyone is regenerated by the power of the Spirit who holds our atoms together!

Chaffer and Cellie Pt 3 - Resonate!
As far as vids go, if you have an iPod / iTunes get me via iTunes here ! Also, here's AtomSound on YouTube!
Above all things, study Yeshua, the King of the Jews, slain by Gentiles for all of Humanity. Study the Word that gives life everlasting (if you're hungry and thirsty for His righteousness - imbued to you by faith - which is a gift in itself - which enters you as you hear Yeshua, who is the Word made flesh, always speaking love to all...) Study His passion. Please understand the nature of this ServantKing, the Maker and King of the Universe, who gave His life for yours to be preserved forever -


Reach for His Hand!

Lust lately?

Or are you nobler than that? (True Nobility... wow... what if all the made-up morals that degrade the human condition were replaced by the dignity and honor the "commandments-empowered-by-Yeshua" can bestow?)

Notice how - even on MySpace - "true" is actually a lie (referring to the EXPLOITATIVE ads on MySpace ).

Awesome video about the kind of people who are affected by the 500 billion dollar industry of the Whore of Babylon - Revelation 18:3-16 - have you been drinkin' that wine? Change your way of thinking! If not for your own soul (which is eternally precious), then for the soul of "Constance" -
