About Me

WKXY : (1)Ongoing effort to provide music worthy of consideration. (2)Using life experiences, selecting impact tunes providing a venue of the hearing sense.(3) To enrich or enlighten 3 to 7 minutes in anothers day. (4)Carving a soundtrack of ones day, heightened to an audio experience desired to be heard, just unrealized.(5)great music selection is like putting on the right threads, places or events.(6)We become the sum of all the things we put before our eyes and ears.Bill : (1)People exploring, watching, asking slow, deep questions....Like "What if the letters making up words were really just initials of words? Their true meaning would be unknown, mired in a series of letters meaning ultimately something else." (2)dial Ray Charles and jazz standards, you may find me. (3)Big Band, epic sounds.(4) Life is what happens during intermission riff. (5)Complicating, overthinking, gazing, dazing, seemingly ignoring, pondering, wandering, wondering, always figuring. (6)If I'm not there, I'm probably working on... "How soon can I get from here and back to her?"Browse Layouts
