A Tour of the Studio

Since I just recently upgraded some of the furnature in the studio here, thought I’d share some pics so everybody could see where the magic happens. Then, as a special treat, a song that Sambo Wilkins wrote (my broseph) but was produced here in the studio by yours truly.

Ideas For Templates

I’m pretty sure I don’t know what I’m doing, but I guess I’ll have to figure it out soon. So here’s some template ideas. Let’s have a vote. Who likes which one the best?

Idea Three, Slightly different

Idea Three, Slightly different

I apparently really suck at wordpress themes. I suppose I should get a good logo too. Arg! Why can’t I just do music and let my manager take care of this!?

oh yeah, don’t have a manager.

And now, a song. Already Won:

a handout

you’ve already won
you’ve already won

Feels Like Home

I’m seriously not liking this current theme. I don’t have time to redesign – and wordpress is a bitch.

Anyway- here’s some latest work. Please do me a favor and wait to listen to it until you’ve in front of good speakers with a decent sub. Thanks!

I’m updating

I didn’t update for a while because I didn’t know there was any love on the site. So if you’re reading this leave me a message and let me know so I don’t feel like I’m talking to myself…

Apparently People want MOAR. Here are two samples I’ve been working on but aren’t finished. A special treat for the ears…

Also weigh in on this topic- forums? A good idea?

Press kits and web designs

This design, while matching my album art, is in need of a serious upheaval. Also I need to make a press kit and get photos and the whole nine yards. My, oh my, so much to do!

Working steadily…

Work on the album is going well. Thought I’d update here. It’s taking on an interesting form, that surprises even me. What exactly is it? It’s hard to say. Pretty sure I’ve committed to album art at this point, but I haven’t yet chosen a name for the album, nor will I until all the tracks are complete.

Will be submitting to a label soon. Cross your fingers. It’s exciting and scary at the same time. Imagine creating a child, just to have the world reject it. I suppose it’s different when you’ve got say in how it looks. But the principle is the same, I think.

And finally, a treat: Dum, Da Mdo

Till next time, G’night.

Welcome to the new site!

The fact of the matter is, many of you who are here now have already been listening to clips and such, but I have officially chosen a name for myself- five nines. Of course, every good domain on this front was taken, so I added music to the end- which most would agree is appropriate.

I’m going to try, now, to get rid of the wordpress kinks and get this running.
