infrequent blogging
sitting at home waiting to go work. I'm a bike messenger by day. at least for now. its fun. except when the cops throw you in jail for riding your bike on the sidewalk over a year ago. I swear i paid that ticket officer. waht? your handcuffing me. hard?!, your being extremely rude to me. what? your pushing me into your squad car. your staring at me while putting on a latex glove? what? i can't have a book to read while i sit in this holding cell, until my mom comes and bails me out? for riding my bike on the sidewalk>? are you serious.?? in canada>?
wtf?
on the good side i've got two shows this next week. nov 5 th in regina. gonna rock it hard with some tech/break beats. mostly dj'ing stuff. some old some new, first 30 min of the set i'm planning an experimental house didge jam. should be cool. i'll bring the video camera, and make alex work for the ride up.
the 7th is a blacklight party me and Alecia are helping organize. the Organic house collective will hopefully play, (if we can find a drummer) free flow dance is an old church. really cool space. jackie, the woman who owns/runs the space is a super cool burning man freak type, we' really dig what she's doing, and are hoping to involve her in this collaborative circus show what we've been talking about,. let you know how things develope. nyah.. much on the horizon,. the chrysalis...it's coming. i can feel it. break free little communal collective butterfly, go, and spread your ideas. pee on the heads of nay sayers.
this is my first youboob post. its a random improvised house(ish) jam. .didgeridoo, cs01, and computer stuffss. bad intro, i'll have to keep working on my camera relationship,. do you like the fake southern accent? it only comes out when i'm nervous, and on camera. (with no physical audience)
which is funny considering how many film and teevee interviews i've done now. (must be at least a little under a dozen).
any ways. (oh you anonymus, random audience) thats it for now. every so often i'll post here again, try to keep my random brain focused, and make posts at least once a week. as things start rolling, and the new years approaches, i'll step up the frequency, making dailly posts by new years. i swear. (ish) ok, well, maybe every other day.
oh, and november is here(ish) its time to liscence tracks under creative commmons, and register the web site. ahhhh....deadlines.
keepin it real. in the digital/

shows show sho
first of a string of shows is done. mostly dj'd some harder beats. went really well. place was dead when we showed up. hardhouse/vocal trance dj playing. as soon as i went on around 30-40 people showed up and went off. i didn't really recognize any of them, but two dudes told me they've been to all my shows in the last year. played out a new d n b track at the end. didn't work out so good. over limited i think. will have to go back, and mix it down again. (secretly i didn't know how it was going to react, , and wanted to hear it on a PA.
this coming saturday i'm jamming out some live looping; didgeridoo and flute effected pads nm beats. official burners decompression party.... dressing up like a cave man, and playing bongos all night. ugg yeah

blog
this is a blog blog. i'm blogging. news with the stuff. four shows coming up. 3 .local. 1 at a decompression party called devolution. cave men and monkeys and shit, we're thinking of going as amoebas. but we'll probably end up going as cave people, as its about 10 days away, and we can only buudget two evenings to costuming;. going to be playing keys, loop triggering, and playing effects didge, and flute, dubby downtempo stuff, should be lots of fun, and a nice change of pace from the 2 in the morning pounding dance floor stuff, i'm still playing around that time, but the pace is different, will video tape, hopefully have some dance stuff going with the show. theres two vj/dj sets up before me, plus a band or two and a dance performance. really looking forward to this one. everyone in the know in saskatoon should check it out. next shows in regina. basically dj'ing some of my funkier psy/tec stuff. then a lounge on nov 14. playing live house beats, plus effects flute and didg. 'nother good one, loop triggering/dj'/keys +fluteboxing, which is the first time i'll be bringing this material out. again going to record/video.
that;'s the stuff i'm doing this month. end of november has other newer plans n' stuff, with the label launch sometime in 2010. thats about it

this is a piece i put together a couple of weeks ago... later on i'll publish a studio list, but i layered a series of very atmospheric arpeggios, playing staccato variations on a simple melody, there are a lot of things i could say about this piece, its a little over limited, but comes through as a clean mix on my monitors, i've only heard a few reviews, and its in its early days,
i've been sharing it through face book, and such things, there are 30 active chanels in the mix, and the parts get fairly complex, its got a good mood to it, and i've so far been getting a good response from it.
hope you enjoy

jamming
pounding out through like a foot of slush. no brakes. an hour left in work, too broke to just take off for the rest of the day, and all the drivers seem to only have learners liscenses. Well,. its back to work i go. I missed being a bike courier.
was rockin on some delay jams the other day, set a simple half time (133.33 /2 = 1 - 60 something)
with a jam patch of layered arpegios, (one goes up, one goes down) and a pretty pad thing, a dark little saw to give it that tech feel. crunched the prossessor hard. (what i couldn't do with a 8 core and 64 gigs of ram!!) and rocked an improv jam that really surprised me. i think the composition is turning out well, i tracked it in my head only, but the movement is comprised of 6 parts, two contrasting key signatures ( i think you call that a sestet) but the crescendo transitions already have a really nice feeling, it should develope well into some nice soundtrackish breaky symphonic tec house. i'll post an early version once i get to recording.
much to do. blog to you l8r

news and stuff
well. its post three. it was supposed to be day three, but life gets busy, and your virtual life gets set aside. so here goes. win it or lose it. say something interesting, hook the audience. or be doomed to wallow in obscurity. or maybe just have you, (oh anonymous readers) get bored and move on. dreaded obscurity, how I revel in you.
thats right. I like obscurity. I like attention, and having an audience as well. but theres something to be said for the anonymous. I mean, look at you (oh anonymous reader) I have no idea who you are, where you are, or what you like. I also have no sense of proper grammer, but more on that later.
Things are starting to boil to a homogenous mix altogether. its less of a blending now, and more chemical.
both in the general collective, and right here at home.
we had our first label meeting. it went well. plotted out our web page . starting planning some interactive stuff for the site. my own personal loop bias site launches 01/01/10. at which point i'll be giving away a track a week for a year. ... we're scripting a music video. we've contracted a videographer. the dance troupe is looking sadly unmotivated though. the committment is there, but not the actual. too bad. i'll keep trying with this group. collaborative efforts always take more motivation. \
yes very exciting. and as a subject to write about...very boring.
so . what to do?
is it a biopic? some strange topic? fiction? wordplays? bitching?
or more rambling?
rambling it is.
