White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said that “nothing will assuage” the Birthers. I’ve emailed back and forth with one and I believe that to be a true statement. I think this will continue to waste everyone’s time until the end of Obama’s Presidency. Maybe we can just ignore them. I hope so.
Anyway, on to the music. This is another home piece. I made it in Pro Tools but it’s mostly a Reason thing. I did have a keyboard attached to Reason so I actually played some of the organ parts but I programmed the piano and vibes and drums.
This piece reveals my love for things that drone as well as Steve Reich. Eno rules too. Enjoy it!
Back in action! After a couple weeks’ rest and some much needed R and R, here is the next installment of The Deck.
Here it is, I made it to the halfway point. I’ve basically stayed on schedule, only posting songs 1-2 days late but mostly not late at all. I’ve created 26 songs where only a small few (2) are not really songs, but ambient soundscapes or some kind of whatnot. Not that there is anything wrong with that anyway, it’s just that they are not exactly “written” or “songs.”
That’s how you act, that’s what you get. What did you expect?
I’m skipping ahead to the King of Clubs because there is a king in this song. I’ll come back to the Jack and Queen in the next two weeks.
This weekend I attended the wedding of two very dear friends in Big Indian, NY in the Catskills region of upstate New York. It was a great weekend with good friends and good times. The happy couple are en route to Spain as I type this and I couldn’t be happier for them. They have great families and great friends and I’m so glad that I was able to share in the experience with everyone. Thanks, guys!
The Nine of Clubs is a song with a drumbeat. These drums are synthetic but they keep good time.
This is not a Joker like the other two have been but I guess I’ll file it here becuase it’s not really one of the 52 songs, it’s more of an extra bonus. So, Jokers are all the extra bonuses. Check it!
