Air/Space

Sat, 14 May 2011 00:00:00 -0700

ENCHANTER will be hitting the airwaves somewhere near you soon. Also beginning to work on some new materials and methods for the next release and a live show. Aural Innovations included the song EMPERORS BELT on the latest space rock radio show. Be sure to check out www.space4peace.org to learn about the inspiration for the song. Space is a place for rock, not war.

ENCHANTER

Tue, 01 Feb 2011 00:00:00 -0800

A lot has happened since the last update, over a year ago. ENCHANTER is now out on CDBaby, digital release etc. Got the much more enviro-friendly packaging going for this release. Plenty of artwork to wrap the music in. Got the THOMAS AYRESOL release produced: MAXIMUM COMMANDER. As usual, was good to work with Thomas. This is going to be a busy year for me. But I plan on promoting the new cd, turning over the website, starting a label site for TEXISTENTIAL WAVEFORM, working on a show and getting some video material going. Thats a tall order. Hopefully the next update will be on a updated page and with some much needed new content. Time has been in short supply. The studio has been tweaked to new levels of efficiency. I committed deletion on MySpace which was a relief. Really big disappointment overall. I did meet some cool people there, but basically, the whole operation is dead. A kingdom was sacrificed to become a gigantic pointless billboard for advertisers to advertise to one another. Really pathetic. I wish there was some forum like it used to be to network with local bands or like minds. Oh well...back to the voice in the wilderness.

Irons in the fire

I'm about six songs deep into ENCHANTER and have a few more to go. Also have been working on a THOMAS AYRESOL release to be out soon on TEXISTENTIAL WAVEFORM as usual. A lot of distractions lately. Been absorbing a lot of inspirational music. I should have another live show together later this year. Getting into the whole background video thing takes on a life of it's own. The grass roots solo musician approach gets a little onerous when you expect what I do. Complexity is a pleasure and a burden.

Not lazy

Wow, its been a while since I updated. I didn't even turn the page over for the TRANSIENT release. I guess I was focused on shows and so forth. I have also been busy getting some releases done on the TEXISTENTIAL WAVEFORM label. I have been doing some equipment upgrades, which is distracting in a pleasant way. I am also working on my next release to be titled ENCHANTER. Likely out in 2010, but not sure when. So you see, I am working.

Hangin in the Tomato Shed

The Tomato Shed show went off well. Check out the pics and YouTube videos on MySpace. Special thanks to Jason for setting up the show and doing the video work. Look for more shows here in the future. In other news, I am back in the studio starting my next cd. I recently had a great jam with J. Andrew Bobbitt and Thomas Ayresol here in GOOD headquarters. There are going to be some rereleases of J. Andrew Bobbitt and Overlight/Underdark stuff on the Texistential Waveform label. Get your stimulus check cashed and get caught up on some of this historical music. Thats right, now you can get it!

TRANSIENT

Wed, 28 Jan 2009 00:00:00 -0800

My new cd is out on CDBaby and soon to be on digital distribution. This is music I did for the Avant Garden show in October of 2008. These songs were recorded live while practicing. Special thanks to everyone at the show that night as well as the supporting artists Thomas Ayresol and Jeff Bobbitt. This is an all instrumental venture. I have another show in Tyler TX at The Tomato Shed soon. So if you missed the show, now is your chance to check it out. After that, its back to the studio for more Good antics.

Avant Garden 10/28/08

The show kicked ass. Thanks to everyone who came out. Special thanks to my brother who ran lighting for my set. Check out the pics and video. Got to open for J. Andrew Bobbitt and Thomas Ayresol, so the whole night rocked. More to come. I am working on TRANSIENT which will be based on various recordings of the set. Thanks to Avant Garden for providing the perfect environment.

Showtime

After years of preparation, I am finally getting around to doing a show. Avant Garden, Friday October 24th at 8pm. Eddie Parsec is DJing and I am opening for J. Andrew Bobbitt with Thomas Ayresol closing the show out. Light show full tilt to boot. I am glad to work with these fantastic musicians who have been a tremendous influence to me. We go way back. We go way forward. This is a very cool venue with a lot of class and great vibes. Don't miss it.

I have gone off about Aural Innovations before so no point in doing it again. It is THE place to discover space rock and odd music in general. A true ear to the underground. There is a nice review on the site now so here is the link :

Eddie Parsec Remix

Tue, 29 Jul 2008 00:00:00 -0700

Check out the EDDIE PARSEC remix of Global Warming on his MySpace website myspace.com/eddieparsec. Its labeled "Artist GOOD". He has some really interesting ways of messing with music and has been inspiring to me. Thanks Eddie!
