sketch sketch sketch

November 10, 2009

So I’ve been trying to get back into the habit of using my sketchbook.  Last month there was a point where I started getting completely overwhelmed and I stopped producing anything useful, plus i was busy.  Definitely hard stuff for me to cope with.I have since jump started the sketching process, gotten a few rough […]

red frog heaven revisited

October 21, 2009

so i used to have some mp3s of me singing up in a gallery that i since got rid of, and for a long time this wasn’t an issue.  lately i’ve been thinking that maybe i should try to maintain some record of me singing.  i don’t have any samples of the church stuff or […]

monkey on my back? more like an angry dragon with ‘roids

August 28, 2009

It’s being a *rough* time for me at the moment.  I’m relocating (down the street) and packing stuff, dealing with things like forgetting where i left my brain.
I am getting through this… it’ll be with bags under my eyes and some scorches on my shoulder, and i’m powering through by the power of awesome music.  […]

inspiração

July 22, 2009

So I’ve been thinking a lot about music lately. I’ve had a lot of fodder for thought. I did some studying up for singing back in June, the first time I’ve been in front of people as a vocalist in a long time. Factory Seconds did some playing out before that, which was […]

getting back to some semblance of my roots

June 16, 2009

Today is for down home music. At least, this is what counts to me as down home music.
An explanation: my dad is Puerto Rican. His tastes are… varied. Things i learned from my dad were an appreciation for 50s and 60s rock, and “salsa.” Some of the first music I learned to sing […]

Take awesome, throw it together, mix it up, spit out more awesome

June 15, 2009

I’ve been feeling a little musically stagnant of late. That’s a big deal.  It is almost unheard of for me to have nothing i *want* to listen to.
Decided to work on that this morning listening to Sound Roots for ideas of new things.  This was after looking at new posts on Hype Machine and generally […]

aerosmith… mashups

October 1, 2008

So I like to indulge in listening to mashups… for the most part it takes something i feel nostalgic about and… if done well… makes it infinitely more danceable.
There are lots of mashups i don’t like, but the ones that make me happy make me extremely so.
I stumbled across am.fm.pm and while the Janey’s Got […]

i just can’t score

May 16, 2008

Not that this matters to many of you, but the score i wrote?  I had some notation issues in terms of being clear.  I believe the issues are fixed, and i re-uploaded the pdf.  I also got rid of the 32nd note in the beginning, but I won’t change the mp3 until i get to […]

music comp

May 15, 2008

My semester is drawing to a close, which means that the wonder that is the summer and my thesis is about to begin. It’s a little daunting, but pretty awesome overall. I had a book art gallery reception on Tuesday, which was a lot of fun, and one of my books is in […]
