Branding

I’ve created a logo for myself this weekend.

I felt it was time to start branding, and a logo is step one in that.

So, here it is:

My New Logo

A Warmup (21 Gunz) [Updated 6:00PM 9/8/09]

Sue Day!

I sampled a single guitar chord from “21 Guns” by Green Day for this song. It’s starting to come together nicely…

Update 9/8/09:
Richee has been kind enough to mix what I had so far for me. It’s sounding AMAZING. I need to keep going with this track and make something of it. It’s one of my favorite things I’ve done in a long time.

Newest Version:
Richee’s Mix 2

Older Versions:
Green Afternoon

Green Afternoon 2

Enjoy.

A Slew Of Updates

As you might have noticed there is a new layout, and some new pages are up as well. Download page is mostly up, as is the contact/stalk me page. More to come.

New music soon. I have some new toys I’ve been playing with that I can’t wait to share.

A New Batch of Tracks.

Few things I’ve been working on lately. All pretty guitar and drum heavy.

Watching Demo
Ting Ting Tong (The Sonic.net Desk Song)

Little projects keep the minds and hands busy.

Album Art

Additionally, we did a photo shoot for the album art for the new EP titled “Sugar, Tease Me.”

Here is the “rough draft” if you will of the cover.

More to come as it happens, but it seems like we are ramping up a release in the somewhat near future. Stay tuned.

Snip Snip Sweetheart Ft Orchestra of Antlers – She’s Gone

Here’s a brand spanking new (and very rough) demo from Snip Snip Sweetheart featuring Derek from Orchestra of Antlers.

This song is very rough, and very far from being done, and will no doubt transform in many ways before you hear it next…

Here it is:

Gettin’ Stringy Wit It.

My Mom’s acoustic guitar found its way into my living room recently, and I spent the week trying to play it for 20 minutes or so each day. Wednesday’s session yielded this recording:

I’m Busy (01/04/09)

As with nearly everything posted here, its very rough, but I like where this is going. I hope you enjoy.

Bang Bang

When Luis came to visit we recorded a quick live demo of “Bang Bang” by Nancy Sinatra (originally by Sonny and Cher). While there is no video (I lied. There is, but I’m saving it for the DVD.) there is some audio. It has no post production other than a little volume bump. I hope you enjoy.

Late Night Rewrite

My good friend and musical hero Luis Zavala (who penned, strummed and sang this amazing song) came to visit this past Sunday and spent some time helping me retune the Snip Snip Sweetheart song “Bloodstained Wicked.” I took some video of the process, and in keeping with my new fangled web 2.0 “behind the scenes” posting things of that nature, I’ve uploaded it to share.

Here’s a quick video of what we were working on:
