this is for scott. may you rest in peace.
taking account
it would probably be a good idea for me to go over the bright spots in my life right now:
- i have lots of time to myself
- one of me and my brother’s tracks got licensed to a love parade compilation
- iTunes is selling my music now, i’m that legit
- my family is alive and well
- i’m almost finished a fantastic book (davin ci code)
- i’m in decent shape
- new music collaborations are in the works with vince, anand, justin, charles and possibly johanna and josee .. damn we could all have a band if we lived in the same city. a techno orchestra. i would be the .. conductor since i’m not a real musician. just kidding. no i’m not. yes i am.
- work is challenging and rewarding
- i finished a new song (pretty much) and i’m uberstoked on it
- i have some pretty kickass friends
- my apartment is awesome and i love hanging out there.
sounds pretty good eh?
music nerd
i fell asleep last night downloading VST and AU plugins and testing them on audio tracks in Eclipse. i am officially a sound nerd. i found some pretty twisted sound manipulation effects. it is absolutely no replacement for good composition but definitely some sound processors that will help set your sound apart from other peoples.
this morning i reprogrammed my alarm clock in my sleep to wake me up tomorrow morning instead of today. easier than hitting snooze, some part of me thought. well that was stupid.
i have nothing to say!
i just thought i’d share that
okay bye

yeah but can you dance to 90’s?
the lucky bar has an excellent 90’s night on monday nights which is good times central. yes that’s right a 90’s night. i know it’s not the first 90’s night like it claims to be, but dude! they have a giant 90210 poster and it kicks ass.
i think that some people dressed up as their favorite 90210 characters and then tried to figure out which character i was. well there is no half east indian half white guy on 90210 that i recall but they all WERE tanned so i coulda been anyone. i had the sideburns going too, yeah pretty suite.
some of the excellent tunes played on monday night:
- Black Box – Strike it Up
- C&C Music Factory – Gonna Make You Sweat
- MC Zar and the Real McCoy – Just Another Night
- Haddaway – What Is Love?
- Technotronic – Pump Up The Jam
I have to admit a wee bit of disappointment because I didn’t hear Captain Hollywood Project – More and More. Oh I just had a look at the lyrics to more and more, ever wonder what he was saying in his DeepVoiceManRap? Yes well I sorta did too. Check it out:
Chorus:
More and more and more, I don’t know where we’re going to
More and more and more, there’s so much we don’t wanna do
’cause without we cheat and we learn from each and every heart affair
it’s without we cheat and we hurt till somebody’s in despair
(rap)
Boom, keep in tune,
hollywood will soon leftt the point,
right to the point smokin’
like it’s a joint, makin’
ain’t got time to be fakin’
it’s my turn and I’m takin’
everything without shakin’
yo here with the bacon
(Repeat Chorus)
More and more and more
More and more and more
(rap)
more and more bam, don’t give a damn
pump the music and jam there’s no time for the problem
not a thought to some, but just make sure you get it
show the fella’s you with it
being prompt you get it, never will you forget it
(Repeat Chorus)
More and more and more
More and more and more
More and more and more, I don’t know where we’re going to
More and more and more, there’s so much we don’t wanna do
’cause without we cheat and we learn from each and every heart affair
it’s without we cheat and we hurt till somebody’s in despair
(rap)
Boom, keep in tune,
hollywood will soon leftt the point,
right to the point smokin’
like it’s a joint, makin’
ain’t got time to be fakin’
it’s my turn and I’m takin’
everything without shakin’
yo here with the bacon
(Repeat Chorus)
More and more and more
More and more and more
(rap)
more and more bam, don’t give a damn
pump the music and jam there’s no time for the problem
not a thought to some, but just make sure you get it
show the fella’s you with it
being prompt you get it, never will you forget it
(Repeat Chorus)
More and more and more
More and more and more
