So I've been posting less frequently as of late, but it's because I'm BUSY. I'm going to try and get back to posting here, regularly. Here are a few photos from home. Also, just pre-ordered my copy of the Chairlift - "Something" record. It's the best thing I have heard in a while. Stream it and learn.

This is an awesome video, and it's always good to see some familiar Columbia faces. I really like the track "Buckling", that you can stream here. Buy their album here:

Holiday Records posted an old song of mine in their free singles club. You can have a listen HERE.

They have some pretty cool music to check out, and it's all free. I'm a big fan of the Victory VIII album "International Travel Scenarios". Unfortunately, I lost it when my computer was stolen this past Summer, and I can't seem to find a way to get it online, or anywhere.

Thanks go out to him, as well as Adrienne and Clark, and an even bigger thanks for them allowing us to crash at their awesome abode. This was filmed this Summer in San Francisco on a Panasonic VHS camcorder. It was a magical time.

IHAVDREAM

2010-10-05T13:18:00.005-04:00

I have a dream of one day running Blue's Woodpecker ribbon microphone, into an original Roland Space Echo (these are hard to find fully functional and even harder to repair + the proper tape replacement is hard to come by), and finally into the Universal Audio 710 Twin-Finity pre-amp/di. Yeah!

Also, I've been obsessively listening to LA GENTE E ME. It's so beautiful! I have the record, but I wish there were a proper video, or way to stream the song here online. Anyway, this particular video features all things Pele, cats, anything Brazilian, and Ornella Vanoni (...who is Italian). Ornella Vanoni is really awesome, and is mostly famous for L'APPUNTEMENTO (this video is actually really cool), but she was totally in Playboy back in the day too! Whoa! Forill. I recommend the album "a un certo punto" if you can get your hands on it.

SIDE NOTE: I don't think I've ever made a post like this! But, I figured I would share.

I think this is so awesome. If you stick around for the end of Malaika (you should), you'll notice the Lion King theme song seems to be a mostly ripped off version of the aforementioned track. The group is from all over the Caribbean, but was put together and made popular in Germany during the 1970's.

Leopard Thighs by Phillip Oskar Augustine

Hope you like this new jam, it's a free download. It was recorded all analog onto an 8 track reel to reel, using half inch tape, that I got since my computer recording rig was stolen this Summer. I have since replaced everything, and mixed the session down in Pro Tools. I also got a new camera, it's a Rebel K2 35 mm. Here's some photos I took with it, of Clark and I. We are going on a road trip across America, on a livin/campin/drivin/surfin safari!!! We leave tomorrow. And thanks to all of our friends and acquaintances allowing us a place to stay. YOU RULE. :

My friend SAM SPINA, just sent me his amazing new comics. Check them out, they're so sick! Highly recommended:

Also, I'll basically be saying goodbye to this place when I return home. Tom Essex will be holding the HBH down until I get back. Thanks Tom:

This is ink and charcoal. I'm not really fond of charcoal, but I very recently went and bought charcoal sticks, so I figured I would try them out. This is about 8"x10"...it came out looking kind of Marvel Comic-y, haha.
