The last half of 2011 until now was consumed with writing and recording. The first musical adventure of sorts will be a retrospective & remix album called
Strange Horses. The collection will contain several songs from the
Music From Earth CD played live in the studio. This unreleased 2009 recording features musicians
Tracy Graff on drums and Timmy Wolf from
Rhinocerotic on bass. All songs were engineered by Neil Wargolet, also a former Rhino sound guy. These songs captured a moment in time after the release of
Music From Earth in which we were playing some loud rock & roll shows focused on guitar, harmony, and drums. Other tracks on the album will be remixes from
Between the Sun & the Moon that push more in the direction of the current electronic sound. I will be working with
BTSM artist
John Hansen on the album cover art. Currently I am meeting with new drummer Cliff McGrew (CMac) to discuss the direction of future live shows with the addition of sequencing. CMac has a great history of working with “drum & bass” DJ’swhile he was stationed overseas in
Germany. We are looking forward to future live engagements with the addition of new people, instruments, and styles. I am currently working with a new music studio (
Amp Productions) on mixing, recording, & mastering. Amp Productions will be assisting in remixing ‘9 Sticks’, affectionately called ‘
James Stix’ due to it’s James Bond sounding strings and cinematic percussion. The next release will follow shortly after….
