So…  I’m back from Hawaii, I had a wicked time! Pete (Bassbin) and I had a great set; the crowd and venue were awesome. Thanks again to Chris and Alan from Global Dance Festival for bringing us out!

I could definitely move to Hawaii, it just has such a magical atmosphere. The weather, lighting and super chill/cool people are all just... very relaxing. I’m going back for a wedding in October and am going to spend time on some of the other islands. Do you hear me Hawaiian promoters? I’ll be there in October for a wedding… wink-wink, nudge-nudge! ;)

On the studio note: DJ Dan and I just did a more “club” oriented remix of “Operator” (one of the tracks we co-produced for his forthcoming album). The other is a remake of “More Bounce to the Ounce”, which is a lot of fun. I also just wrote a new Uberzone track called “I No You” and am currently working on the B-Side so I can make it the first release on “Gizmonik”. "Right Now" (the track on my page co-written with Lee Coombs) will finally be seeing the light on Lot49 as a single and on Lee Coombs new artist record. I'll have release dates soon.

On the production/mixing note, Adam Freeland’s new record “Cope” is on the horizon… I mixed 7 tracks for that record and have been doing a lot of mixing for Alex Metric as well as Lee Coombs. Been a busy last half year! Much more to come... mulling the idea of doing another Uberzone album...

I'm bringing you all with me!!! :)

I'm doing a little mockumentary that will show you what its like to go on the road with me. From the early-ass wake ups to the looooong travel/flights to the joy of the show. This is the first time I've done anything like this but I figured this'd be the perfect opportunity. I'll edit and post it when I get back next week sometime.

Adios!

!Q! uberzone

In Seville, Spain right now getting ready for my show tomorrow! :) Can't wait, it's gonna be dope. ;)

I LOVE it here, the people, culture, architecture, food... everything- beautiful. The peeps here really now how to enjoy life.

Hope to see you all soon as I make my rounds this spring/summer. I'll be adding more dates soon and getting those studio trax out!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

I've just posted some upcoming tour dates for this Spring, there's more to come soon! Be sure to check back from time to time to see what dates I've added!

I'm also playing a couple special shows with Bassbin Twins in San Francisco and Denver. We just played a show together in Seattle and had a wicked time so keep an eye out for more of these dates as well. :)

OK, first blog in a long time....

Let's see...

I'm back in the studio doing some work with DJ Dan on one project, Lee Coombs on another. The tracks I'm doing with Dan are for his artist album, it's gonna be fun! The track I did with Lee is called Heavy Mental and will be coming out on his artist album and an EP with another track on the flip. It's Mental!

I'm also hard at work doing the remix EP of "Ideology" called "Remixology" that will take quite a different stab at the tracks on Ideology. It'll also feature a few remixes by other artists. I'll post more info about the remix EP when it's getting close to being done...

hhhmmmm...I'm starting a super-secret side project on a different tip. More to come on this channel later...

I'll also be adding more tour dates soon!

That's it for now!

There's a little teazer of "Ideology", my forthcoming album on the MySpace profile!!! Check it out! It's out next week!

XOQ

Well peeps... I'm very happy to announce that I turned in "Ideology" for production today. I'm a bit late on my delivery, sorry to say... so the release is actually going to be August 21st now. Please don't kill me... I did my best but I AM a perennial perfectionist, I'm afraid.

I'm very pleased with it, though. I was driving in the car today (delivering the production master to Tom from the label), listening to it as an album for the first time. I could actually hear all the work that went into it. Wow... making an album is VERY difficult, probably the most challenging creative endeavor I've ever tackled. It's harder than I would've ever thought... and not in the ways one would think. The trouble is, it's music on such a grand scale that it's easy to lose your way. By the time you finish the last track you already want to go back and start tinkering with the first track again. I knew what to look for this time, though, having done it once before so I feel like I'm a lot closer to my vision this time around.

Just a quick little report now that I've been let out of the studio.

Best,

!Q!
