OK, so this is my first blog post on this myspace page, and the only real news is that I just posted a song, "Dimensionless," which is just another little mix of some ideas I had bouncing around.  I'm really happy with the feel of the end of the song.  It's a combination of the ametric sounding bass line that is found in the intro and a few other leads.  Anyway, check it out and let me know what you think.

Also, I just got a simple little midi interface to connect my casio keyboard to live, and it really help with writing and playing with instruments.  I have to say, I'm really excited about getting the full version of Live, because I feel like I know the software well enough to do some pretty amazing things once I can put unlimited complexity into everything I create.

One more thing: right now I'm working a few remixes.  One is of a song called "Love in the Water" by Ransomrath, a project of someone I met on the BT messageboards.  Check out the original here.  The other is a song called "A Feeling" that a friend of mine, Shane Hagan, wrote.  I'm super super excited about this one.  The stuff I've been putting together while working on it has been really inspiring.

edit: I decided I'd let you guys know how I got the pad sounds in dimensionless, cause I thought it was really interesting and super simple.  Step one, record yourself blowing into a microphone.  Step two, apply effects (resonators, reverbs, eqs, etc.).  Step three, cut a hole in a box.  Step four, profit!!!  (jk, hahahaha, two jokes at once!)
