in-vest

i just finished a cd cover project for a non-profit organization called IN-VEST. It is a song written, composed and performed by Ben Edwardsen, he made this just for In-Vest. Currently, more than 400,000 law enforcement officers are not properly protected with bulletproof vests. With the help of people in communities throughout the United States, In-Vest USA, a not-for-profit organization, helps equip officers.

and made the cd cover for it.

PEELANDER-Z and MAN MAN

i went to the ottobar last night to see philly based band called 'MAN MAN'. 'Double Dagger' was opening for them so i knew that it was gonna be an awesome night. But what caught me with surprise was PEELANDER-Z. When i get to the Ottobar, my friend Chris, from the band "two if by sea", told me that this japanese band called PEELANDER-Z was playing upstairs. I decided to go upstairs and it was an amazing experience.

this is not from the ottobar performance but this exactly what happened, wait till 1.55 that is where it gets interesting and awesome:





and of course MAN MAN:





check them out and be inspired!!!

trying to...

... get in the groove of doing work again. It has been a challenge since i have moved. Trying to set my studio and trying to get used to a new environment have been challenging. And i know this piece is not the best work i have done but i am still posting it to so that you know that i am still alive and well.
