I’m headed off to Chicago to work with the Chicago Symphony’s amazing musicians on their MusicNOW series.  They have commissioned a piece of music from me for two cellos, viola, piano, marimba and laptop.  It’s called Self Destruct, written about stress, and how it either ruins things or creates things.  Those of you in the [...]

Yo kids, just wanted to give you the heads up here in case you forgot: some of my new music is being premiered at Carnegie Hall’s Zankel Hall this Sunday at 3 in the afternoon.  It’s the stuff I’ve been working on with Olga Bell which I’m totally stoked on.  I am actually on my [...]

Yo party people.  I’m working on a new piece with big man Osvaldo Golijov and Accordiopimp Michael Ward-Bergemann.  We’re doing a premeir at the opening day concert of their new Green Space, which is an invite only thing, but you can check it out on-air on April 29th at 2pm.  Jon Schaefer’s program SoundCheck will [...]

I actually didn’t fall off the face of the planet, I’ve just been crazy busy.  I accidentally moved to the Napa valley in California just after the new year, for a really cool film project called Tetro.  I’m doing some Music Editing and writing some little ditties here and there.  I play some guitar here, [...]

No, seriously?  The last thing I remember was saying “I Do” in June.
So what has happened since then? Well, I went to Hawaii and lived on the ocean for two weeks.  Then I did some consulting work. In October I rocked some Olga Bell Supernovas at Bard College and rekindled a love affair with bowed [...]

So, Newbury Comix is turning 30 (i think) and I’m playing a laptop set at their Stoughton/Avon, MA store. My Brother-in-law happens to be the manager there, so I’m heading out to play a set of my slow-core drone stuff. I’ll be hitting it with fellow villain and Zer0GSounds labelmate Todd Gys and [...]

I am absolutely thrilled to have a chance to work with the fabbo Olga Bell (myspace here) for a commission from Carnegie Hall on their “Professional Training Workshops” series. We will be workshopping some stuff together in September in NYC, October at the always beautiful Bard College and then in May we’ll head down [...]

An update on the projects I’m working on at the moment…
Animas Perdidas is this amazing documentary I’m writing music for, written by a friend of mine, Monika Navarro.  (The song “Grand and Sand” in the SoundCloud player is a sketch I’ve put together for the film.)  Anyway, this film is starting to really come together.  [...]

So as a guy that has spent the better part of the last 20 years in front of a computer, I get a little tired of things coming and going. IUMA was supposed to change the world. MP3.com was supposed to be the end all and be all. These things have either [...]
