January saw me travelling for a quick bit, for two things.  First off, was the world premiere of my newest piece of music titled Those Eyelashes Stay With Me, a sweet little ditty for my wife.  This was part of the What Next Festival in Hamilton Ontario. (Facebook is here).  The festival promoters and staff [...]

So what does burning the candle at both ends get you? Unexpected results I guess.  Last week I predicted that I would be writing a slow soft reserved piece about the birth of my son for this What Next? Festival in Canada.  Now I’m working on a raucous burner complete with jazz college chords and [...]

Now that I’ve made it through the hellzone of months 0 to 3 with the little guy, it’s time to start thinking about music again.  Next up on the table for me is a commission for the What Next? festival in Hamilton, Ontario. It will be a piece for electronics and Horn, which also includes [...]

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 [...]

Oh, techno, techno, techno. Is it totally 2006? 1996?? 1986???
Whatever, here’s your chance to own the first official Techno release from Keepalive on the formerly-of-Boston Zero-G Sounds imprint. Digital Release only, so get out your paypal or plastic money and Buy, Buy, Buy. Available from Beatport and other fine online beat vendors. [...]

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 [...]
