Chromaphone -AAS Plug-in

The folks over at Applied Acoustics Systems asked me to create a demo for their new plug-in “Chromaphone”. I use their plug-in Strum Acoustic Session on everything that I use guitar in! So…I said yes of course. The only thing was…I could only use Chromaphone in the creation of the track. (listen to the track below)

Chromaphone is pretty sick! It is very user friendly (especially visually) and you can easily manipulate sounds and make them into anything you want.  It is truly a “Creative Percussion Synthesizer”!

My man @vegasoul heard the track and asked, Why didn’t you do an album? That question has now sparked a project, probably an EP though! With that said it’s time to get to work!

Reflections (at least the name for now):

Beats Per Minute – Flud Watches

I am speechless! I’ve seen portable hard drives in the shape of MPC’s and SP1200′s…this is one I’ve thought of in the back of my mind, waiting and wanting! It will be added to the collection!

Virgin America In-Flight Airplay

I just got my computer back from Apple this evening and it was a good thing I re-checked my email. I completely over looked the email notifying me that “Saturday Night” was selected to be apart of Virgin America’s In-Flight Airplay/Entertainment for the month of December and the file had to be turned in my Monday the 26th. I guess I was half asleep when I first viewed it on my phone.

So…if you’re traveling on Virgin America during the month of December (which is one of the busiest months to travel), make sure you tune into the Sonicbids channel!

Quicksilver Pro Events

It’s been awhile since my last post…I’m still putting things together slowly but surely. While preparing for the next two projects (which is taking longer than I expected), Saturday Night was released as a free download and is now apart of Quicksilver Pro Events along with Rozanski’s “Creepy Neighbors Remix”. The Quicksilver Pro site will also feature a profile page along with all the other artist included.

It will be played during 2011 Quicksilver Pro France and Gold Coast, 2001 King of the Groms France (on demand), 2011/2012 Quicksilver in Memory of Eddie Aikau Hawaii and 2012 Roxy Pro Gold Coast Surfing Events.

I’m definitely excited about this promotional opportunity!

Odd Bloggings

Yesterday I got an email from ma man Chris who wrote about “The Fermented Sessions” awhile back at Les Enfant Terribles. I’m happy to be apart of his own thing at Odd Bloggings.

“Saturday Night” is apart of his Free Music Friday and he mentions some nice things about the track.

I’m honored to now be an “OB fave”.

Thanks Chris!

Adlibs Spotlight (Netherlands)

This morning I received a message via twitter from adlibs out in the Netherlands. They were nice enough to say a few words about “Saturday Night” and mention the last album. Google translator doesn’t do the post justice, however you’ll get the point! Thanks guys!
