I didn't mention this before, i got nominated for the Alpert Awards for the Arts in Music. Thanks to whoever nominated me! Pretty crazy. (Disappointing to not win, but what the heck.)

Been a wild ride this year. Finally got some reviews on the page for the Mentones Angel City Dust, updated the audio files page.

Starting to work on a future project loosely called Combines—computer-generated sounds and audio playback (via MAX/MSP), live instruments with processing; written and improvised stuff.

First, Angel City Dust by The Mentones is pushed back a little due to an artwork snafu. Should be available soon.


Second, the Mentones rocked (if i say so myself) at Spring Reverb.

Nathan Hubbard of the Trummerflora Collective posted two tunes from our set at YouTube:

Peach Tree

Lighting Bug

Check 'em out . . .

The Mentones disc and artwork have been sent to the manufacturers . . .I think it definitely kicks. Hope we have it by the time we play at Trummerflora's Spring Reverb Festival 2009 in San Diego on 04 April (come on down!).

Happy New Year.

Wacky year last year.

Stuff happened that I thought would never happen in my lifetime . . . and the economy kinda took a dump too.

Still, we try to persevere . . .

Recording the next Mentones CD this weekend - - 13 more tunes of fun and games. Hope to have it out in March or so.

Hang in there!
