Have you ever bought a professional quality Triangle instrument?
I have— and I never thought I would. Because you can’t replicate the feel of a good triangle!

If every new album that’s released is a “classic”, what’s the point of giving an album that label?
Can we just be okay with labeling an album “good” or “worth listening to”?
Every collection of songs doesn’t need to be the best ever made to be worthy of attention.

I watched an interesting interview with #JonBrion recently, where he describes records as two different types.
One he calls a “Song,” and the other he calls a “Performance Piece.”
This definition has helped me understand my own opinions about music and song structure.

Thanks to my current career, I’m finally able to invest in the music production equipment I’ve dreamt of my entire life.
Once I get this website up and rolling, my new music project(s) will be announced. I’m beyond excited for collaborations and for what’s to come!

Losing D’Angelo is like losing Michael Jackson or Prince. It’s an immense loss for music as a whole.
I dislike this online trending topic culture that seems to permeate through or society. It feels disingenuous.
D’Angelo’s passing deserves more sincerity and respect than it’s given.

A large chunk of the soul of modern music is gone with this legend. His music influences me everyday day of my life. He’s part of the reason I moved to RVA.
Such a terrible tragedy.

I just watched the Beastie Boys Story on Apple TV+. Although I was never a fan directly, I did recognize their impact on the culture of Hip-Hop.
Their story was inspiring and honestly surprising. I didn’t realize they produced most of their music as a band. Very dope stuff!

I just figured out a recording technique that I’ve unknowingly been trying to understand for almost twenty years of producing music.
I’m so excited I feel like I’m going to explode with joy!
I also feel stupid for not realizing I needed to approach songs using this technique sooner.

I have this new concept for producing songs that stemmed from this editing technique I learned in film class. It’s interesting to see how film and music production can inspire one another.

I’m currently piecing together a small orchestra to play on this new album I’m working on. I’m really looking forward to recording everyone and making some beautiful music! Gotta stay focused on what little joy we can find these days.

The impending TikTok ban threatens to leave the majority of industries with no modern option for marketing new products or sharing realtime information.
The video based medium that TikTok has developed into has become our new standard of interacting with the world. That standard can’t be erased.

This week I’ve been listening to Christmas music for production technique inspiration.
Now I’m online looking for sleigh bells to record on a song.
Bells in general are slept on in music overall, in my opinion.

I’ve been in the process of learning how to mix my music like a band of live instruments, instead of a beat coming out of a drum machine.
It’s taken me a year to figure it out—
But I finally figured out the technique I’ve been trying to understand! I’m sending the first mix for master today.

In order to be a member of Congress, you should be paid minimum wage and required to live at poverty level for a year.
You should only be allowed to use government service available to your income level to survive.
For a portion of that year you should be affected by a simulated disability.

I’m getting into a rhythm creating these new songs and that rhythm is definitely being derailed by what’s happening politically.
I don’t understand how music artists can just go about doing business as usual online, while our country is on the precipice of political destruction.

Buying a high quality microphone, preamp, and hi-hat to record live on the songs I produce is the best choice I’ve ever made. It’s like I’ve been waiting for this my whole life and never knew it.
