  • July 26th is Plague release day!

    The Taker, The Raygun Girls’ latest album, is almost here, and serves to be the very first Plague release.  Much of it was written during the 2011 RPM Challenge, but it’s been polished and remixed with some excellent vocal appearances by Jacinda Espinosa and A Girl Named Sam.  The final tracklist is still being organized,… (read…

  • I remixed Gregorian chant!

    I have an account on Indaba Music, which is sort of a social network for musicians, but — like many similar sites out there — they host remix contests to potentially get your music (or remix) on an actual album (for actual money).  A while back they hosted a remix contest for Daft Punk’s soundtrack…

  • Google Music: The revolution you’ve been waiting for is (still) not here yet

    A month or so back, Google announced its new plan to take over the world: Google Music.  No one was really sure what it did, but it was made by Google and it had something to do with music, so it had to be good right?  Oh, and there was something in there about syncing…

    teh s3quence 012 – the rapture edition (…or not)

    Sometime before the world was supposed to end in earthquakes and fire I decided to make a playlist to commemorate the event.  No, actually I was just inspired by the #myraptureplaylist meme that @neilhimself started on Twitter and HuffPo’s Rapture playlist (most of which doesn’t appear on mine).  The majority of this mixtape was compiled…

  • On the music front

    Here’s what I’ve currently got going on the music front for me…I thought I’d list it all out since it’s not insignificant: Mixing/co-producing Synaptic Disturbance’s RPM2011 album This is sort of the first official Plague Music undertaking.  Working on this with Geoff from The Raygun Girls who has, thus far, succeeded in keeping me in…

    Random Song of the Day #21: HORRORFALL covers KMFDM

    Is this a BATTLE of the ALL CAPS BANDS?  Well, maybe, but it’s also a new (and for a limited time, downloadable) track from your favorite indie industrial project from the City of Angels, @HORRORFALL (if they aren’t, they should be).  This was one of the first KMFDM tracks I ever heard (besides, maybe “A…

  • Random Song of the Day #21 – Katy Perry edition

    Yeah, you’re never going to see anything straightforward by Katy Perry or other pop-star-of-the-week on this site.  However, I stumbled on these two interpretations of “Teenage Dream” that I felt the need to share.

  • teh s3quence – 011 – #BassLove4Japan

    I’ve been meaning to make a s3quence mix that had stuff from #RPM2011, but I was waiting until I had a chance to listen to more of the stuff that came out of it.  Then the earthquake/tsunami in Japan happened.  Looking at these pictures is mind-blowing, as is the constant threat of nuclear radiation for…

  • Random Song of the Day #20: HORRORFALL – SevenPointFive [video]

    Hot on the heels of the new single you can get from their Bandcamp page, @HORRORFALL gives us a sweet new video to accompany it.  I still think this track is sexy. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAnSD9TrZMo]

  • Random Song of the Day #19: Ben Folds – Saskia Hamilton

    This is an astoundingly excellent video.  And a cool song, too.
