This track is almost 14 years old, but is the result of me getting an hour or so alone in the KIIS FM studios thanks to my old college buddy Mike Madrigal who was doing production imaging for the station at the time. I did the drum loops (sampled…
When I'm in the zone, I dub-out...but sometimes I just gotta blow the cobwebs out by gettin' silly on the drum machine and rippin' on the fret-less. This was one of the latter. It was heavily inspired by the book "Rolling Thunder Speaks"...specifically…
This is what happens when I come back to a track that started being put together in a commercial radio station production studio back in about '92/'93 (post liquid-lunch "creative" time). The rhythm loops were layered then the crunch guitar (courtesy…

This solo studio dub jam was created and recorded in about 8 hours of play time one day. As usual, it starts with a simple drum machine track, then fretless bass, then keys, guitar, then a Balinese kecak drum and a tbilat drum and finally melodica…

This tune was written on the day I bought my vintage Yamaha CP-25 electric piano and returned to hear that Dennis Hopper had passed away. I fired up the gear and cranked this out. The sound of the piano made me feel like Ray Manzarek...thus the…

First track I produced on my DAW...just tryin' to get the feel of thing at the time (no manual...well...a manual, but it's in Japanese...so same thing). Anyway, it's pretty simple...programmed a drum track, threw down a fretless dub line...threw…

Another remixfight remix: I gave Admiral Bob's reggae tune "Evolution of my Heart" a thorough reshaping. Dark dubby tech house, skittery drums, fog of echos, throbbing shadows.

Wow...goin' OUT! Love it...T-rex meets Tom Waits for a beautifully gnarly blues-brawl.
loose...in the moment...in the zone. It takes me to another place...and I'm there.
Nice build...and good changes.
No...this is NOT a cover of the doors...it is a tribute to both The Doors and Dennis Hopper who died on the day I wrote this.
Deep-haunting-dub. Right up my alley.
LOVE the long, winding vocal line...GREAT production as well.
HOly BASS rumble! Clean, deep and groovy. Take me to the beach.
Love it when it really builds up to the hit at about 2:25! NICE!! Killer jam!
yet another great track! Nice dubby vibe.
groovy.
just like I like my chocolate...dark and smoooooooooooth.
nice brooding groove.
Stunning.
I absolutely adore melodic drums...and while delicate...this is one HEAVY and head-bobbin' groove. Nice one...very nice one.
Hey, it was GREAT jamming with you on this! Looking forward to more collaborations in the future!
