remarkably I'm now up to 4/22/09 - having the tracks 100% reviewed by 12.31.09 is definitely a reality... and now that I'm mediafire pro I shouldn't ever have to rectify the files again.

49 scarrzz ready files; 40 file-missing (and most of those are not really missing).

imperfecti

This goes to my lovely daughter, Trinity, whom I have to share with her mom's BF, and it hurts me to do so but such is the live that God has given me. Perhaps this music will someday help bridge the gap between me and wish fullfillment; to provide a great life for the ones I love.

update: .. well so far I'm up to 11.15.08 in updating 85Lives with all functional streaming music. so far 33 tracks have been discovered to be scarrzz-ready, and 37 have been file-missing; of course most of the latter is not really missing, just has to be more intensely hunted for.

... looks like the mediafire issue is resolved; it wasn't just me; turns out all of mediafire was down for a minute!

Thanks ya'll. Merry Christmas.

forgive yourself

This past weekend was horrible. I wasn't focusing on what was important and really hurt the ones I love.
I'm on the good foot now, thank God.

scarrzz-ready

As I begin the year-end task of assuring all 472 tracks are streamable I am adding a new tag; scarrzz-ready for anything, ironically enough, that is ready for the big boy blog.

Just so you'd know.

are you crying?



I get so inspired when my children are here; I turn on the mics and play this, that; everything.

Here's a piece from this weekend.

Gonna take a day off and fix the blog REAL soon, like tomorrow. Organize.

Establish 2010 deliverables.

2010 will be the about creating tangible media; perhaps even slow down the compulsion to constantly create and really focus on releasing the best.

Shower-time.

First track hosted, shared and streamed on Mediafire. Life just got a little bit easier.

This track will be featured on the rhodetripp release; early 2010.
Just went Mediafire pro; ditching FileFreak for good; lost another account... possibly hundreds of tracks out there are missing and will have to be re-streamed... this is work!.

kept



kept incubated for a good 24 hours before being brought to you. I didn't think it was good enough. I thought it was lacking something, I thought it didn't ppop enough (or at all) - and I was right. It's a sound sketch. It's crap.... but I still somehow like it so here you go, perhaps you'll fall to its charms as well.
