A good friend from my high school days came by on Friday night and we sat about the lounge here at Moon Zero XM, drank beer, ate pizza and played music. He illuminated me to Stars of the Lid (how did I miss that stuff?) and much more and I hipped him to Autechre, Loscil … Continue Reading →

Music Mondays 2: Wall of Voodoo
These guys came on while I was in the care and I just had to say something to the two of you: WALL OF VOODOO ARE CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED. Everyone knows MExican Radio and yes it’s a funny 80′s song and when it comes on and we are drunk it makes us titter. Well, maybe it … Continue Reading →
Music Mondays: The Young Gods
Very busy here at Moon Zero XM. So a quick drop of some video by them. They’ve been blasting away with sampled guitar madness that does stuff guitars can’t and the completely rock (especially because they’re Swiss!). They have a new album which I’ve heard rocks.

Music Mondays: Music for Snow
Hey. Blog got offlined due to a billing mixup. Seems we’re getting more snow tomorrow, which is okay by me as we’ve gotten so little.

Writerly Wednesdays: Marko tells you why I won’t self-publish
I wrtie well but on the subject of writing sometimes I am flummoxed. So when someone else writes something so well all I can do is nod and say, “What he said,” then I just link to it. Case in point: my boy Marko Kloos drops science from Castle Frostbite on why he won’t self-publish. … Continue Reading →
Twofer Tuesday: Uhhh…
1) I’m exhausted… 2) Owning a yoga studio is tiring especially if you do yoga… Tweet
Music Mondays: Pale Sketcher
Justin Broadrick has been drummer for Napalm Death, and Head of David and also the mainstay of Godflesh. I lost touch with his music after 1997 or so. Recently the Jesu/Pale Sketcher stuff was recommended to me and I’m amazed by it. Heavy, heavy bass with some elements similar to Boards of Canada but with … Continue Reading →
