welcome back

it’s been a while and things got complicated. i put the PBE on hiatus and focused on other things for a while. in the meantime this budget crisis is making hard to make a steady living. along the way there have been a few spurts and false starts trying to get back to making music again but I’m glad to report that I’m stating a new chapter in my life.

classes start Monday and if all goes well i should have a pretty good schedule for making music on a consistent basis.  last semester i had a 5am call time every day with quite a bit more grading than usual that slowed my progress and was very frustrating.

the main news (at least for some of you who i haven’t seen in a while) is a that i’m going to be performing solo or very small group for the time being. the last few years i have spent quite a lot of time making music with a wide variety of controllers. these days my weapon of choice is the Maschine a 16 pad box that is mainly used as a drum or sample looper but i am mainly using it as a 2.1 octave melodic instrument. 

this should give you a better idea of what i am doing and I’m going to be posting more of these on a regular basis and get back to putting on shows pretty sooon
