A Sentence for September (23/30)

It wouldn't really be me "working" on a big project for school without me writing, recording, and uploading a new song ("Oliver Sipple") to the virb.

A Story about Singapore

Maybe it's just the ORU that's all over me, but wherever I look it seems like I find stories about God.

Like the Muslim who converted to Christianity about a decade ago: he first heard about the Christian God from a fellow prisoner in Babylon, then escaped to travel around the world before finding God in Paradise. He was a very nice man.

But more than that, there's this story about the founding of Singapore which I love.

Peace, love, and joy to you all.

[mostly] New Music (virb.com Update)

I uploaded a couple of tracks I've been working on to my virb page, which you can find here.

If you've never been there before, it should all be pretty new to you, but, for those who have the stomach for more, here's what I added:

1) The City-States Tracks, which are "Vaticanae" and "Singapore," which are a little bit mellower wannabe Sufjan playfully serious songs.

2) The Fat Tim and the Secular Humanists tracks, which are a band performing my stuff, doing yet another version of "Listerine" and a cover of the Radiohead song "Creep."

3) A music video for the Fat Tim and the Secular Humanists "Creep" cover, which I'm embedding right about here:




Hope y'all enjoy!

"A Music Video???" Yeah, Something Like That

So, Susan apparently somehow managed to wrangle bootlegged video of one of my ultra-rare live performances out at the McKitrick House. Anywho, I thought mayhaps you'd be interested in checking it out: it's of me performing a newish song called "Miss Communication (; I think you know why)". Since the song has now been leaked by some ne'er-do-well musical pirate ;) , I figured that I might as well pop a "studioer" recording up on my VIRB page tonight.

Anywho, here's another link to Susan's blog, which is always worth a look, and here's a link straight to the vid on YouTube. (btw: the first few words I say, which are kinda lacking on the recording, are something like "I got your e-mail...")

Peace, love, and joy to you all.

Music Lives Now on Virb.com

Hey y'all,

Just thought I'd let you know that I've got a few tunes hosted over at virb.com in case you hadn't already heard. I'll be periodically adding more and more stuff over there, and actually fleshing out a profile eventually. I'll keep you posted here, though if you want to obsessively check for updates there, that's fine with me: we all know that I could use the ego boost from the extra profile views.

So here's a link: Click me for a mind-numbing musical experience.
