no-i-didnt-die

It’s been a long time since I posted so I figure I am due. Couple of things… NaaB did work on another DoD song, but complications led it to be not submitted on time. So we do have another song made, but we won’t be releasing it yet. We’re going to polish it up more since there is no longer a strict deadline on it. But we aren’t letting that late submission get us down in fact we plan to DoD again in the very near future, so look out!

On another note, I might be doing a collaboration as sort of a producer role with Ganymede Radio, but he’s living in the Dominican Republic these days and we’re having some technical difficulties with our different operating systems and what not. But if we get it sorted out I’ve already heard 3 demo tracks and I am really liking what I hear.

And on a personal note, looks like I’ll be getting one of my wisdom teeth pulled next week. Fun times. Oh and I got to go to PAX and check out lots of cool stuff. Hit up the podcast for the rundown on that.

In an effort to keep my reputation as eccentric musical freak upheld, I have picked up some new equipment this weekend.

The Martin DM Mahogany

The Martin DM Mahogany

After years of actively playing acoustics I found out that the secret behind the warm tone I was looking for was not magic, but MAHOGANY! That’s right… I’m picky about tone, and most acoustics just didn’t do it for me. Then one day I woke up and realised the one thing that all my favorites had in common, mahogany. This guitar plays great and sounds very nice too me. I hope to play it for many many years.

And then Ibanez SR 530 Bass

Ibanez SR 530 Bass

This bass seemed good to me. I’m not much of a bass player, but it seems to sound and play good. I got this for playing funky bass in our songs. Because we got a few songs coming up that have a lot of funky bass in them.

And I will leave you with a picture that makes starving 3rd world children cry.
