  • Phase Fun in the Summertime

    I was importing some old CDs into iTunes yesterday and came across an anomaly on Sly and Family Stone’s Greatest hits. This one is for all you young, budding engineers. See if you can hear the error that was made on the original transfer to CD (top video) versus the correction that they made on later transfers.

    Wow.

    Interestingly enough, the *wrong* version has 420,000 MORE views!

  • LA Moonrise

     

    I was inspired by Ice Cube’s love of the The Eames and LA Architecture to capture a classic California moment.

  • Another Great Review

    My friends and I call it the Hokey Pokey. It’s the convergence of great music AND great people, and it really is what it’s all about. It was a great pleasure making this album and it’s been just as enjoyable reading the reviews. It’s rare you hear someone say that, but it’s true. The response has been fantastic and I’m thrilled people are getting to listen to TD Lind (@tdlind). He is quite a story teller.

  • Lost and Found You

    My latest project (a collaboration with Michelle Featherstone) is now up on iTunes. It’s a quirky, alternative pop thing meant to make you smile and dance all at once. As we were writing the tracks we wondered what the musical center of a Venn diagram featuring The Andrew Sisters, Robyn, and Jellyfish would sound like.

    Head on over and hear the results!

  • X=

    I just finished scoring a pilot written and directed by Stuart Davis for IFC. What a blast! I would LOVE to do more scoring next year.

    Composition and production are such visual processes for me already, it seems like a natural transition/incorporation.

    Now, let’s hope they like dark, esoteric comedies.

  • ¡Cuidado What You Sign!

    With so many cameras in the studios these days, there are just as many waivers to be signed. While most of them are pretty harmless, watch out for the hidden nonsense. You might want to take an extra read through the next one to make sure you don’t get something ridiculous like I was handed last week. Note the highlighted sentence which includes their freedom to libel and slander me!
