Happy New Year!

I haven’t been putting much new content here in the last few months… been quite busy launching the new company. But I did get around to a new holiday playlist, much like last year. Check it out here!

Black Swan Green CD Release Oct. 10th!

Another exciting launch! The dark, shoe-gazy and utterly brilliant album that my good friends in Black Swan Green have written, which I was honored to bring to life with my production, engineering and guitar-playing, will be available on CD October 10th, 2008, and digitally soon after. To celebrate the album’s debut, I will be joining Black Swan Green on stage (on guitar) at Union Pool in Wiliamsburg.

Introducing COPILOT

I’m very excited to announce the launch of my new creative partnership with Jason Menkes, COPILOT Strategic Music + Sound! Please visit our new site, www.copilotmusic.com for more about us.

Black Swan Green preview tracks available

BSG You may have heard me refer to a mysterious “rock record” that I’ve been busy producing. Well it’s for real. The band is called Black Swan Green, centered around the songs, voice and guitar playing of my old friend and mixtape maestro Hugh Crickmore. We have a few tracks that are near completion. Full album should be available by end of summer. I’m really honored to be able to give these songs the care, attention and guitar overdubbing they deserve.

Camping out at a villa in Mougins, just north of Cannes, with my buddy Wilbert Hirsch from Audio Consulting Group in Germany, I met some excellent people from places as diverse as Madrid, Mumbai and LA. Pics here!
