Now begins your journey into the mind of a mad man. Well, maybe not mad, but at least a healthy dose of strange. Forever I’ve longed, like most earthlings these days, to start my very own podcast. I mulled it over in my mind for many months until I said “You’ll never figure it out exactly, so just do it chump.” And so here goes nothing. The premise is simple: one man, one mic, one looper peddle set up, one hour. The rest is up to the Gods. I will set a timer, hit record and see what songs scapes I can create. I will refrain from editing, I may end up inserting other musical references, but mostly I will just sing, talk and beat box. I will try my best not to offend anyone but that is just not possible these days. There will be some cursing (it is just too hard to spit rhymes without adding some color) and I may have opinions not widely shared. But mostly I am a nice guy and for the most part it will be a pretty chill space of just mental musical noodling. Please enjoy responsibly.
This is the first episode of what will hopefully be more podcasts. This episode features a few songs and some random discussions about life, memory, and the struggles I face trying to extemporaneously create something I find worthy enough to share. There are moments of doubt but for the most part it goes well enough. I curse about 7 times, but hopefully that will lessen as I become better at the process. Recorded on Friday, May 21, 2021 around 6 pm eastern time. Runtime: 53 min, 29 sec. Cheers.
This is a mid week musical mini-sode, a four part harmophony of random diddies I found by the river at night. Its mostly mouth music and less raps and chats. Wind chimes of the mind. I make no apologies. What we do in the shadows if you will. Recorded a few days after the first episode and before right now after sunset.. Runtime: 14 minutes, 40 seconds. Cheers.
This is episode 2. This episode features a few songs and some discussions about death, health and my recent camping trip. It’s a bit longer but hopefully still a fun time. I’m a little tired and frazzled, but I explain why and make my way through. It’s all a process and in time it will tighten up. Recorded on Sunday, May 30, 2021 around 6 pm eastern time. Runtime: 110 min, 24 sec. Cheers.
