This past month of February, I have been working on new music as part of the RPM Challenge. As you might recall from past years, the RPM Challenge is a month-long endeavor to encourage musicians to create an entire album of original music, start to finish. That means write songs, record, mix, master and mail [...]

Episode 2 : “Maracatu”

So while I spent some time in Ecuador, I was able to take some classical guitar classes and this series I will be playing them for the internet public.
Episode 1 : “Don Eugenio”

We know it’s been years since you’ve heard from the crew over at hellocomein.com, but fear not young maidens and noble gentlemen, the beast has not been slain permanently. After our year-long hiatus, we’ve had a productive month of February, and created the newest edition in the ongoing melodrama: You Can’t Find Your Way [...]

Spent most of this weekend out of town and in airports and hotel rooms. But I did have a chance to mix a bit during that time and spent most of today recording. Here is the progress report:
Half Awake (v4a) — Finally tracked verses two and three… not sure about a few lines here [...]

In the last week I’ve refreshed some interest in a few song ideas I had either started and aborted or just had rattling around but never committed to working on. Here is a progress report on what I’ve got so far:

Well here is a first pass.. I’ll be refining this one more and adding some words soon.

Back in 2007, Hello Come In (Aryn, Greg and I) took part in the RPM Challenge which asks people to spend the month of February (28 days) writing and recording an entire album of music — 10 songs or 35 minutes of music whichever comes first. That album also served as the second EP [...]

Howdy folks.. so this is my first work since my retiring/hiatus after our 12 ep series. A classic aryn tune complete with robot references, standard hooks and even upright bass (though no whistling this time).

Stay tuned for maybe another track from me someday. It is nice to make something again though [...]

One year (and change) after setting out to complete 12 mini albums in 12 months we’ve come to the end. It’s been an interesting challenge to keep up with, and we think we did pretty well despite not completing a single one by the end of its respective month. It was an exercise to see [...]
