Shakin’

ooo, Didja feel the earthquake? I was reaching for a shirt when I noticed they were all swaying back and forth. Very cool.

Inconsiderate Neighbor

June 10, 2005 – 12:21 pm ·

First of all, I had no idea other people lived around me. I thought those other fifteen doors were storage units. Second, this is a bit of an exaggeration. I only play music, like SIX nights a week, and only until about four thirty or so. Not ALL night. Don’t they even have clocks? Third, […]

Rude Awakening

Ah yes, it’s Wednesday, which is the day the groundskeepers come to apply a fresh layer of dust to my car.

music and medium

June 8, 2005 – 12:51 am ·

I’m home. It’s late. Finished my Hell Days, which is what I so cleverly call Mondays and Tuesdays, whereupon I work from ten in the morning until 11:30 at night at two jobs. I’m beat, but before I stretch out and plunge into my latest book (Chris Moore’s “Island Of The Sequined Love Nun”) I […]

Lost Cat

June 7, 2005 – 12:43 am ·

This morning I walk down Martel, across to Fuller, down to Santa Monica to Trader Joe’s on my way to work. On the way, I see this sign. It makes me sad. I pause to look at the cat, and linger just a second, remembering a stray I once adopted named Mooch, and I think […]

Happy Birthday, Curtis

June 3, 2005 – 11:00 pm ·

Damn. No one told me that it was Curtis Mayfield’s birthday today. If I’d known, I’d have tried to make it to the Curtis bash at Little Temple that LAist mentions here. Oh well. Instead I hang out with Joy and Heather at the Hammer Bash in Westwood, where one of Joy’s Showtime coworkers is […]

SFX: Boom Bip

May 31, 2005 – 12:14 am ·

It’s late. I should be sleeping. But I just picked up a couple discs from work that you should know about. One, I’ll tell you about now. The other tomorrow or the next day. Diverse producer/sound-sculptor Boom Bip released Blue-Eyed in the Red Room back in March. The track here is the final cut from […]

Mandala soon

May 28, 2005 – 6:47 pm ·

The audio file has been mixed, compressed and uploaded. I’ll provide a link to it either tonight or tomorrow night. Can you stand the tension? The anticipation? The suspense–? Oh. You can.

A story not about meerkats

May 28, 2005 – 6:27 pm ·

I’m on my dinner break from work. I drive home. I eat something. I want to lie down, but instead, I’ll tell you a slightly amusing story that in no way has anything to do with meerkats. Which is too bad, because I think meerkats are funny. Over a year ago I DJ a wedding. […]

Mandala 05.25.05

May 27, 2005 – 2:03 pm ·

When I fist sign up for to participate in Mandala, Amoeba’s in-house DJ series, I plan on spinning a predictable set of traditional tunes that cover my interests. I figure that way, I’ll offend the fewest number of people. But somewhere along the way, I decide, “Fuck it,” and I set out to spin a […]
