Another year, another dozen...

It is New Year's Day, 2018. It's a good day to reflect.

I'm approaching 50 recordings in the four years since taking on the "MechaniCrash" project. I'm still having fun, and pushing myself creatively. I'm incrementally a better musician and producer than I was a year ago... at least a little bit.

I had a moment of moral enlightenment last year, and moved from sampling anything to only sampling things in the public domain. Even the images I use for album-art are of my own creation, or in the public domain.

My trusty old Roland SP-808 Zip-disk-driven sampler finally shit the bed, and was replaced by the magnificent Akai MPC-X, a machine that I am absolutely not worthy of. I can already do everything I was doing on the old Roland, and seem to only be using 0.05% of the machine's ability.

Yesterday I finished the 12th recording of 2017. Besides recording, I expanded distribution. You can now find some MechaniCrash songs on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, Google Play, and Pandora. I pressed a vinyl single that can be ordered here.

Two of this year's songs ("20th Century Regrets", and "I'll Try It") included donated drum-tracks from my friend Krister Friday, from Chicago. Thanks Krister! Keep sending me beats!

All in all, not a bad year. Now what?

Hear all of the 2017 MechaniCrash songs here, or on a SoundCloud playlist here:

Look for MechaniCrash songs on iTunes, Spotify, and wherever-else...

Happy new year!

When it comes to TV shows, the HW-Q80R is [url="https://soundbarblog.com/"]soundbarblog.com[/url] equally as great thanks to its dedicated centre speaker. This means that music not only sounds great, but that dialogue is clear and focused on the action. Whether watching the news, a documentary, a game show, or the sports channel, the three front channels deliver a great all-round performance.
