Words in the CiTi

Hello All,

I told you I’d be working on some more personal stuff over the coarse of the next few months. Well, we all know that tax day is not a good day in America, and for hard working producers. it sucks even more. Getting paid for music is not like getting paid at your job. Your company will automatically take money out to protect themselves. When you work for yourself it’s all up to you. Sometimes, it’s the choice between rent and…rent. So I have done a real good job to try to correct past issues I’ve had with those people, but no matter how hard you try, there is ALWAYS some else to pay for, or tax modifications, or ungodly interest fees. Well, because of my love for our Government, I wrote this song. I was feeling a little annoyed the day it happened to me (Yes this is a true story) so I was able to channel my Sid Vicious side. It’s raw, but that’s the point. Enjoy

P.S. Don’t audit me.

As you all know, Check One Two is in full swing. The band is rocking and we got some real heat coming through. Strangely enough though, as the principle producer of the group, I can’t help but feel like something is missing in my musical life. I can’t tell you how often I have made a song and scrapped it because it didn’t sound like CO2. Looking back, I was really doing myself a disservice because it is obviously something that my soul needed to get out. The trick is balancing the two sides together, not showing favoritism for one side or the other. If I make a track that could work for both, than obviously it’s going to CO2. (more…)

Is it me or were these the worst Grammy’s in years? Excluding the fact that the show is always boring, the performances, which are usually the only redeeming quality were just horrible.

Kanye West’s Stronger was overblown fluff. Sorry Kanye, I saw that performance before, when it was called Tron.

Brad Paisly, did he look like he hated standing on stage? No emotion whatsoever. His voice never left the lower register.

I like mash ups just as much as the next guy, but they weren’t thought out at all. (more…)

I am really happy about this.  I spent a great deal of time on the new site and I think it looks great.  We originally had the site designed entirely in flash but because we wanted more user interaction, it just made sense to move to a content management system, or CMS.  I can update and add stories on the fly but I can still retain all the flash objects for multimedia stuff.  Take a look and tell me what you think. 

One more thing, it works in Internet Explorer, for the most part, but it works SO much better in every other browser.
