if you gonna win my heart: tiramisu baby, tiramisu.                                           (....and I wouldn't mind a glass of red wine.)

i am a man with my feet in the sand and I smile

up a mile, there's a mansion

I will evaporate onto another plane

break all the window panes

and float away

you are the son

I am the one

we are the sum

of nothing but none 

you are a change

but I am the same

we are a page from nothing but none

you are a wave

you crash onto my shore and I fall

im not a fan of roller coasters

I will evaporate onto another plane 

break all the window panes 

and float away

(this is consisting of 24 vocal tracks ... will upload stems if wanted!)

I had the "on the road" collaboration on my mind when I recently flew out to Los Angeles where I would be picked up by my cousin Serena Chablis. We would stay at her house in Long Beach until we made the drive to see our grandmothers and great grandfather in Havasu. We would have a good time. Then, back in Long Beach, my good friend Derek Chariton and I would catch a flick and take a drive.

All the while, I would film with my iPhone. 

That was the plan from the plane. I got all the footage I wanted during the trip, came home, edited a draft, wasn't satisfied... thought about doing voice over? No. Music. It needs music.

VWA LA! NH by theboxsets perfectly appears. Ah, I love this place.

This is is my road trip. Hope you enjoy it. 

today I decided that me and my iPhone should be silly. 

I wanted to get more footage where I'm pillow fighting other people or losing a job because I slap the interviewer with my pillow or having a girl walk out on me because I slap her with my pillow or the pillow just coming from off the screen and slapping me, but I mean, I work with what I got. What do YOU got?? A revisioning in mind? I hope so. 

Mostly I hope you laugh. Mostly.

can't seem to resource this music www.hitrecord.org/records/28498

the Rat Anthem inspired me to make music of sorts, this is what came about. 

Found a kick drum from RyanPatrick which is perfect for what I wanted and a remixed my rat poetry into rat lyrics. 

i think theres room for some spoken word in this, or even some more percussion. 

Or maybe a stop motion?

My mind wanders a million wonders. Here are the lyrics:

water it a million times

if it grows, is it genuine?

plant me anyway

we left off composing rain

inside of a city drain

trickle tap our legs 

in masses splash our rapid brains

the past dont matter

so we tap away

and then suddenly I was in love with beatboxing...

I've been listening to a lot of Reggie Watts. 

"passion punch

twinkle touch

relation lust

tangled tongue

and i know 

we get along reaaaaal well"

this one is alllll voices and there's plenty of room for more harmony!!! (course, in my mind there always is)

Here's a beatbox dreamdrip looplust jambox for the VocalMental Choir. It's a little bit more produced than a live version would be, and It's not entirely voices; in that there's quite a bit of guitar layering, as well as a software instrument for the bass, but if even one (or several) of the choir members had a guitar and a loop pedal it could easily be done live. 

The lyrics come from thisistedwells, who had just released the record the moment I went looking for lyrics. I find the words to be very, very beautiful. I may have lost some words and added some here and there during the recording process. Apologies. 

The last stanza of the piece I left out because... I'm hopeful that someone else might do it! :) the end half of the song is wordless and open for someone to do so.

I could never

do what

I just did

do what

I could never

do what

I just did

do what

i could never

do what

i just did

I was thinking about how....

We are multiple sided creatures. Have you ever seen a side of you that's new? Then I figured I'd make a loop song because I love making loop songs and 29 tracks later, this emerges. I hope you enjoy it! If you don't; DESTROY it! 

iphone + boredom + solidarity + theboxsets music = this

I literally dreamed this last night. 

also, special VO guest star = my mother

This song is what a young man hears in his mind as he reflects upon the change DreamShare has brought him. He walks down the city, dreams advertised everywhere. How did it all happen??

Read this script this morning by RosellaWeigand and laughed. SO my friends and I spent the day on this! Hope you enjoy it. :) gueststars: Austin Amelio and Juston Street

music by: Albert JJ 

I took xanLees beautifully written Stendhal Syndrome and sang it over Wunderboys dream-worthy beatsauce. Maybe this song is REAL BIG because it was in a famous DreamShare movie?? Who knows...
