Four months of podcast silence felt like an eternity for me, but no longer. The time to take cherished samples and theme songs and make them into electronic madness is now.
Of course, four months ago, the belief was to confine myself to a dark room with the goal of finding magic creative mushrooms growing in the enchanted meadows of my mind. But in such a premise, one is almost doomed to run into something else by accident. Which is why I’m here now.
But rather than spill what magical thing it was that I ran into (and no, it wasn’t Eva Longoria mud wrestling with Salma Hayek), I’ll leave that in the hands of my sonically produced calling card, Magic Junk Radio 6: A New Set of Rules.
If you’ve haven’t tuned in before, MJR can best be described as an eclectic maelstrom of sounds, voices and samples. #6 finds me back to my old tricks, but hopefully I’ve learned a little more since we last met. It clocks in at an all-time high 31:36— with the funk riffs, hard rock beats, and pop culture samples you’re used to. Even some old favorites get revisited through the MJR filters, including a couple guilty pleasures.
And there you go. Be sure to leave me some feedback if you have an opinion. Thanks. Take it easy.

[…] Now it finally has. With the website revised, a new MJR recently finished, a TAGB proposal sent, and Novel 2 on hiatus, the time was now to get back in the paint. It helped immensely motivation-wise that an opportunity to publicly display my work has presented itself. Since that’s something I’ve never done before, it brings me a new experience to absorb… that even if it doesn’t turn out all rosey, I can say I tried. And you know how important that is to me. […]
