Revival of Blog: What I've been up to

Hey all!
It's been a while! 4 years and 6 days to be exact, wow! This one's gonna be a bit long, just gonna bring up some highlights and current events.

Last I had written here was to inform you all of my soundtrack work. Well, a lot has happened since then. On my to do list: a few remixes, a few releases on my label, some keyboards (and maybe guitars and sampling) for Omega Dub Experience, and finishing the more electro-industrial Dethcentrik album that's been in the works for years with Jeremiah Whitman and Roland Battistini.

Remember that remix album? There are many remixes out now, including a some that aren't on Why The Guilty Die Old, like the remix by Chris Vrenna (Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, Tweaker), which appeared on the bonus track edition of Electronic Saviors, Volume 3: Remission:
Or the remix by Occulus that I included on my label's first sampler:
Blank Faced Prophet's been having a lot of fun with sonic experimentation, and has an album of remixes that include work by Dethcentrik and I, it's available for pre-order, and releases April 1st:
For those who are not aware, Blank Faced Prophet is the music of music blogger Aaron Joy, I did an interview with him;


The transcription is available on his blog.
Aaron and I have a long standing friendship that started when he discovered Dethcentrik, he was the first "journalist" to appreciate our art the way I felt it was supposed to be appreciated. I recently sent him a few bootlegs of my latest EP:
More on that, but what have I been doing lately and why haven't I been as active in the music scene?

Those who know me personally know that I love weather, I just can't get enough. I've been storm spotting for the National Weather Service in Pueblo, Colorado. And I may actually be the first person to film a tornado in 360 in Colorado, I have a Youtube channel and a Facebook page for my storm chasing photography and videos. I've been extremely passionate about meteorology and hope to earn a PhD in the field, so yes I will continue to chase, but I will also be more active in the music community again.


About that EP:
My latest EP; Red, White, And Fuck You! was intended to be free protest music released last Halloween, it was essentially a collection of rage to help the American people cope with the crazy election. Long story short, Amazon refused to give away my EP and that combined with the fact that Donald J Trump (of whom I have already expressed an opinion of on this blog) won the presidency, and I got a bit of an attitude and starting printing my own bootlegs. Spotify did put up the EP for streaming, and Google Play is giving out free digital downloads of it, so Amazon really didn't slow me down.

I'll be posting more regularly again, thanks for all the support everyone!
