ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Dark, deep, groovy, like molasses for your ears, this is a slice of-tech house through my filter; it's my "tech-neeq."
Another episode that has been a long time in the making; this time, it was a combination of technical and system issues, as well as my depression getting the better of me. But here it is, out at last. Like "Impact," you'll probably either love this or hate it, and as I've said before, that's okay; tech-house is not for everyone, or every mood. I absolutely love the deep, dark vibe; the heavy bass; the warped, distorted vocals; and yes, even the sense of humor and playfulness. So, as Madonna once said, "get into the groove." Go ahead, strip down to your underwear, turn the lights down low and the volume up high, boost the bass, and grab a partner (or not, if that's your thang). It's time to adopt a new "tech-neeq."
This set is dedicated to Matt Christopherson (DJ Hazmat) for hookin' me up with the hardware I needed to record once again. Thanks Matt!

The third in a four-episode set, "Impact" follows "Freefall" in a progression of the overall arc theme. This is an electro/progressive set. You'll either like it or hate it, and that's probably a good thing. This set was pulled together with a minimum of vocal tracks; I was honestly trying not to…
They say when you hit rock bottom -- after the impact -- there is only one way to go: up. Join the "Ascension."
This episode has been over two years in the making; not because the music wasn't there, but rather because of the loss of my mother. I kept wanting to record; there had always been a pl…
We are, each of us, besieged. Overwhelmed by this and that, problems and circumstances great and small, some of which we can control, and others still both out of our control and uncontrollable. The world hands us lemons, and we make lemonade for a while, until there is no sugar left. The walls cl…
Old songs, particularly the good ones, have a way of hanging around. Catchy "hooks" become the basis for a whole new song, as you'll hear in several of these tracks. Then again, the original versions of other were so popular, or so tapped into the zeitgeist, they've become ingrained in every gene…
