Something tells me this guy from The Finest Kiss likes me.

I like him, too.
Also, if you head over to The Color Awesome, you can download my demo for "Jet Inside You" which me and the band performed at the Chop Suey show. I hate it when bands play shit that you can't get for yourself, so I decided to offer up the demo now so I won't feel guilty about playing it live more often.
Just wanted to clear up two small miscommunications on my part.
1) The porno album has not been scrapped. I'm still writing songs around the theme, but it might not really be a "concept album" about pornography as much as an album about sex. Would that be disappointing?
2) I noticed a blog post that mentioned that I produced the Shabazz Palaces albums. Not really the case. My hands and sounds are all over those records, but I couldn't dare claim I "produced" them.
That's all for now. I'll do my best to come up with some more stuff to talk about this week.

Coulter's "Sent to Coventry" Free Download
Click here to download Coulter's "Sent to Coventry" for free.
It's December 17th and the wind is creating a huge racket with the metal garage door at MRX. Coulter and I have just finished bouncing the final mixes (or so we thought) of his new album and are about to race back to Capitol Hill before it starts snowing. Just like on previous mixing days, we immediately listen to the opening track "See You Next Tuesday" in the car. We can't help but giggle and dance around in our seats, very happy with how it turned out.
It wasn't until much later that night that the snow began to fall, successfully shutting Seattle down and trapping us on our hilly snow covered island for nearly a week. This was also around the time that I had my first serious listen to the final mixes and began making my notes. Little things I hated, loved, couldn't put my finger on, all immediately came forth in red ink on a small sheet of paper: more of this, less of that, pleas for help, occasional pats on the back. My favorite note is "The Path of Most Resistence - needs to be more awesome."
Luckily, after the snow melted and mobility was restored, we'd have a chance to address all of my issues while recording trumpets (courtesy of the amazingly talented and lovely Peter Lynch) and inserting an upright bass track recorded long distance by Gary Day. Once that was done, we polished off the rest of the mixes and called it "Sent to Coventry". Ten songs that range from white boy soul (a la Orange Juice or dare I say Wham!) to new romantic disco to lush orchestral pop all bound by Coulter's songwriting in peak form. My personal favorite is, of course, "The Path of Most Resistence" which I think we managed to make more awesome.
