"Musicians must learn to become the opposite of egocentric.... When you become like what I call a radio receiver, you are no longer satisifed with expressing yourself; you are not interested in yourself at all. You will be amazed at what happens to you when this state is achieved: You become a medium."

Music is a dying art form...
Currently recording a new album, that should see the light of day sometime this summer. I have also changed the name of my musical project to "Light Creates Shadow". This coincides with changes consistent with the direction, motivation and the spiritual movement of the project. The new songs will be different, focusing on the art of recording and experimentation of the process.
There is a camel, near the mountains, standing relatively still or stepping along no path, a model for all meditations, and whose blessings, given and received, are not only his own, but yours as well, as may be.
hey kid,we've been thinking about the man and you as well!!! jenny and i flew into your area when we went to calgary and we thought about you as we looked out at the tiny earth below. we wondered what you've been up to these wee days. we miss you back here in penns woods. j/j
hey, thanks for the add. it's nice to hear such good tune pouring out of our little state...when we post something new, we'll let you know. I'd be great to hear from an artist such as yourself.
Perfect reasons for doing things exist in this world, although it seems we never recognize the perfection in those reasons until after we've embarked upon something we very easily might not have.
