I'm a singer songwriter & owner of HOME RECORDED CULTURE, an artist toolbox equipped with a recording studio & screen print shop. I believe in making music for posterities sake & create handcrafted packaging because an album should feed all the senses & IF YOU'RE NOT SPREADING BEAUTY & INSPIRING IDEAS IN THIS WORLD....THEN WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
!
Thanks for the CD! The packaging is amazing of course, but last night I finally got a chance to go for a drive and have a listen... and that's good stuff man! Nice work.
If you make it through town this summer, look me up!
The music message: I just listened to your disc for the first time in weeks and it gave me the perspective I was looking for. Thank you. XO. Your fan, Brian
The personal message: DUDEMANBRA Me and Court are going to Barrio tomorrow night 6.15 sharp (got practice at 8), meeting Joel and Melissa. You and Dani in? Your pal, Brian
thank you SOOO much for the cd and the poster! (and i apologize for my lame-ass delayed response). they're both really awesome, and honestly, when i got those in the mail, it made my day. it WAS my day. it's cool to listen to how you've evolved too, from your earlier music to this one. THANK YOU SERPICO!! you're **amazing**!
I wish I wasn't still kinda sick cause I'd have def preferred to drink all night. Thanks for going all out last night. You killed in every capacity. You have given me the happy by being my friend. Lisa got some good pics. I'll let you know when they're up.
Just got back from Barcelona, and lo and behold a beautiful package from home recorded culture was in my box. I love the package (as usual) amazing!! Thanks for keeping me in mind, I love the new recording, and I think its your best work to date. Fantastic message!!
mr serpe!! well, i wish you well out on the road - have fun with the family!! okie dokie then, let's toast each other's births when you get back, then. gobblegobble, vb
michael, you were the host with the most this past friday night and your songwork and voice are always engaging. most long nights of music make the stage tired of light but you are a trump card...jeremy
we're beyond that point in a friendship where the one fella has to say to the other fella: "kidding" - right? i wanted to "try violence" with someone i can trust. i think the "wouldn't ya, wouldn't ya?" was a little too clint eastwood for my taste. would you agree?
if you ask me for change in the street again, i'm gonna kick you in the mouth with my fuuckkingg feet...both of them...doesn't that sound VIOLENT? Would you were ever to ask me about change again after that. Would ya' ask me for change after that...would ya'? would ya'?
You probably don't remember me, but you were one of the first musicians I ever saw at Javalinas. Then you fell off my radar for a while, but let me know if you get a gig out in the Tucson area...because I will show
