As cynical as the title of this blog might be, I have grown so used to it that I don’t really feel like it needs to change. Better to say something than nothing at all. While ‘wasting time’ isn’t necessarily the main theme of my life, the question of “What is a waste of time [...]

This guy Ta-Ku inspired me last month. He did a song-a-day challenge called “50 Days for Dilla” dedicated to the late great producer / beatmaker Jay Dee / J Dilla. He then went on to do “25 Nights for Nujabes,” and talked about it here on Soundcloud: I felt like emailing him to do an [...]

I wanted to publish this comment a guy named Yunuen wrote after reading a few of my posts, namely this one. Not because he’s being all complimentary, but because I want to put up my response to him as a post. I realized a few things about myself in relation to the things I really [...]

How do people come up with this? Think about where songs start from. How often do you say to yourself “I’m going to make a song that goes like this…” and then have it turn out that way? More often than not, don’t creative works just kind of materialize? The best ones? And the best [...]
“I’ll whip up some dip if you wanna cut the carrots.” “Good. You got nuts?” “I got mixed nuts.” “Great. And what is this, cheese?” “Yeah. Oh, let’s go get a bottle of something, too.” “Nice, should we get two?” “I don’t know, do we need two? Let’s do one and then another when we’ve [...]
Would be a quote from me if I were addressing a bunch of young artistic types in an auditorium somewhere… But really, that is how I feel. That is what I keep telling myself. I don’t want to limit myself of confuse things by choosing a medium. I started NaNoWriMo basically thinking “I am going to [...]
The first spirit-crushing episode of college: When I was a freshman in college on the west coast, after half a year of not taking my class too seriously, the teacher sat me down in an evaluation and suggested I leave school. My professor, Chuck, asked me “What do you want to do? What are [...]
