Today is the day that my first EP, This Is How I Feel, released on all platforms.  It's amazing to think how a small idea grew into four tracks that are being heard by other people.  And it is even more amazing to know that this music is impacting others.  Whether it is motivating people to workout (groovy beats, and thumping house bass :), or having some music to play while they're on a long drive.  As an artist, it's great to know the work is supported.  I am grateful for all of the listeners and giving my music a chance to be heard! 

This project began with the first song "Giving Up".  I was going to release it as a single, but because the lyrics resonated with me so much, I thought I could compile some tracks and ideas to create a project.  I also feel that a lot of work goes into a release, so why not create something where people can listen to multiple songs?  

I was nervous prior to the release, but now I can breathe.  It feels awesome to receive great support from friends, family members, and fans.  It is truly a great feeling!  #thisishowifeel 

If you haven't heard the EP yet, you can check it out on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, and all other digital outlets.  I have set this page up just for you! :

Good question!!! It's always cool to know what musicians use when they're creating their tracks.  Here's what gets regular use in my studio:

Digital Audio Workstation:  Logic Pro X

Favorite Plug-In Suite:  Waves

Software Synths:  reFX Nexus, Sylenth, and the good ol' ES2 ;)

I used to be a plug-in hoarder from 2010 - 2013 and then I learned some valuable lessons, haha.

It can be trying times for some people with the COVID-19 pandemic that's occuring around the world.  The music industry has taken a hit for sure... for both the artist and consumer.  But, I've found a way that we can all win!  Even tho I've had some gigs cancelled, I wanted to offer an opportunity to continue to share music with you.  I'm offering the opportunity to become a subscriber to exclusive mixes on my Mixcloud account.

What does this mean?  Well, you will ALWAYS get the Laced Radio show every week.  That is 100% free and my gift to you.  With a SELECT membership on Mixcloud I'm offering some exclusive benefits, to include exclusive mixes.  These mixes will come from my archived crates... some vinyl and mp3 classics from my favorite times of 80s, 90s, and early 2000s.  These mixes will include tracks that you wish you heard more of during the "Flashback at Noon" on your favorite radio station. 

Ask yourself... When was the last time you heard, What Is Love by Haddaway?  It's one of my favorites... and it's an example of what I will add to my exclusive mixes.
