Temporary Sanity


The name of my first solo album Temporary Sanity refers to the shift in style from The Plaid Tongued Devils complex ethno-fusion, to loud and catchy pop rock. This will be a 6 song EP.  Done for fun, possibly profit but mainly just to get the damn melodies out of my head.
Temporarily on hold cause the goddamned government decided to audit me for 2 years. I think I'll add a song about them.

Here's one sample track of a song named PRETEND.
More to come.

OpenBSD



One of my best design clients, OpenBSD is the world's most secure computer operating system, and every 6 months they put out a new version.  It's free on their website, but the real geeks buy the bi-annual3 CD set filled with funny artwork about the trials and tribulations of Puffy the blowfish (above), and each relase has a song that OpeBSD head honcho Theo DeRaadt, has me write, hire musicians, record and sometimes sing.  All the songs can also be heard HERE.
