It took a few months of coin pinching and a dam lot of keyboard hustling to get myself a plane ticket to visit California again but I’m finally on my way. I’m excited to be able to visit again, though this trip won’t just be all BBQ’s and conversation over bottles of wine. I’m planning   Read More …

See how great the internet is…? I press a button and suddenly I’m engulfed in an amazingly good electro-pulse mash-up from an artist by the name of Neus.

This Saturday, October 29th, I’ll be in Union NJ at the Barrister Smoke shop hosting @Steelsouls event.
