It's Episode 28, it's New Music Tuesday, and it's all about the sheep! And girls. But not like that.
Another oh so true tale, written specifically for, and dedicated to- a close friend. Because I promised I would try to sing for her. With boy-band inspired harmonies backed by a teen-centric rock beat, "She Draws Sheep" is a certainly one of the proudest moments in BMP history. For now. (As always, lyrics are included in the ID3 tag!) Comments welcome.

Yeah, you know how it is... "as times change our needs change..." blah blah blah... You probably noticed a lack of posts in the last few- okay- several months. Due primarily to a lifestyle-change (yeah, that's it!). Not to fear however! A change is in the works, which I like to call Project Reboot.
"Coming Soon", as they say...
The following is a true story! ("jstreetstudio" is me).
jstreetstudio @ 8:44i love having a drumset @ my disposal
xxxxxxxxxx @ 8:45lol y?
jstreetstudio @ 8:45other day i was writing a jingle and spent 20 minutes not finding a drum loop that matched what was in my head... i said "screw this" and cranked up the kit
xxxxxxxxxx @ 8:45I don't know why you wouldn't do that in the first place.
jstreetstudio @ 8:46i was being lazy. i thought "surely there's the 4/4 swing shuffle in garageband"
xxxxxxxxxx @ 8:46Yeah but doesn't it actually take more effort to search thru and tweak the Apple Loops than it is to just play it?
jstreetstudio @ 8:47it was such a straight forward beat i am still shocked it isnt in there
xxxxxxxxxx @ 8:47shrug
I just got an email with the subject shown above. The content of the message is shown below:
Your Roland drum kit has been repaired and it is ready for pickup.
Regards,
Eric
Digi**** Electronics, Inc.
Nice! Finally! After almost three months!! I'll skip the ranting for now. After all, I still need to drive the 60 miles each way to pick it up. (I could have forced my hand and made them ship it, but that would just be pressing my luck!)
More news, as it develops!
Going on two months ago, I reluctantly sent my entire v-drum kit in for repair, because one of the components on it (the hi-hat) went wiggy on me. Why they made me ship the entire thing, I don't know (heck, it cost the insurance company $280 in shipping alone!). The short version, every time I call to check the status on it, I get the same reponse, "we're waiting on parts, it should take about two weeks, we'll call you". So, as you've guessed, two weeks go by and no call. So I call them, and the cycle repeats- for two months?!?
At what point am I allowed to be pissed off? I mean, I can always revert back to the drum machine to write songs, but that's so... what's the word, limiting.
Instead of whining about it anymore, I thought I'd post some pics I forgot I posted in my flickr account almost a year ago.
(click for full size)
Like sands through the hourglass...
The saga continues! I called the repair shop this morning to get a status update on my drumset, because two weeks ago they said "it should be complete in two weeks". After giving the guy my work order number he says, "oh yeah- we're still waiting on about five or six parts..."
FIVE OR SIX PARTS?!
Not being an electrical engineer, I can't tell if this is a good or bad sign. If they're going to just replace an entire unit because one piece on the inside is busted (as Americans are prone to do), I certainly would not mind a brand new high-hat, but that's just one part, right? In this case, to need five or six parts, I can only think of what else they might be replacing.
As a floor model, the set was "well-used" when I got it and pretty banged up. While I didn't know it at the time, it is actually missing a few screws here and there too. It wasn't until I downloaded an Owner's Manual that I became aware there should have been velcro fasteners for all of the cables (neither the manual or fasteners were given to me at purchase). A musician friend who owns the exact same kit went down the list of what was missing or "not right". Most noteably, in his words, my kick drum is "thrashed". I didn't think much of it at the time because it played just fine. (Tip: Unless you can give it a good top-to-bottom inspection, and know what to look for never get the floor model from Guitar Center!) Again, if they choose to replace or fix the kick drum too, how awesome is that? However, if- and here's where it get interesting, the repair shop is opening up the components and pulling out guts and motherboards and replacing them, my experience in building an rebuilding computers and working on cars and tells me this is a great point for something to go wrong and get overlooked until the entire set is shipped back and I discover the problem three months from now.
Or, I could just be paranoid and going through withdrawals of not having a drumset for almost a month.
Got any "repair center" horror stories? Share them in the comment section below!
A few days ago I posited a theory about the similarities between Barack Obama and Bob Marley. My own observations were mostly a discussion about the surprising number of songs written about the former, with the positive tones and call-to-action like lyrics involved. The themes in these recent songs about Obama are almost identical in content to those of Mr. Robert Nesta Marley. My friends called me crazy but I know I'm right.
Today I stumbled upon a similar discussion from the Trinidad and Tobago News Blog (who knew!). They identified some similarities such as, "Robert “Bob” Nestor Marley and Senator Barack Obama both have one thing in common: a white parent. Bob Marley’s father was British and white; Senator Barack Obama’s mother was American and white..." Sure, that's kind of interesting, but not really what I was going for in my own supposition.
How about this one:
"Like Bob Marley, young white Americans totally identified with Obama’s message about their future. They felt Obama’s “positive vibration.” Like Bob Marley, Obama’s youthful, white –looking, physical appearance was the magnetic force to draw young white Americans to his side. They not only saw themselves in his political mirror but also clothed themselves in his rock star persona a la Bob Marley."
Okay now we're getting into some Thesis quality material! Okay one more...
"Bob Marley’s lyrics spoke to revolutionary change in society between the “Haves” and “Have nots” and exhorted the oppressed/ marginalized to “get up, stand up; stand up for your rights”. Similarly, Senator Barack Obama’s campaign lyrics/ rhetoric spoke to ” change ” in America after eight years of President George Bush’s failed domestic economic and foreign policie
s."
And "Boom goes the dynamite!" I knew it wasn't just me, I just knew it!
I encourage you to validate my own astute observation skills and visit the Trinidad and Tobago News Blog, where you can read Dr.Kwame Nantambu's article in its entirety. And of course, whether you agree, disagree, or have thoughts of your own, I encourage you to leave a comment!

From beatcrave.com (slightly edited for humorous intent):*
"A CalTech grad student has conducted an interesting (albeit somewhat unscientific) study relating music preferences with SAT scores... the results show that the “smartest” students’ favorite musician is Beethoven... at the other end of the spectrum is... Lil’ Wayne!"
Bwahahaha!!
Usually this is where I say "and they spent how much gov't funding for this?" But in this case, the guy is at CalTech, which means he likely dropped a boatload of cash for the priviledge to tell us what we already know. The chart below is pretty interesting!

Last night I went onto the iTunes Store because I had heard that Obama's Weekly Radio Address is available as podcast. Being the lazy/resourceful person I am, I typed "obama" into the iTunes search window. I expected to see a lot of Daily Show clips, official footage, news shows, and political podcasts. However, what I didn't expect to see, was all the songs about Barack Obama!
It seems a lot of rap artists have something to say about Obama, which is not surprising. But so do artists from from almost every other genre as well- country, pop, "world music" such as Calypso, Soca, and even Congolese! And it doesn't stop there- reggaeton, mariachi... Seriously- mariachi! But the most popular genre of Obama songs appears to be Reggae, which I find quite interesting. And I'm not talking about some piddley no-name indie artists either. That is, unless you consider Cocoa Tea and Steel Pulse "little". (For those not into Reggae, these two artists are about as A-List as it gets!) I then sauntered onto YouTube and BitTorrent to find even more artists singing about the 44th President of the United States.
I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong, but I am not aware of any other U.S. president that has had even one song written about them (not counting the ones that mock them are string along sound bytes to a techno beat), not to mention a whole boat load. Everyone seems to love Obama (well, not everyone, but you know what I mean). Given the rock star treatment Barack already received from the media and everyday people, and I now as I've discovered, the music community as well, this all leads to my conclusion/question/speculation-- Is Obama the new Bob Marley?
My co-worker mentioned that this pro-Obama scene we're experiencing is very much like when John Kennedy was elected but of course, with the 21st century twist. But I'm not old enough to remember that, so if you are old enough to share your own insights, please feel free to do so!

It took four days for UPS to ship my drum kit 80 miles. shakes head (I asked/begged if I could just drive it down there myself but they said no?!?) Given the hassles involved just to get it on a truck, I'm glad they managed to send me an email letting me know it actually made it to its destination. But, as it turns out, that was the easy part!
Now, I don't know much about repairin' electronical devices, but I do know where to get a part just like anything electrical in about 48 hours- you know, that Internet thing? So, after two days of not hearing a thing about the status, today I took it upon myself to contact the shop I sent my drums to. After telling them 12 different kinds of information, they verified they had received the shipment, and that it may take 2-3 weeks to get the thing fixed.
2-3 WEEKS?!?! I could have ordered the one broken part and had it shipped in 2-3 days! The price we pay to not spend money! Go figure!
And of course, I've put it into my calendar to bug them again in 14 days. :)
Remember the old movies, where they show the young maiden, stricken with grief after sending her loved one off to war, not knowing if she will ever see him return alive again? Well, that's kind of how I feel right now. Why? Well, I had to send my drum kit into the shop. :(
The hi-hat on my V-Drum kit has been acting funny lately and finally went into a coma about a week ago. All hail the Extended Warranty!
I called the number on the side and they said "no problem!". And as usual, that's when the problems began. I get a phone call two days later with the details on how/where to send it. Despite the issue being with only one (1) piece of the set, I am required to send in the entire kit?! Kinda weird, but hey it's an electronic device, so I kinda understand. I get the info needed to ship it off, disassemble and pack it up, and load it into the back of the MINI.
Calling ahead to verify they will know what I'm talking about (yes, that's the kinda guy I am), the shipping centre has not received the fax from the guarantor and has no clue what I'm talking about. (A fax? Really? What century is this again?) I call up Heir Guarantor and they send the fax again. I head off to the shipping centre. I get there and they have not received the fax. I take a deep breath. While still at the counter I call the guarantor again again and they read me the requisite information over the phone. It is at this time that I discover none of the on-duty clerks have access to generate the work order and I am told I must wait for the Manager who is scheduled to come in later. Four hours later. I breath and walk out without trashing the place.
I drive back down to the shop five hour later (because that's the kind of guy I am) and no Manager in sight. The low-paid, barely trained clerks understand my frustration and try to call the Manager on the phone- his phone is off?! Clearly perturbed, yet eerily polite and respectful, I give one of the clerks my card and say "please have your manager call me when he gets in". And of course, NO PHONE CALL!!
The next day (this morning) I come back and the same clerks are working. Clerk #1 looks me straight in the eye and says, "OMG I'm so sorry! The Manager is not here!" She mentions that she gave him my card and I mention that he never called me. She goes on to explain that "it's not that we can't submit the work order, its that we don't know how". I breathe deeply and pause before speaking. I calmly describe how lack of staff training is bad for business and customer satisfaction, and vaguely question the qualifications of the management staff who do not ensure that their staff is properly trained (worker bees eat that sh*t up!) I ask, "what do you suggest I do now?" [ed. note: Yes, I was a retail manager for six years and am now purposely playing head games with the help]. Another girl (who wasn't there the previous day) says, "what's going on?" The first clerk explains the situation. New Girl says, "let's see what I can do"...
New Girl seems to know a little bit more of the process and begins to get things rolling. I ask New Girl, "How can I be confident that my package will be sent safely, when every time I come in here, I lose confidence in this store's ability to do its job?" [yes, more head games. grin] New Girl says, "I will do my best to help you and all I can do is ask you to trust me". I say, "what's your name again?" She says "Sara(h)". I say, "okay Sara(h), let's do this".
I wish I could say everything went smoothly from there. First the shop stil didn't have all the info needed to fill out the work order so I had to call the guarantor a third time and have them send a (fourth) fax with the information. Then the office of the number she was supposed to call to get an authorization code was closed (Weekends, go figure). She calls another store and seeks advice on what to do next. FINALLY we get a shipping label printed up. I bring in all 10 pieces of my kit and place it in the back room. Sara(h) ensures me it will be packaged up and sent off on the morrow.
I graciously thank her for her patience and extra efforts and leave without trashing the place. Do I expect everything to run smoothly from this point? HELL NO!! My tracking number still does not show up on the UPS site and it's only been 12 hours since I dropped it off. At least I know my sht is insured and if anything goes wrong its on the shop and not me. And I know the name of the clerk, the store manager, and* shop owner. Because I'm observant. :)
And yeah, Sara(h) is also quite attractive which makes it easier to remain calm. She also has no giant carbon-based item on either hand which is a good sign! Assuming my package will not suffer a fate similar to the Lusitania, I will have to figure out how to ask her out and perhaps invite her to Wicked® when I pick up my fixed kit. Whenever that is.
Fortunately I never expect anything to go smoothly... :)
Greetings folks! Well, we're in full swing into 2009 now, and with a new year comes new things for yours truly and The Bushfinger Music Project.
Along with hopes, dreams, wishes and prayers, the New Year rings in a new studio, new hardware, new website (soon), new goals, and subsequently, a new name for my band? [dramatic flourish]
Yeppers- It looks like its time to retire the name and move forward. Not for contract or trademark dispute reasons (which I am no stranger to), but, well, for many reasons. For one, with the namesake and original inspiration for the Bushfinger Music Project, aka Mr. Knucklehead- finally out of our hair (or is he?!?!), having "Bushfinger" in the name is just that much less funny (still funny to me, but less to others). Oh and another good reason- when you do a google search for "Bushfinger", I don't come up on the top of the list. Okay sure I'm at least on the front page, so I guess I can't complain about that. And that's just two of a bout four or five reasons why it's time to consider a name change.
"But to what?" You say? Well, that is indeed the question isn't it? I tend to come up with the best names for bands when I'm not even thinking about it. But since I'm thinking about it right now, I can't think of one! (Don'tcha hate that?!)
I am always open to your suggestions on just about everything, and now, naming my band. I'll figure out a prize or something for the one I like the best. And for everyone else, no worries- I will be sure to keep you informed fo any changes as they come up.
Until then, have a cupcake!

My friend james* has recently started a fun little project where a topic of the month is presented, and a variety of people are asked to contribute something creative surrounding that topic.
When I received the email about December's topic, I already had half the song written before I even finished reading the email! As good with words as james is, I took the liberty of borrowing a bit of text from the email (with permission of course), added a few words of my own, some catchy pop riffs, and voila!
"New Music Tuesday, Episode 35" is smugly entitled "Smells Like Flowers", co-written by yours truly and james, who prefers lowercase and would want you to visit stewedtomatoes.blogspot.com for some excursions in creative writing, photography, and the occasional theme-related pop song.

Sometimes I'm curious what my life would be like if I were not a musician. Would it be more or less boring? Would I be more productive in other pursuits, or just sit around and play video games all night?
The song I'm working on right now was "done" at least a month ago. Or so one would think. As a timberlake-esque pop song, it features lots of keyboard, drums, boy-band harmonies, and is just okay... (I do not attempt to compare myself to J to the T). Weeks after completing that project- i.e., a few nights ago- A few drinks in and screwing around on the bass guitar, I gave birth to a fat-ass funky bass riff! A riff so fat it needed to be recorded immediately before I forgot it!
The process is simple enough: Drum loop for tempo, hit record, lay down a fat groove. "Now that's fat!" I said.
Inspiration comes from odd sources and can vary from person to person, and even song to song. Being either lazy, uninspired, and/or drunk at the time, instead of writing new lyrics, I opened up my "Lyrics" folder and randomly chose the aforementioned timerblake-ripoff, and sang the words over the drum and bass tracks. You know- just to create a feeling for whatever this song would turn out to be.
I was about to go to bed and thought "just a quick rhythm guitar track- with some wah-wah and phaser- you know- just to get a feel for where this track is headed"... I laydown a 70's porno guitar groove and should really be getting to bed now. But noooo... There are some things you just can't do with a drum machine, so of course, gotta throw down some funky licks... "just so I don't forget what I'm aiming for"... (he said).
Now it's who-knows-what-time in the morning and I still have work tomorrow. But, let me just lay a little lead guitar in there- so I know what vocal harmonies I want to put it later when I write some real words for the song...
Hit save, rewind, and play...
WTF?! My pop song is officially a funky rock jam!? I mean, seriously- "why write new words at this point?" I thought. I mix down the rough cut and pop it onto the iPod, and finally go to bed. The next day I'm listening to it all day at work and at the gym and can't wait to get back into the studio to work on it some more, which basically means, re-record all those tracks over again, while sober (lol).
Three days later (I do have a day job, after all) and the song is finally DONE!! Embellishments, mixed, mastered, EQ'd. Perfect!
Then as I'm driving to work today, listening to my masterpiece, it hits me: "Conga drums would be sick right here!"
Which bodes the eternal question, "When is a song ever "done"?"*
Look for "You Got It Goin' On" in an upcoming release of "The Bushfinger Music Project GarageBand Show"

*(quote borrowed from Lars Ulrich - St. Anger DVD)
Not one to shy away from experimentation, the fact that I was raised on hard rock and heavy metal doesn't mean I can't dabble into pop music and hip-hop every now and then...
"New Music Tuesday, Episode 34" features a track-in-progress embracing the gangsta/dirty south vibe. Trying anyway... Not being an accomplished rapper I'm only prepared to unleash the instrumental version of "Rollin' Sinister" at this time. Ya'mean?!
(PS: Any lyrical assassins looking for good source of music should hit a brutha up, yo!)

Trent Reznor gets it.
In late 2006 he posted the second full multi-track master of one of his songs onto the internet, "Survivalism"- inviting the general masses to remix it at will. I began my interpretation of this track in early 2007 and was somehow distracted. (coughmastersthesiscough)
I went back and "completed" my remix a few days ago, which I have dubbed the "Nuclear Winter" mix. I encourage your thoughts and comments!

It's New Music Tuesday, Episode 29, featuring my friend Cami and good karma!
While "Good Karma" is an excellent name for a band, we're talking about the concept that bad things happen to bad people and good things happen to good people. Eventually anyway.
(Photo courtesy Cami W. Photographer unknown)
Cami, describes herself as many things, Trance Diva, Rock Star, Cool Chick... All of them true!
She has over 40 original, collaborative, and others' songs recorded. Some have been played overseas and a few in the USA. Most of her work is recorded trance, house, electronica meant for the club/rave scene, but she also loves more moody sounds like Depeche Mode, Wolfsheim, Blaqk Audio, VNV Nation, and similar. She has recorded and written in every style from acoustic folk to blues, cabaret, alt/pop, alt/rock, rock, indie, punk, musical theater, standards, and adult contemporary.
I had the honor of remixing some of her most widely known tracks in 2005, and then my studio was ransacked and I lost all my master tapes. I recently found some of Cami's remixes, and with her permission, now feature one of my favorites, "Come My Way".
Listen to more Bushfinger/Cami remixes, as well as many other great tracks on her music site, www.reverbnation.com/cami or www.myspace.com/hapacami. And if you're the type who spends money easily, buy some of her tracks for pete's sake, since I give mine away for free!
Cami is currently seeking to sing for experienced producers/DJs who specialize in the styles listed above.

OMG! It's the British Invasion all over again! No, actually, it's just New Music Tuesday, Episode Twenty Twenty-Seven*
This week's song, "Giving Up", is inspired by the 60's and 70's brit-pop sounds from groups such as The Hollies, The Yardbirds, and The Zombies (who, incidentally, get my vote for coolest band name of that era). Slightly cheeky, lightly produced, definitely boppy, and of course, deceptively depressing! All in an upbeat, reverb-laden facade. Bob's your uncle!
