Hello

January 12, 2009

Ok for reals this time. I have been really bad about updating this site. I seem to be at my job for what feels like 90% of my life so everything else is on the catching up tip. At least I have a job. Actually a lot of music is getting done so I hope you can check it out and enjoy! There are two shows coming up, one this week, and one at the beginning of February. Ugh- can't believe how bad I've been about posting updates! This is so much better than myspace too. OK, new years resolution: update my own damn website.

Also imminent: the emergence of Community Library from hibernation (really for real this time), an updating/officialization of this website into something more detailed, real, with some space for serving media, etc. (for real this time), completion of a bunch of DIY electronics projects, and another album!

Out Now:
Strategy- Noise Tape Reggae 7" (Entr'acte)
Strategy remix of IMPS "Get a Grip" (Mule)
nudge- infinity padlock CDEP (audralint)

I hope to hear from you, some day soon...

be well..
Strategy
