So I like to consider myself somewhat cultured (for short periods of time, at random intervals) so I attended an indie concert this past weekend.

A while back, a post was written mentioning the ever-present danger of crashing a hard driving and losing all of your most precious files.

In the past I’ve written about David’s music (both his personal stuff and things he’s done with the Newtons). David, a true connoisseur of music, is both an artist and a producer, and as both, his music represents a continual evolution of sound. Dave’s first efforts at recording and producing a sound can be heard [...]
