Rumble
Working on a cover song for an Instrumental Hits comp. I'm putting out next year on iREGULAR. I was initially gonna do Booker T & The MG's- Green Onions but on a CD I bought to learn the song I came across Link Wray's ultra-famous guitar instrumental Rumble and decided to go with that. What a great fuckin' tune! His sound is exactly the guitar timbre I was trying to get on my new recordings. I think I'm also gonna release the song on the new d.A. Sebasstian CD.

Teen Feeding Frenzy Pics
I go into the studio (Hanzsek Audio) to finish mastering the Best Of Kill Switch...Klick CD tomorrow. We also did the cover photo shoot for the next iREGULAR release TEEN FEEDING FRENZY a teen idols tribute. We had two gals (Liz & Margaret) chewing on and wrestling over a bloody steak.It looked very savage and cool. That CD should be in stores by early next year. We sent out the
WHO CARES:A TRIBUTE TO THE WHO to our distributor (REDEYE DISTRIBUTION) and select magazine reviewers last week. We are also planning a 300 piece college radio station mail out through AAM next week. iREGULAR also just picked up two new artists for distribution Jennifer Hope (a gothic/ ethereal female artist) & Six Sigma (multimedia electronica). Look for both in our iSTORE late next week. I will also be adding some new ADSR Music Werks titles as well as a new Bill Wolford's Head limited run
CDR at the same iSTORE update. You can also hear Bill's cover of The Who's, Behind Blue Eyes on WHO CARE'S.

Hanzsek Audio
Got 2/3rds of the Best Of Kill Switch...Klick CD loaded into ProTools at Hanzsek Audio today. Mell Dettmer was at the helm. We've got another session next week, and that should do it. Finished most of the lyrics for a new/old tune called The Underdog. The music for that one is over a year old. It's very aggro synth sounding. Rob Jones did the drumming and then I finished
the music and sat on it while the world spun on. It has a more Kill Switch...Klick feel but I'm gonna use it on the new d.A. Sebasstian e.p. to add a little lineage and diversity.

Who Shows
I've been setting up the shows to promote the WHO CARE'S tribute to THE WHO CD I'm putting out on iREGULAR. Should have the first run of CD's next week. Were going to do one at the University Bookstore in Seattle and one at Cellophane Square in Seattle, late October & Early November. The last CD release shows we did for the Americana: Tribute To Johnny Cash CD I put out two years ago went really well. I also set up the mastering sessions with Mel Dettmer for next week for the Best of Kill Switch...Klick, Cleopatra Records is putting out later this year.

October
October...already! Fall is my favorite time of year...but man this year really flew by. Finished the rough mix of Manifestation, I think this tune is going on the new d.A. Sebasstian CD. It's got a certain vibe that will sit well with the other tracks. I'm mixing it today. That makes four songs of the seven I want to do for the CD complete (originally I was only gonna do six). As I'm writing new material I'm seeing which project it would fit with. Like Day To Day (Feeding The Machine) doesn't have the same feel as the other d.A. Sebasstian tracks so that one is going on the Kill Switch...Klick- Almost Ambient CD, even though I wrote the two songs in a similar mind set, they don't have the same feel. I think 'cause Manifestation ended up with alot of guitar over the electronics, it fits in the d.A. category. I might re-evaluate killing the Kill Switch...Klick name altogether, and just use it for my more electronic & experimental recordings.
