“Drink Just Tears” is my futile attempt at empathy with a man who has none of his own. How did he become this way? Evil and racism are not inherent human traits, at least I don’t believe so. They are learned. What fucked this guy up this badly? I tried.The result is one of my…
TESTING 1.2.3. – Pilot
I am stuck like everyone else. I was considering this before pandemic times. I considered that there is a total lack of performance venues in South Florida, plus my ideas are bigger than a guy strumming acoustic guitar (not that there’s anything wrong with that).This will evolve. I hope you stick it out and ride…
VIDEO / SONG: Red
It was May 29, 2017. A Monday. I had some musical pain I had to get out of me. So I rolled out of bed that night at 11:30 and went into the studio. I opened up the DAW on my already booted computer, checked a the mic and MIDI keyboard for levels and hit…
VIDEO: Bright New Thing
The idea was to make a simple, stop-motion video loop to act as a placeholder for the song “Bright New Thing’”… and I got a little carried away. I bet if you watch it 10 times you’ll still find something new in it. Created in Stop Motion Studio on my iPhone and assembled in iMovie.
New Songs From a New Album
The time has come to finally share with the world some of what I’ve been musically working on for the past 3 years. It is a rather ambitious project that spans two albums worth of music and some other art adventures that will keep me occupied for some time. But the world is crazier than…
Prologue: The Appointment
I never splinter my mind into fractals of dark and light. It’s all just gray. There is no definition to it really. It’s all even. Everything is in balance. Until I reach out and feel the truth there. It is no longer a trick of light and shadow – it is real. Concrete. Tangible. And…
The Underdog of 199th Street
Ferhat loved the trumpet. We played in Junior High band together and his passion was consuming him. “Maynard Ferguson, man – have you ever heard him play? He is amazing!” His excitement was infectious as he put on the record. “Listen to those high notes – He is the best ever!” Of course, I was…
SONG: (Morphallaxis) Stars Undersea
(Morphallaxis) Stars Underseaby George Zhen “All the doubt that creeps in deep in the nightIs there to help us practice morphallaxis…” 30Over last summer, I was tooling around with some ideas in electronic music, specifically the idea of blending the unison, group vocal sound of something like The Mouglies or even Of Monsters and Men…
SONG: Tanwood Drice (What Forever Means)
Tanwood Drive (What Forever Means) by George Zhen “There’s more to living than just bring aliveIt’s the summer sun lighting up Tanwood Drive…” I rarely do this kind of song. But I had too. See, my in-laws were reaching their 60th wedding anniversary and everyone in the family was writing these nice memory letters and…
VIDEO BLOG: The Accessible Studio Tour
I’m excited to bring you my first ever video blog. I figured I’d start out by giving you a tour of my home studio, complete with a bit of an explanation about how I get around using various assistive technologies like screen magnifiers and the like. Let me know what you think….
