After listening to some LakeShore Vibe, and going to see them play shows twice (in a week!), and watching their kick-ass guitar player kick ass on guitar, I got inspired to pull out my electric guitar and try to rip an improvised solo (even though I hardly ever play it).
I also whipped out my bass [...]

Over the past week, I spent some time chillin’ with my old neighbor, turned rockstar, the infamous Jimmy Hegarty of LakeShore Vibe, and also LakeShore Vibe…
We came up with some ideas and recorded them, old-skool style, with only a computer and a microphone the 2010 version of a tape recorder (and I bet half the [...]

At some point in college, when I was staying up until at least 2 AM every night fooling around with beats, I got my man Th.adde.us started on Fruityloops (back when it was still called Fruityloops.. It’s not anymore, because of a trademark settlement with Kellogg’s cereal.. no joke)
Anyway, Thaddeus started a beat, called [...]

Now that the site’s up and running, I’m going to start putting up new music and filling you in on some behind-the-scenes info about the songs.
…starting right now… Here’s the F! True Hollywood Story (I can’t use E! because that’s already taken…)
Back in late 2007/early 2008, I started playing around with a program called [...]

I finally got some sexy web development done. You’ll notice that I removed the Player “page” and replaced it with a little tab that says “Player” in the top-right corner of the screen (to all my Facebook friends reading the site, you’ll have to actually head over to masskonfuzion.com to see it…) The [...]

It’s been a long time….
…I shouldn’t have left you……
…without a dope beat to step to.
Which is why I’m starting work on the website again. I’m updating the media player, so it’ll be integrated into the main page, and you’ll be able to listen to music while you browse (no more media-player-hidden-on-a-separate-page syndrome). I’m [...]

Let me tell you a crazy story.  I couldn’t make this up, even with my ridiculous imagination.  I’m not even the main character of this story, but it’s so outlandish that I have to tell it.

Recently, I’ve made a breakthrough discovery:  a little free app called MuseScore.  It’s not a studio-quality synthesizer, sequencer, or recording tool, but it will still revolutionize the way I make music.  MuseScore is musical notation software–in plain English, it’s a sheet music editor that lets you listen to what you’re writing.  Lately, I’ve been getting [...]

Lately, I’ve been adding to my multimedia skillset by fooling around with video editing, and my latest creation is up on YouTube.  The video is a mashup of clips I shot while in Washington, D.C. for the inauguration of Barack Obama.  The temperature was frigid, and I slept less than 3 hours the night before [...]
