do you guys love youtube? it’s so cool! i can’t believe it’s only been 5 or 6 years. it’s hard to imagine a world without it. it’s a great time to be alive.

what kind of musics are you enjoying these days? what role does it play in your day to day life? i mostly listen to music while i jog or in the car. sometimes in the kitchen while i do dishes. i like my pandora radio stations : reggae, black metal, new age ambient, prince. it’s a delight.

last month we saw prince at the LA house of blues, morris day and the time at the indian casino, tuneyards in a tiny sd venue. life is good!

what is up?

NEW ALBUM DROPS 2MORROW!!!!

rafterroberts — Thu, 27 Jan 2011 21:21:42 +0000

a sneak peek of QUIET STORM!!!! here’s one of my favorite tracks from it…

it’s coming out tomorrow!

when nathan and i were touring around the us after “animal feelings” came out, we listened to a lot of black metal demo tapes in the car… it was really inspiring, extreme, blown out, ridiculous but heartfelt… i made this album, fed by those inspirations and a wave of existential freakout, human mind explosion. in my fantasy, it’s like darkthrone meets the kinks meets lee perry…

just really busy -

liz janes record just came out, i produced that one, it’s a jammer “say goodbye”

in the studio right now with jookabox working on “eyes of the fly” and it is also a jammer

working the magic hustle with my magic wife for SMILE NOW CRY LATER and it’s an ULTIMATE JAMMER

also still hustlin’ on my 7 albums, 2 or maybe 4 are DONE like D O N E and on their way to you if you even care,

cause who cares after all? hah! making one w/a cross universe collaboration with simon lord (simian, black ghosts, lord skywave) and that’s a fun jammer! one is a black metal inspired noise-fest! one is an ambient sprawl… one samples a LOT of paul mccartney songs.. i’m sleepy and well, about to take off for the holidays and be away from music for a week.
