Snoopy dance? Sorry, I’m changing a tire

JoDee and I decided to go out and celebrate her thesis completion tonight. As we were driving to 12 Oaks mall, though, my “Low Tire Pressure” light went off. So, we pulled off the freeway to investigate. I pulled out my trusty tire gauge and tested each of the tires.
Hmm… only one seemed a [...]

Not so Funky.

Not So Funky is my latest musical release. I wanted to play with MusE and it’s myriad of effects, and this song was the end result. Let me know what you think. I hope you enjoy it! (The title comes from a drum beat that I was playing with that JoDee said sounded like every [...]
