When you feel like need more orbs in your life.

Pandemic design project. I used to be a big fan of hip hop culture for a very long time and definitely have some latent B-Boy tendencies.. I've definitley have adapted a lot of these methods and mentalities to my own life and I think they apply to a lot of creative people. I think techno and hip hop are cousins in a big underground family there's a lot to learn from this, I hope you find some things that apply to you and improve your own life.

Rockem and sockem. #technomusic #westcoasttechno #sftechno

I'm not sure too many people have something like this. That has been this one great catalyst that sets all other things in motion. But I'm incredibly thankful to keep experiencing it. If people wonder why I'm so goddamn enraptured by techno or such a proponent of the unity gained from it, I wish I could tell them my story over and over and let them know this could be very much your story. What happiness could that bring? Where could you go, who could you know, what family could be yours? What dreams could be yours to come true?

Setting up again for another live gig mid January on the 12th at Pulse Generator. Should have some fresh tunes and some newer, more polished material. #livepa #technomusic #technomusicnonstop

I will let her die, I will move on, I will pack away my memories, but I will always keep her with me.

FBF to this video flyer for a Thought Society underground event I spun at. It also features footage of myself (in mask) at a Thought Society renegade under an undisclosed radio tower at 1:34.

Pure liquid motivation..been thinking a lot about motivation recently.. the one concept i really liked and i've used in the past was the concept of 'creative resistance', but it's so easy to stay in those pitfalls that i've been looking at other ways to stay on track, like concepts of 'time management', 'time blocking', 'tiny rewards', 'gratitude', 'a healthy mind starts with the end of a fork'.. i guess it's all somewhat akin to that pie in the sky, mouth breathing-headworn mic'd tony robbins, by-the-book/standard operating procedure for this sort of thing.. but it's really all about what applies..like edison's aphorism..*I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.*it's hard not to fail if failing itself is part of the goal...stay with me, it's hard not to sound cheese balls when trying to get psyched up for this shit.. but i guess, whatever works. because, this next phase has life presenting another crossroads. i hope i have what it takes to make the right decisions to affect a positive outcome, not just for myself, but everyone i care about as well.

Live pa stuff I was doing for a minute. Initially posted on IG, but, as with instagram, as with tumblr..

I’d say that this would be the first thing I posted as myself but not exactly the first thing i’ve ever posted as a website. I’ve been banging away at DEFSF.com since 2003 yet, trying to distance my ego from any part of it due to the very nature of the site being about “selflessness and partnership” but, there’s a delicate game we all play.. called shameless self promotion. If people aren’t seeing that, they’re going to suspect you want something from them if it isn’t exactly in their faces. So, in the effort to seem like a normal reasonable Techno head, here’s my handle here is my spout.. I’ll try to be more prolific as a techno artist and let you know about my stuff as soon as it comes out. In the process you can see some of the art and music that I particularly dig since some of my artskool kid sensibilities are still locked somewhere within me and I like to follow design as an inspiration.  Hello again.. this is social media and my name is again scribbled on the wall.
