High Def Audio and Mark Waldrep

I listened to a podcast called "Home Theater Geeks" earlier today and really loved hearing the guest Mark Waldrep discuss digital recording and true "High Def Audio." It's good to hear that someone else is able to articulate and has explored what I have felt for a long time.

I don't understand why people are so fascinated with vinyl, tape and other crappy antiquated recording formats. There is absolutely no way you cannot digitally reproduce exactly what a tube does, what a capacitor does, what tape does, or any other component for that matter. You need a good mic and a good D/A, good speakers and that's it.

Political Campaign Ad

I wrote this piece for a political campaign ad for Health Care Reform. Feels good to do something for a good cause.

Sucka Free Sunday

I did the sound design and mix for this MTV2 spot -- threw in some musical elements like the synth at the top and tail and the snare that matches the quick cuts throughout.
