This is the first track off the last album Dead Rats recorded called our Evolution.  Its one of my favorite songs that I have ever written.

The New Meek - BuBoNiC NATE and DEAD RATS - Our Evolution

The Contranym WEFEW EP is the thing I am currently most proud of in my whole musical career.  It turned out so close to what I envisioned.  It is the result of years of work, coming up with an overall sound I felt was original and expressed what I wanted.  I am more proud of these songs than anything else I've ever written. Contranym was my first project where I felt like I might have finally contributed something different to the world of music.  It is my core.  It always sounds so pretentious and arrogant when I try to express how I feel about my work... but the fact is I'm passionate about it and it matters more to me than anything other than my wife.  This was my expression of my life in the desert, it was a call to arms for my local music to scene to see itself in the amazing way I do every day.  The recording of this WEFEW EP was done at my No Exit Records studio in Lancaster, CA.  I avoided using reverb and effects other than subtle EQ and compression (and an obvious straight forward single delay on the chorus vocal repeat).  I wanted it to sound dry and honest, like the desert. It took a lot of failures to finally come up with a track that I think is one of the best things I've ever done.  Not just the song, but the lyrics, the philosophy behind it, and the project as a whole.  Here universe - this is me at my best - thanks.
