 Introduced to my first Synthesizer back around 1980 - given to me as a present from David Lucas in San Diego, California. I LOVED it,... even though it was merely a simplistic Casiotone (toy-like?) only measuring probably around a foot long in total length! I started writing songs with crappy equipment along with guitar extraordinaire Eric Baecht regularly after a while and for some time with what we both thought good success. Tape overdubbing, Jury rigged effect units, and a basement with water pipes running below the ceiling. Looking back on it,,,it was a blast! Eric is FAMOUS now...works with many very popular and famous rock bands.  Cool! Jams with various best friends on occassion- David Lucas (I owe the greatest thanks to YOU, my good friend),Scott, Dwight, Nick, Larry, Bob, John Kirby (what ever happened to you???) Dave Late-and lots and lots of recording (thanks to you guys, I am where I am today)also a wonderful woman named Lisa -Thanks ....Whew.... Needless to say, after 35+ years (Wow) of playing around with recording / producing my own music, and writing (if one calls some of that old stuff songs even) using various: Roland, Sequential Circuits Pro-One, Yamaha, Casiotone, Korg, That ole Yamaha CS-15,, Arp Odyssey, Fretted and fretless Bass Guitars, Radio Shack Sound Effects Generator(I still have and use that lil sucker every now and then!)Toy Synthesizers, (a Mattel Synsonics even!) Doctor Rhythm Drum machine,Virtual Synths& VST's,, Even that old SK-1 Sampler...I've owned like 3 or 4 of them and still use it for stuff today on occasion. These days, I typically use a Roland D-50, a few different Yamaha Synthesizers, a CasioSK-1 mini-sampler, an Acoustic Guitar, a harmonica, Fx Units, VST's, A BOATLOAD of software, Etc...and whatever I get my hands on at the moment. Yes,  I do have a wonderful Computerized Studio set-up. Also, I have a very large and extensive SOUND LIBRARY (way over 100 -200 GIGS) that I draw from, and enjoy playing with preferably self made sounds and loops-I do use loops made by companies and individuals made for this royalty free, but try not be too reliant on those types of Compositions as much. I focus more on INSTRUMENTS and SOUNDS  - then make my own measures and loops note by note. If I find what I am looking for on a commercial loop cd/dvd, I almost always change the sounds and notes in ways that are "mine"This makes me feel like I am not taking others material; completely and I turn what notes and or sounds I do use on occasion into something I did. Personally, I wish I could play every instrument in the world proficiently. In the meantime, I'll stick with sounds until I get there! Well, I hope you likie the MUSIC- Thanks for listening and reading. Raan-Cinder Block Party

BTW- Many people laugh when I say, "if I can't play it...I program it one or two or a few notes at a time or Sample cut/paste/edit refine...hopefully when it is done, it's in time and Yes, VERY much my own creation. . It really isn't all that funny or strange... time consuming-yes...EASY?....no. I love programming though, and I feel at home in front of a computer. =)This kind of Music Technology has only been around say 30-40 years. Imagine what people will be doing with it in 100+ or more??? Innnnnteresting!

Genocide, June 2025:
Israel is only the executioner, every nation which has armed that country in the past year is an accessory to that genocide, an accomplice, a facilitator.  We cannot talk about war crimes because when you target unarmed civilians, mostly women and children, we are talking about a massacre, like terrorists do, not a war. The people who orchestrated that massacre, in the US, the most duplicitous, followed by those of the UK, Germany, France, and probably a few lesser ones should be tried for crimes against humanity just as well as Netanyahu and his cabinet, because it has been going on for two years, generously reported by media of all kinds, so the enablers knew exactly how the arms were to be used, as a tool for revenge, domination, and humiliation of the Palestinian people.  The conflict has ceased to be about the defense of anything for months.

The parties responsible have made a mockery of decency, morals, fairness, proportion, or justice, not to mention empathy.  Of what little there was, these concepts will be a lot longer to come back than they were to be struck down.  

Is it 1984 already?!?!
 ...

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

...

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I then went ahead and butchered his work with a borrowed helmet.
... Sorry Joe. =(

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
