SOUL HOP 2025

(Shortened Version)

    A space in time... before there was space... for time to exist... She was there. Waiting...
    yo ho ho ho and a bottle of Rum...

    Bästët is actually the name of one of my wife and I's black kittens. Named after Bastet or Bast (Ancient Egyptian: bꜣstjt, Coptic: Ⲟⲩⲃⲁⲥⲧⲉ, romanized: Oubaste), an Egyptian goddess.

    The Guitar part was originally recorded as a just a Delta Blues style piece on a Baby Taylor (Jean) and later on a Gretsch Resonator (Poe). The final version (used here) was recorded on a 'Diamond in the rough' ~Laurel Canyon~ Acoustic guitar (Gypsy) that I picked up off the internet for under $50 bucks.
    Recorded 12-11-2023 in my bedroom

The Bedroom Sessions
During a conversation with a Mixing/Mastering artist, I coined the term, "Soundscape Sculpting". Even I didn't know exactly what the term meant. The concept of creating more than just a piece of music, but more creating a Pseudo cinematic experience through sound effects and specific editing techniques. My concept of "Soundscape Sculpting" is highly influenced by the works of Pink Floyd and later by MTV videos. Expanding the concept of Music by filling the background with aural elements of the story being told. Simply put, its a method of visualizing in sound. With "Soundscape Sculpting" you will start with a raw piece of music and end up with something akin to a Cinematic film score. "The Bedroom Sessions" is both a first attempt at self recording my music, as well as my first real experiment in Sculting a Soundscape. My goal is to take each raw guitar instrumental, and sculpt into its own unique soundscape. And then each distinctive individual piece woven together into a greater cohesive ~MuSiCaL ViSion~

“Midsummer Dream (Giga Beat Remix)” is an exquisite mix of RnB & Reggaeton that tells a story of summer romance.  The original version of the artist Nyasia Chane’l, who with her fascinating voice, makes you feel her feelings with this interpretation.  The beat of this remix is ​​produced by Giga Beat and accompanied by the guitar of Grammy Award winner, Joshua Monszi.  And in part 2 of the remix the Puerto Rican artist Don Chino makes an amazing appearance.
