 “Nagasaki” broke off from the dance group to be “a different sort of performance piece”. " A young man, walking, remembering, Nagasaki before that morning on August 9th: before the bomb was dropped. 
Dreamy, dark, tranquil, sometimes even just feeling moonlit.
The fields he grew up in. The school he went to. The playground. 
The aroma of tea in the house. The way his dog looked up at him 
when he first learned to climb a tree.
The first girl he kissed. . . ."All gone, all vanquished.

When We Met--fishboisfo(118 11 1)

It’s an odd name.  Hard to pronounce, hard to understand.  People don’t get it.  What’s the deal ?

Fishboi:sfo came about as a screen name initially.  (( Pronounced “FISH - BOY - S.F.O.” or simply “FISH - BOY --SAN FRANCISCO” ))  It had changed with every city I lived in as the airport codes changed: Fishboi:dfw, Fishboi:sdf, Fishboi:nyc, etc.

“After moving to San Francisco, the inspiration to work on my style of music became consuming. . .

I kept turning on the radio and turning it off. It seems the 80's and 90's truly had died with regards to Pop music. Melodic grooves with well written vocals were a vanishing breed. My first album, Schooled Beneath the Surface, was my first experiment to revive that genre. I believe I had great inspiration, but have just scratched he surface”.

“My music Style seemed to take on a life of it’s own.  I am working towards my own genre in the style of bands like those of the 70’s:  Audio Soundscapes, Audio Landscapes;  story telling with music.  Few of my pieces are ever less than 8 minutes long -- and as much as I would love to write a 4-minute pop song, my music seems to “ Breathe” on it’s own.”

My second album, "The Bubble Machine" is in final production now, with a release date of Nov, week2.  "Global", is slated for next year, ( spring ) and will focus on purer structures and more classical elements, but with a twist of Japanese influenced Pop.  Think:  Edvard Munch's "The Scream" meets "The Power Puff Girls" . . . in music.
