It Was Me, It Was You

Preserve Your Memory

One of my original songs, recorded at a party with musicians who read the chord chart I scribbled on the back of a copy of Sentimental Journey. It came out just as we rehearsed it! ;-)

Vox - Jen Cintron
Guitar - Arthur Fowler
Bass - John Minnich
Percussion - Dena Aronson

Pardon Me

I catch up with Vince DiCola, who composed the music for both Rocky IV and Transformers: The Movie. Vince tells me how he landed both iconic movies. He collaborated with Frank Stallone on the Staying Alive soundtrack. Vince has a big show coming up on September 20th at the Whiskey a Go Go in Los Angeles.

Lyrics:

No I don’t mean it
Or do I
I shape it so I don’t become it
Or do I

If sleep can’t unspool it
If death can’t wake it
If I scrape my knees when I hit the ground
The devils get toothless this time

Wrong again
I’m wrong again my love

Is it any wonder that no one can find you at home?
Is it any wonder that no one can find you at home?

Take one to grow big
Two to grow small
Take it and take it and take it
I take until I disappear

Wrong again
I’m wrong again my love

Is it any wonder that no one can find you at home?
Is it any wonder that no one can find you at home?
Is it any wonder no one...
Is it any wonder I can’t find it
Is it any wonder that no one can find you alone?

Two To Grow Small

The Dream Song

this track was made at 2:32 am and I woke my mom up because I was screaming into my little headphone mic...hope it was worth it. the cover artwork is mine pz don't steal it <3

do you think about me?

I love me some Kaiju films, extremely difficult video games, chiptunes, Mark Knopfler, running and running. 

You should totally check out people I follow, EKSF, DYA, Lloyd Foster and Big Syn to name a few. 

About Me:
Born in California,
My first memory of playing music was when I began to play on a little Children's reed organ my mother had from when she was a child.  The first song I taught myself was the "Jigglypuff Song" from Pokemon.

Shortly after seeing my interest, my parents roped me into piano lessons alongside my sister Susie. I must have been about 12 or 13. We had lessons for about a year and a half from a nice lady, Ms. Henderson In Yreka, Ca. I do not remember her first name.

After lessons were done I stopped playing because I had no motivation. Later on in high school my father would purchase a piano and along with it a little digital loop pedal.  There I would mix my first terrible song for my girlfriend at the time. It was awful... 

I continued to push my musical abilities but it wasn't until playing guitar hero that I fell in love with the guitar. I fell hard, I started to play whenever I could and went on to make an abomination of an album titled "Bad Handwriting" that was named after my terrible handwriting.

It was awful, you have no idea. 

It was only after a series of unfortunate events that I realized I had been wasting valuable time and decided I would lock myself in a room and in essence, wouldn't allow myself to do anything until I finished the songs I felt strongest about.

Now I'm doing everything in my power to become a successful musician but not at any cost. I wanna do it a way I can feel proud about, alongside other great musicians. Soundcloud has proven to me that there is great indie music available at our fingertips.

It Was Me, It Was You
