<strong>SIGHT</strong>
We are all connected together. Like it or not, we are bound irrevocably by chemistry, environment, history, shared experience, stories, desires, and memory. The wonder of our experience is almost lost to us in our day to day chores. We live almost entirely disconnected from ourselves, and the world around us.

SIGHT is a piece about the formation and conjugation of a memory. An expression of wonder and communion through visual memory.

Heaven - Sunshine Jones' How's your heart - How's your head Re-Edit

After reading an interview with Jim Kerr from the Simple Minds I broke out my colored vinyl copy of 'New Gold Dream' and lay on my living room floor listening. It brought back a lot of feelings. I read up on Steve Lillywhite's guitar production technique and discovered that he actually played a lot of the guitar on the records he produced. 
I looked at the original file of 'Big Sleep' as a potential re edit, but reconsidered and chose to do something more pure. I used a Juno 106 for the main melody, MiniMoog for the bass, Casio drums, and processed my acoustic guitar as per Mr. Lillywhite's instructions. I think that it's interesting in a vintage sort of way, having stripped the needy feelings from the original and left it electronic. It creates more of an open space for us, and so far I think I like it. Dunnoe. Gotta listen some more.

Big Sleep - Sunshine Jones

I played a fantastic festival called Cascadia this past weekend. So many talented, amazing, beautiful, generous, and far out heads gathered up in the mountains above Granite Falls, Washington and connected. I don't really have words to describe how amazing it was, but swimming in the river, the mud pool, the swimming hole, the perfect sound systems, the wonderful music, the delicious food, the stars, the rain, the sun, and the dancing! The dancing may have been the best.

I hosted a Play Live! Seminar and then brought my things over to the Forest stage backstage area with Tait, and we walked in on Megan having an awkward moment with the fabric meant to stretch around the table for my spaceship to play live on.
She was worried about a section of the fabric which was the other way around - shiny side up. We smiled, and assured her it wasn't important.
But Megan actually made like she was going to rip up the fabric and flip it around to make it "perfect."
Tait and I stopped her and explained that it was dark, and there was no way anyone would be like "Oh dude, look at the table cloth and that weird shiny patch!"
So we agreed that it was already perfect, and I joked about writing a song called "Shiny Tablecloth" and playing it that night in my set.
I did.
When Tait heard the words I had looped and mangled as they slowly became untangled he laughed so hard he fell out of his chair.
People were all "Dude, are you ok?"
Well... sadly Megan missed this moment. So I spent some of today playing it live into my reel to reel deck until I got a mix I was happy with, and here it is.

This is for you, with love, from me.
Enjoy it, have fun, and don't sweat the things that don't matter at all. "Perfection" is a state of fear... even a diamond is made more beautiful by it's flaws. Perfect is being in the present tense, as often as we can be. Here and now.
I love you.

Longtime - Sunshine's Dub Mix - Jaswho?

Sunshine Jones is often called a "house legend" from San Francisco. A founding member of Dubtribe Sound System. He also makes electronic music by himself. He travels the world performing a live/DJ set - live mixing, singing, re editing on the fly, and championing the idea that literally anything you can syncopate is house music. He re edits for leisure, experiments with electronics for adventure, is often in an airplane, and is very kind to children.

Sunshine Jones believes in love. That said, he understands that sometimes love is difficult to imagine. 

Sunshine Jones believes in you.
