“I’ve seen you already, all of you. You’re reflecting like muddy crowd in every puddle of this city, reeling in tight alleys, opening your dry lips just to put a curse, when you already cursed by yourself.”

After dealing with some unexpected health issues recently, I decided to embark on a daily walk every morning, and ended up finding solace and healing in the mossy forests of western Washington. Earthwalker is inspired by all my time spent here wandering through the trees.

Ladies' Nite In Buffalo - Charvel San Dimas Seymour Duncan JB & 59

Set out to write a metalcore tune and ended up with this slice of Devin Townsend-esque madness.  It will be fun trying to develop this further.

Recorded in Studio One, guitars are a Charvel with Fishmans, amps are Tonex, bass is Submission Audio Nik Nokturnal, drums are Toontrack Duality II.

Drop C Devy idea

This one was made 2020 - found it on the g-drive. Had forgotten it ... but, this is just feeling the guitar, nothing else - pure free flow of metal guitar tone through the veins. And I love 1980s thrash metal guitar sound - just listened Nuclear Assault - Trail of Tears - that guitar tone, damn. Hopefully, I will find it .. one day !..!

The Dark of Man

Dark of Man - 2 guitars mainly - early demo (2020) - Remastered 30.3.2025  (Aurora)

Found a battery sample, jamming and filling the gaps.

Riding With Mat Caz (At Night)

On this Straturday Night episode of JohnnyBeaneTV, we debut our brand-new show intro! Let us know what you think in the comments—this one’s longer so I can handle behind-the-scenes work like tweeting out the live feed, activating Nightbot, and getting the studio lights dialed in before going on camera.

🎤 We kick things off talking about the David Lee Roth concert at Mountain Winery on Friday night. The band was on fire, Roth was legendary, and if you’re a Van Halen fan who missed it—you seriously missed out. We also dive into other classic 70s and 80s artists who shaped the era.

🎥 Then we roll some exclusive b-roll footage:
 • Music Therapy Laz, Bay Area Rich, and I exploring Guitar Showcase in San Jose, digging through the parts bin.
 • Octopus Ears, Alex Radford, and Laz joining me at Danville Music in Danville, CA, checking out killer guitars.

🛠️ Back at the workbench, it’s guitar mod time! Ron swaps pickups in his Crackle Jackson, while I install a Squier Telecaster neck onto a Strat body—using a leftover loaded pickguard from a Leo Jaymz kit. Everything snapped right together, but I’m already eyeing another pickguard for a future upgrade.

🎬 Plus—we had a blast in the chat guessing my all-time favorite movie. Did you guess it right?

This episode is packed with rock talk, guitar shop adventures, and some serious hands-on mods. Don’t miss it!

On this episode of Talking Guitars on Johnny Beane TV, we hit the workbench and dial in one of my Squier Fender Stratocasters with some fresh fixes and tweaks.

I am a freestyle metal / alternative rocker and heavily influenced by 80s music in general. 

The link below is a COLLAB with Chris - Industrial / Electronic / Speed / Dark Metal vibes ... really enjoyed writing the lyrics and doing the vocals - Big Thanks to Chris - CHECK OUT  Programmed Minds

I do have an excellent drummer on my corner who blasts the beats and with whom I compose the tracks.

In Gaza / Ukraine / Russia and the rest of the conflicted world, people die - day in day out, we as a human race could care a bit more.

The raging wars serve as a catalyst for the lyrics in most of the existing and upcoming songs. It seems that killing each other is the only way forward as written in the lyrics on the song - The Violent Ones.

These are some of the dark layers of life

TAPATORA name has multiple meanings. It is an ancient name for a male that was mainly used in Finland. It is also the name of an island near Tampere and if you translate it into English, it means kill the quarrel / dispute / wrangle.

I spent my youth screaming down a mic, and in later life I have transitioned to writing solo at home. Main instruments are guitar and a variety of VSTs.
