Corporate Anthem FAIL
The assignment: write and record a school song/national anthem for a sports team that sounds like a huge men's chorus. Demo it up in less than a week. We really had fun doing it. We listened to a lot of school songs. Sellout came up with the composition. Singers were hired. We had a concert band standing by to replace the demo instruments. But as is often the case, now it's dead. And while we can't share the whole thing with you, here's a little taste. Stay with it. Behind-the-scenes with singers can be a little scary. And yes, that hat I'm wearing makes me look like a itinerant NASCAR fan.

Bird Song
Cool video from film director/musician Jarbas Agnelli. Birds on the Wires from Jarbas Agnelli on Vimeo. Reading a newspaper, I saw a picture of birds on the electric wires. I cut out the photo and decided to make a song, using the exact location of the birds as notes (no Photoshop edit). I knew it wasn't the most original idea in the universe. I was just curious to hear what melody the birds were creating. I sent the music to the photographer, Paulo Pinto, who I Googled on the internet.
