Beautiful

Beautiful (spontaneous song)[Audio clip: view full post to listen]- I love creating on the spot, especially in music. To be able to do this you need a band that is led by The Spirit, which is what you get at Life Bible Church. There is a strong value in seeking His presence. This piece came [...]

Spotify

Have you heard of Spotify? You have had to of by now if you listen to music at all and aren’t an oldster.  Spotify is the bomb! Have you ever wanted to listen to a song by an artist you never heard? how about listening to an entire album? How about listening to over 6 [...]

The Eponymous Album Update #6 | A Blessing

My prayers for a miracle have been answered!
Well, as you may know from recent posts, I had a hard drive crash. The hard drive circuit board fried and it caused some damage to the physical disc. I sent the drive to DriveSavers because I get a discount for being a Professional Photographers of America member [...]

A New Band | Hobby or Profession?

Friday night I met with 2 other worship leaders, (Jon Green and Michelle Lind) and one wacked out drummer (Josh Heidrick), for what may be the beginnings of a new band. Josh had suggested we all get together to see what happens. After a little conversation via Facebook, we all agreed on Friday night.
The practice was [...]

I Am Undone By You

by Heath McConnell
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
You have given so much!
You have given life
You have given breath
You have given Love
We are consumed by you!
You have given shelter
You have given food
You have given healing
We are consumed by you!
You have given freedom
You have given power
You have given grace
I am consumed by you.
I have set my heart apart
All my desires I [...]

The Eponymous Album Update #6 | The Verdict

I thought I would offer an update on the situation since I just received word on my drive situation.
Well, I just got word back from DriveSavers. The hard drive had electrical failures and damaged some of the disk. They said they were confident that they could retrieve all of the data for $1500-$2160. Unfortunately I [...]

The Eponymous Album Update #5 | The Crash

Today I set up the gear as usual to begin recording the last couple songs. I plugged in the external drive to the power supply but didn’t hear any startup noises.  I thought it was strange.  I tried a few thing and decided to investigate. I unplugged the eSATA wire and tried it… nothing.  I then [...]

The Eponymous Album Update #4 | Recording Workflow

I thought I would post an update on the status of my Eponymous album. I have been working really hard on getting this project done before the end of the year – completing at least one song per day. With this schedule I have recorded 10 songs so far and have three or four more [...]

The Eponymous Album: Update

In an attempt to actually get my material out, I have opted to offer an album that the songs are not so much stripped down versions as they are the beginnings of each song… How they started… Each song has began with an acoustic guitar and an Idea (or spontaneity). I tried to capture that [...]

National Federation of the Blind-Oregon State Convention

on October 9, 2009, I joined with Carla McQuillan to play Irish Drinking songs one evening during the convention.  To tell you the truth, I did not know what to expect.  I didn’t know if there would be 1,00 people or 10 or anything else for that matter.  It turns out that we were playing [...]

Is Apple Mainstage 2 a Disaster

Since I am a guitar player, the enhancements to Mainstage 2 were very welcomed, but there is no way on earth you are getting me to use MainStage 2 live until Apple fixes this Double-MainStage1-Resource-Hog. You have to be able to trust that, while your playing live, everything is rock solid. Your reputation demands it. [...]

Free Song Download-Wild Mood Swings

Sometimes we have them, sometimes we don’t. I tend to have them often and decided to put it to music. Kind of electronic. This song was written when I was trying to figure myself out. I came to the conclusion that I am a mystery to myself. I think we are all a mystery [...]

Video | Stephen Roach-Deeper

This is a video that reminded me of how it is leading prophetic and spontaneous worship… how His presence comes… how it begins to get thick in the room… how the beat that I long for is there, whether musicians are there or not to play those beats. these are the sounds I hear calling [...]

David Lebolt leaves Digidesign for Apple

It seams rather interesting that Lebolt has chosen Apple over all the other DAW manufacturers, but what will that do to Pro Tools? Lebolt was the mastermind behind all the fresh PT releases lately and has been deemed “Mr. Digidesign”.
I look forward to all he may bring to the Logic Pro table.
