Just for fun, I decided it would be cool to see what one of the songs from “T-Shirts For Tourists” would sound like without all the heavy distortion and squashed frequencies.

8Asians wrote up this really great piece on the “Outsider” music video today. What makes this review so awesome for me is that the writer totally got what we were trying to say and seems to have connected with it as well. That is hugely satisfying for me. Thanks guys.

Thanks for the shout-out, Grace!

Had a wrap/release party for the “Outsider”music video on Fri complete with potluck, drinking games (which almost killed someone), two rooms of video games, impromptu end-of-the-party-lost-voice acoustic performances and these DVDs that we gave out to the cast and crew. Thank you to all my old and new friends alike. Also: why can’t anyone have a normal signature?

"Outsider" music video is done

Sat, 05 Nov 2011 21:57:00 -0700

Apparently I forgot to mention that we were doing a music video for “Outsider.”

Uh… so yeah. We were and we did. (I’m tempted to post a screenshot but our DP has told us not to.)

This was a long-gestating project between myself and one of my closest friends, director and writer NaRhee Ahn. Unbelievably we’d never worked together before. I guess it took a song like this, that she really connected with, to present us with the opportunity. She (as well as our producer Amy Cheong) worked tirelessly the past month on the music video and I’m so grateful to them for doing this thing with me. It’s small budget, big dream. But I’m proud of it and look forward to sharing it very soon.

I’m thinking of blogging about some specific topics re: the music video, as it was a really great experience. Not sure how many people would even read those entries, but it would force me to blog more, which I am “teh suck” at, as they say.

I realize I never posted this. Sean Miura and The Olympic to Vermont Project dance to a bunch of songs, including “At This Hour.” Yeah, I pretty much love this. It would be awesome to see them do the whole song.

OK folks, next Tue (5/17) my band and I will be at Tuesday Night Cafe playing songs from the new album. And the whole band will be there, which hasn’t happened since the last Speakerphone show. Facebook event page is here.

accidental facebook break

Mon, 09 May 2011 21:01:00 -0700

So I’m recovering from a bad cold or something and I was too proud to put a facebook status like, “being sick sucks!” or “need to get better before the party this weekend!” just to elicit comments from friends such as “awww, get better soon!” (disclaimer: if you are a girl, this behavior is OK. Don’t ask me to explain this)

And since the only thing I had to contribute to facebook would’ve been “being sick sucks!” I just didn’t go on at all. Two days turned into three turned into a week. I was off facebook for a week!! And you know what? It was strangely fine. I went back today cause I had some stuff I needed to post anyway and… everything’s the same! I’m kind of… disappointed. I think I went to a few friends’ profiles (read: my band) to see what was new and scrolled dispassionately through the deluge of bad party photos and Asian American entertainment news (note to self: expand circle of friends in order to dilute ratio of actor friends) and realized I wasn’t as addicted to facebook as I thought. Hm.

It was like someone took a fish out of water and the fish went, “no, I can’t breathe, put me back!!” And then started breathing and was like, “oh. I’m not a fish.”

First reviews of album are coming in now, apparently in real time. Quincy: “intro track somewhere between danceable and ominous-before-boss-stage videogame music. I approve.”
