Heh.
Well, yeah, back in April, I was in fact gigging again. At least I did one gig, and while it was a great deal of fun and an excellent launch to a summer of amazing adventures, all it really did was remind me that 2009 just doesn't have room for the dozens if not hundreds of hours of work needed to properly prepare for live sets.
Instead of techno, I've turned my focus on my lifestyle; I've moved out of my basement and onto a 39-foot sailing trimaran named 'Tie Fighter', and I'm living the technomadic dream. The muse has told me in no uncertain terms that I am to focus my creative energies on writing music for the guitar and mandolin, and I have started singing again after an eight-year absence. Being 'MUX' was fun, and perhaps I'll find that the drive to create pounding techno beats will return, but for now I've packed up the synths and put them into storage. I've been sailing around the Gulf Islands, I'm working on an album of acoustic music, and I'm even tossing around the idea of dipping my toes in the world of DJing - but who knows? This year is about adventure, not about sitting in my basement staring at a computer screen.
I'll leave this site online, but most of my web offerings are now being published on my blog site, http://disengage.ca.
