All songs have the potential for greatness, and all songs have the potential to fail. As a listener, I try to squeeze the most out of every song, band and album. Music is a place to connect, to disconnect, to zone out and to be alert. As a musician, I search for the pulp, the flesh of any beat or melody. As a writer, I search for the trite, contrived and cliche buried in the back of the mix. I dig it all up, or I bury it, and either way I'm happy. As a DJ, I play the songs that are worth listening to, and the songs that are worth playing; the best in classical, experimental, ambient, drone, math, thrash, grind, metal, hip-hop, indie, rock, hardcore, poetry, spoken word and more.
