Listen to ME!

Okay, for people who skim… I’m gonna make this clear, because I mentioned it before but someone mentioned not seeing it.
There are some recordings available on this website of me performing music. The Dabang Band tracks are probably very familiar, but the Apocrypha tracks may not be. So I’ve added them to my music [...]

Why Blog?

One of my friends recently asked me that question: Why blog?
