Because the World Needs More Cheese…

… I’ve uploaded the uncut, massive single MP3 version (please right click and save the file, as it’s huge!) of the second-to-last musical performance I ever made in Saskatoon, back in 1998. My friend Mike invited me, my ex (the vocalist on the track), and two DJs I knew from high school (Phil Greer and Keenan Gauthier) to perform at what he was then calling “parties” (because, I think, “rave” was passé by then.

Piles Of Free Music (Featuring Me)

Okay, for those of you interested, there’s a big old pile of snippets from my most recent musical history added to this site. In the sidebar, you can see the link under Pages that says, “Tunes (with me in ’em)”; if you click on it (or on this link), you’ll be taken to a page with one full out-of-print Dabang album, snippets from the still-in-print one, and a remixed recording of a live concert I did at a rave with a live ambient group back in 1998. If you plan on listening repeatedly, please download instead of streaming it, because …
