David and Rudy Thomas - I See Nothing (Live)by dmtspeck Rudy and I went to an open mic at Money Plays on Thursday January 5th and we got to play one of my songs for a crowd of about 30 or so. Take a listen! The open mic is hosted by Mike Ziethlow and he does something pretty awesome for the performers: he records and mixes every track throughout the night and uploads it to his website, vegasonthemic.com One of the other performers, Jen Creason, snapped photos of all the acts so huge thanks to Mike & Jen for being so supportive of the local music scene. Go check out their websites, download some tracks, look at some photos...lots of underground-ness for your listening pleasures.
Here it is! I worked on some animation over a month or two and my band used the clips in our first music video, Damage. Now, go and leave a comment, favorite it, or whatever...but definitely subscribe to 3d6 on youtube.
Yo. When I made this, it was 2008. Even though I worked on it solo, it still went under the artist name of The Tryforz and the album is titled The Invisible Step. I remember that I wanted to mix like everything that I could think of fitting into the song at the time.
Yo. This song is really old. I recorded it years ago using this program called Riffworks. This song gets pretty wild. I don't think it's that bad considering how much I feel that I have improved since then.
Tattered by dmtspeck Yo. I made this song around September 2009 and I decided to upload it because I think it's pretty cool. I always wondered how to upload songs...but what sucks about Soundcloud is that I think they want you to pay money and you can only upload like two hours of stuff for free...but still. Two hours. But Itunes says I have 1.8 days of music...So I need two days. Not two hours. You greedy bastards! Anyway, check it out!
G MINOR by dmtspeck I did this a couple weeks ago but I just put it onto cd then onto the computer and did all that fancy conversion-ness to get it onto soundcloud and the blog. SO enjoy. IN OTHER NEWS...the digi-recorder has this plastic scrolling piece...and it is now dysfunctional which practically renders the device USELESS as there is NO WAY to perform certain actions such as audio scrubbing, scrolling easily through tracks, SELECTING VIRTUAL TRACKS FOR MIXING(!!!!HUGE!!!) and lots of other stuff. SO...GIANT SAD FACE.
Breaking by dmtspeck I recorded this song last month and I have always been wondering if there is some easy way to post audio tracks onto my blog or any website for people to listen to...well thanks to my homie SAREone it finally hit me in the side of the face! So check it suckas!
Yo! Here is a ton of stuff I've been doing lately. I have been working on this 3d effects advertisement piece for a class. Randolf suggested I tie in some type of watery Vegas theme club so I was thinking either Rain or Wet Republic or something. So I vectorized the logo with Illustrator and brought it into Maya after I did all this ocean and cloud magic that I do. There is just a sample render for now and I know that the symbol is backwards but whatever I still got some time.
I also did a Bob Marley painting and a Basil Gogos master copy in my sketchbook for fun. Didn't spend too long on them but I think they look cool. Then there are some charcoal drawings from September 11th. I thought the workshop went pretty damn well. It was like medium/long poses and I was just being loose but still thinking a bit about the lessons I have learned. What I really wanted was to just incorporate what I like to see in other people's life drawings. Rhythms and curves, but hard lines and edges can still serve a purpose in my opinion. For design and contrast at least. But I had a show that night too so it put me in a strange mood.
Somebody took a very dark video and I didn't notice because I was four beers in and had my glasses off hahaha! We are a Weezer cover band and we are called I'm Your Daddy. Here is us playing Troublemaker at Money Plays.
