In Our Wake By The Spooky Moon ( Original Song )

Image
Here is a song I wrote that is featured on my album Temples and Pyramids  from October 2013. This song is a little pop song & I think really defines the direction of the entire album. Lyrically the song is about moving forward in life and not dwelling in the past in a way that is not self destructive. Musically it reminds you of the later years of The Beatles. Thanks for listening: The Spooky Moon

My Opinion about The Needle Drops video Titled "It Came from Bandcamp!"

Image
I was on twitter... like I always am in the morning and I came across this image The Needle Drop posted. I would have to totally agree with whom ever emailed this message to him. The Needle Drop  is in a position where he can shine light onto artists that have little to no name for them selves and possible good things can happen to that artist. Instead he digs up the worse junk on Bandcamp.com and tells the world about it. Why not do something useful and show people good bands? Additionally not all bandcamp.com bands suck. I personally have found some great bands and I must say the great music might be a lot harder to find because they are using common search tags such as "RocknRoll" and "RapMusic". I would also have to add from my own experience that I do think a lot of the bands on bandcamp.com are either quite generic sounding or not worthy of being recognized. A lot of major labels use bandcamp.com to help sell there albums. Bandcamp.com is just anoth

Smugglers Bounty Cantina Box.

Image
So today I received my first Smugglers Bounty Box and it's a box of cool Star Wars stuff from Funko. I was really hoping for the Blue Snaggle Tooth, but it is a random thing so you can't expect to win every time. I also got the Han Solo shirt, which is the shirt I wanted the least of the four shirts. The three other shirts had aliens on them and I would have been happier with any of them. I am still very happy with everything over all. The Obi Wan Kenobi is really cool, I like how it is not your standard stance holding a light saber. I am looking forward to the next box in two months. Cheers: Ryan

Le Butcherettes - Masquerade - Atlanta - March 15th, 2016

Image
On March 15th I went to see The Le Butcherettes and up until two weeks ago I had never heard of them. How I discovered them was on complete accident and I forget what I was watching on YouTube, but YouTube has this auto play feature and I was doing something else online and was just listening to an interview and the auto play feature went to an interview with Teri Gender Bender and I was impressed by her self expression of her music and just her personality and character really captured me. So I liked the video and my Twitter account is connected to my YouTube account and then a day or two later I got a like and a follow from the Le Butcherettes Twitter account. I then followed her back and went to http://lebutcherettes.net/  and learned they were on tour in about two weeks time and I then bought my ticket and attended the concert at the Masqerade in Atlanta. I then started listening to them on Spotify and I was even more impressed. Her music reminded me of Bikini Kill with a bit

Ghostly Light & Recent Nice Comments.

Image
Here is a version of one of my newer songs called Ghostly Light. It will be featured on my October 2016 album. I am trying something new in this video, by playing a bass drum along with my guitar and voice. I think it sounds cool and I will be inputting this drum feature into my live performances. Also this morning I received some nice comments about this song and I will be sharing the comments below. Cheers: Ryan

New Ghost song / Album in October 2016.

I am working on more songs, slowly. I am not as quick with creativity as I use to be when I was in my 20's. I wish this music thing was my full time job, because I would not disappoint fans, if I had fans. This song is going to be on an Halloween themed album I plan to release in October 2016! I want to release two digital albums this year. I have talked about this on my twitter, but not in a blog like this one as of yet. Anyway enjoy the song! Cheers: Ryan of the Spooky Moon!
