Checkout: 1of365 (Jonathan Wilson Photography Blog, a Photo for Every Day)

I came across a (less than six month old) new blog today that I found interesting, because it is MiA.

MiA is a blend of: the airport acronym, and the word meaning "mine" in Spanish.

Something that is MiA is said to represent Miami, and belong to it, (in a way right?).

Please visit 1of365.

P.S. checkout the photograph for December 6th; it is tree.

First TEEPEE show at Churchills Sweat Records Relief Show.





















Probably every band in Miami has had their first real
show at Churchills. On thursday September 25, 2008
was my first show at churchills (not by choice) along with
the band "Little Beard" which I highly recommend checking
out. The show was a benefit show for Sweat Records, which
was broken into and had a bunch of equipment stolen and
valuables vandalized. The turn out was one of the best ive
seen in a along time at churchills. Many thanks to Ricardo from "Animals of the Arctic" and Jesse Jackson. Other great bands performed as well; HA HA HELP, DINO FELIPE, ANIMALS OF THE ARCTIC, and ELECTRIC BUNNIES.
Along with acoustic acts inside the pub. Overall the show came out extremely well with a lot of positive energy from all the bands and the audience.

TEEPEE (Band from Miami)


TEEPEE


This is a new solo project I am working on. I am based out of Miami, FL. The music is based off of Punk Rock, Noise, Improvisation, and snotty vocals (There is form in the music). It consists of a drum beat, taped down keys on a keyboard with effects, guitar, and vocals. My ideas for the music is to have a constant beat and drone going throughout the whole song; Since I am limited to only 2 things going on in the music, It forces me to think a lot differently of structure and color within the music. And since I am not interacting with anyone else I have to tap into deeper thoughts for creativity and I can do what I please.

And as I mentioned earlier that the keys are taped down; I purposely tape down one key, for example C. Then all the melodies and chords I play will then revolve around that one note. So I will be doing a collection of "Hopefully" 12 songs (for all the ascending notes in music). C C# D D# E F F# G G# A Bb.

I will be doing all the album packaging and art work myself. At the moment they will be in limited numbers just because I have to do all the work myself. The picture above are the CD's being designed.
