Hey Everyone!
Hope you are doing as well as can be. I'm in the midst of designing all the packaging for the new album, Creatures of the Late Afternoon. The idea is to package the 2LP with a "turntable board game." The game uses special tracks cut at the end of each side of the record (not part of the digi...

This was my very first studio recording. The year was 1986. I was in sixth grade. The town where I lived, Vancouver BC, was hosting the World Exposition: EXPO 86. It was on the site where the Vancouver Science World and Olympic Village are today. In it's Plaza of Nations, there was Studio 86, one of the more popular attractio...

If you had to choose one quarantine puzzle activity... which of the following three would you prefer?
By the way, this may or may not end up being a Carpal Tunnel Syndrome 20th anniversary thingy. I have to look into the logistics of it all but I wanted to get a feel for what the puzzle people o...

Hi Everyone!
Just wanted to give you a little update on the new album. But first! here's a picture of a proof from the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome cover from decades ago! Back in the age of the compact disc! Remember those?? When the pressing plant packages your CDs or vinyl, they send you these proofs before your disc...

For those of you who enjoy watching somebody in the present play a video game from the past. This is a clip form the Vinoids video game that was included on the enhanced CD of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Many people didn't know the game was there as you had to insert the disc into your computer's CD drive to find it.
It sti...

Although technically true of all moments, every now and then you experience something you are acutely aware will never happen again... or at least not in the same way. One of those times for me was the day of this performance. Many moons ago, Deltron 3030 was invited to perform on The Late Show with David Letterma...

This was the very first hip hop vinyl I ever bought. I was 13 years old. I bought it with my own paper route money. That piece of tape with the BPM written on it is decades old! Time flies but it still feels like yesterday. It was a 12" single from Public Enemy's album 2020-06-04 19:24:16 +0000 UTC View Post

Seeing as it's the 20th anniversary of my debut album Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, I hope you don't mind me sharing a few stories about that "futuristic" time in the past.
It was the year 2000. Which at the time sounded very futuristic. The 90s were officially over. Y2K was going to usher in a ...

At the time of recording this album, I was living alone in an apartment on St. Denis Street in Montreal. In that neighborhood, you would find a few of the best second hand record stores in the city... so it was no coincidence that I signed a rental lease there. Most of my days were spent walking and digging through record sho...

Here's a kind of silly but true story. In 2006, I released an album entitled "Your Mom's Favorite DJ". It was my third album. I had wanted it to feel like a continuous audio adventure (similar to the Scratchcratchratchatch tape). Although it was going to be released on vinyl and CD, I wanted t...

I've learned a lot of things from listening to records. But my earliest experiences with vinyl recordings were with storybook 7" read-along records. My mother bought them for me because she had read somewhere that they would foster a love of reading in preschool aged children.
Yes, I did eventually learn to read in scho...
