Big Reflections
It’s fall. The days are shortening, the air is crispening, the colors are morphing, the leaves are falling. There is a palpable and present sense of transformation amongst us. Fall and its energy of change often inspires reflection. Many choose to pause and consider the patterns and habits of daily life and how they align…
We Don’t Choose Our Feelings
I loved Grandma. When I first learned she died, I paused for a moment to reflect on the situation. I thought about my dad and wondered how he was feeling, knowing he just lost his mother. I’ll admit though, I wasn’t particularly sad. She was 91. The last several years of her life had been…
Franny
There once was a band. Its name was Squish Rat. It was radical. It was unstoppable. But then it got stopped. By what? Good question. Too much talent? Definitely not. It was something other than that, but we’ll likely never know the actual answer. The song I’m about to share is like a charred and…
Tryptamine
DMT is a helluva drug. Here’s an ode to wildest psychedelic out there. This one’s also a bit more introspective, emotional, and dare I say, serious, than the other songs I’ve uploaded. On the note of DMT, here is my semi-annual request to all my friends out there who might have access to some things:…
I Have A Problem With Math
It’s true, I do. Not a math problem, though. I’ve already solved this particular math problem. The solution was never in doubt. I’m also not saying that I struggle with math. I get by just fine with my mathing, thank you very much. What I’m saying is, I have a grievance with the subject of…
Oops, I did it again
Ah man, for real? More music? Again, I’m sorry, but quit whining, and just giv ‘er a listen. This next track is very different from the last track I uploaded. Dare I say, it’s more in line with the soul feel of Yolo69420.blog, meaning it’s highly immature and sassy as hell. Backstory- basically, I took…
Sorry, I Wrote More Music
I know, I know. Not what the readership is looking for in this blog, but I did, and now I’m obliged to share it. My apologies. It will definitely happen again though… So this is a tune I almost entirely wrote with the electronic piano preset on my keyboard. I had no agenda when I…
The Captain and The Coke
Recently, an odd and random memory came to me. Now, my memory of the past is, by and large, shit. It’s extremely spotty. Usually when I become aware of something from my distant past, I’m fascinated because it’s like I’m recovering something lost, something so ancient that it feels like it doesn’t actually belong to…
Banana Bread
Fate, I think for the most part, is horseshit. I simply don’t believe in it. Things happen circumstantially, not because of some predetermined destiny. Relationships, even incredible ones, are not the result of fate. Well, except for one. There is one known relationship in this universe that is so right, good, and harmonious that its…
The Mother of All Endurance
Merriam Webster defines endurance as “the ability to withstand hardship or adversity.” It’s a wonderfully nonspecific definition, implying there are endless forms of endurance. Inspired by my wife’s recent birthday, I’d like to speak of a remarkable form of endurance I regularly witness from her and other moms. Dare I say, I’m pretty fit, and…
