#AudioMo Day 5 a little trip down memory lane has me thinking when do family and friends start becoming strangers to each other?
The Meta/Quest 2 is a standalone VR headset, which means you don't need a computer to use it. If you're just getting into VR, I'd recommend the Quest 2. The price is decent and the performance is superb. It's my VR headset of choice.

It’s late Saturday afternoon. I’m in my office and part time studio. I’m recording another episode of Radio Soulcruzer, my music podcast styled with a radio aesthetic. It’s my opportunity to let my inner radio disc jockey come out and play. The genre i’m exploring in this episode is Nu...
OK. I’m feeling a little nostalgic tonight, and I’m in the mood to listen to some tunes. I’ve been firing on all cylinders today, and now I’m ready to let my hair down. I thought I’d be a bit frivolous tonight and share my 80’s music crushes. My Top Ten...
Everyone (or at least everyone with a Spotify account) is currently posting their 2022 music streaming activity on social media. Well, I thought I’d join in the fray and post my Spotify year-in-review highlights. Let’s start off with my number one listened to song on Spotify. It’s from the Venom...
“The first lesson a revolutionary must learn is that he is a doomed man.” Huey Newton Before I start, I need to thank @SMWGeek for writing The Album That Makes Me Love Autumn and Reflect on his blog yesterday as a part of our 30 Day Blog Challenge with @MrFresh....
“When Ugly Kid Joe sold their souls to the devil in the pursuit of rock ‘n’ roll they drove a harder bargain than Robert Johnson at the Crossroads. Not only did they trade their souls for over thirty years of globetrotting and metal extravagance. They also haggled to keep their...
It’s been a hot minute since I last did a Mixcloud live stream. There’s no particular reason why not, I just haven’t. But it is my intention to get back in the game and stream more regularly. I’m not going to commit to a specific day or time. They’ll happen...
Last night, I returned to my radio presenter roots in terms of the style of the show. I think I’ll hang out in that space going forward. I’ll keep the chat lively, but in the chatbox, not on the stream. Here’s the playlist from last night I Melt with You...
It must be Spring. I’ve gone and given the blog a new paint job, which I’m prone to do from time to time. I spent a good chunk of time today consolidating my thinking – that and setting up my new GoPro Hero 9. I was hoping to use it...
I made this mixtape as a tribute to another fallen guitar hero – Eddie Van Halen.
I could have gone on for a while digging through the one hit wonders of my listening journey, but I’ve limited myself to these 15 One Hit Wonders! #OneHitWonderDay What’s your favourite one hit wonders? C
My friend Sarah and I met for a coffee. We were both trying to figure out where the heck to go to next with the podcast we’ve been working on for nearly 2 years. It’s a habit now, one that we want to grow. I can think of worse habits...
After about an 18 month hiatus, The Musical Journey Show is back. I’ll be kicking off the reboot with a trip back to 1982 when all us MTV babies were discovering bands like Dexys Midnight Runners, Culture Club, Men at Work, Soft Cell, Duran Duran and others. Yet still rocking...

Hi Friends, If you’re on Spotify, I’ve created a collaborative playlist, called, My Music Friends. I’d love for you to drop some tracks on there like what songs do you have on repeat right now, or something new you’ve discovered or just a song that you LOVE. Anyway, hope that...
One of favourite Michael Jackson tracks beautifully rendered finger guitar style. This guy, Misko has also done an awesome job with some other popular tracks too like Linkin Park’s In the End and Zombie by the Cranberries
Spotify has curated a playlist of my most played songs in 2016. There are a few tracks on here that I don’t remember playing, but then again, it’s been a long year. I don’t seem to be much into new music with exception of the Red Hot Chili Peppers’s The...
I’m sure you’ve been to the magic mirror and asked the question, “Who Am I?” Most days, I know the answer to that question. Some days I don’t. Today was one of those days. So I thought I’d get some help from The Who to help me remember. Soulcruzer
