blogging since 2004
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. https://www.mixcloud.com/soulcruzer/mj014-the-mad-ones-20211021-190152/ The Musical Journey Show #14 Here’s the playlist from last night I Melt with…
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 as both my webcam and…

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 than a philosophically oriented podcast.…
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 the radio with the likes…

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 you’ll join me there: https://open.spotify.com/user/1150838290/playlist/6LTiLHAMxebfUrLnEWo1k9
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 Getaway album. What probably skews…
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
This past week Spotify rolled out the Daily Mix. So in addition to the Discover Weekly (which I like very much), Spotify are now serving up a daily mix of songs based on your listening habits. Tapping into your own history of albums and tracks that you have listened to on the platform, Daily Mix…
This is some totally geeked out stuff, but pretty cool. Pawel Zadrozniak (a.k.a. “Silent“) recently created a great rendition of the song “Black or White” by Michael Jackson on The Floppotron, which consists of 64 floppy drives, 8 hard drives, and 2 scanners. Hmmm…I’m looking around my office now to see what I can make…
Something different from Somalia beside the usual reports of death and destruction:
