I haven't put much on this blog in a rather long while. I may drop it altogether in the future.

2012
Hello 2012.
I'm a full on civilian again and starting school next week. The 'Force of Man' project is officially on the back burner. If the muse strikes me, I'll finish up the interludes, but I doubt it'll go beyond that.
I'm still searching for my groove. Unless Cease Fire gets picked up by Side-Line for the Face the Beat vol. 2 compilation, I'll be releasing that song as a freebie here soon. I'm still toying with the idea for doing a cover or two, but don't worry, there's new music in the pipe.
I have very much taken my 'terminal leave' as a vacation from everything, including my music to an extent. I've been enjoying my time with my wife and recharging my mental batteries.
I'm also hoping to have my studio (see uberlaut.com) up and running for 3rd party work. Mainly mastering or remixes. I've got all my software up to date now, though it's physically still a bit awkward. The Mackie mixer's FireWire card is still on the fritz, but I'm working around that in analog out mode.
Happy New Year everyone. Hope all is well and get going on those resolutions!

[U-D-R] Ringtones
A few months back I was trying to put together a udr-mobile app, but I couldn't quite get what I was looking for on a budget. I made some ringtones to go along with my mobile aspirations at that time. I was finally able to test those ringtones on a fancy real life iPhone 4 and they actually sound pretty good.
So here's the first of some December freebies:

State of Oppression (Dec 2011)
The state of [U-D-R]:
2011 has been an interesting year. I spent the majority of it in Korea with my last year in the US army. In a few days I'll be a full civilian again. I fired up a new version of the [U-D-R] website and released some new, previously unreleased and updated material. I had some great aspirations to have a new album fully underway by now and to have some live shows set up. The shows are too far off, though the next album from [U-D-R] is going to be further in the future than I'd anticipated. There will be a little more of the revamped "classic" material now and again in the meantime.
I'm planning to have something put together as a freebie by Christmas. Which will probably have a few select tracks from Cantonment, further remixed most likely. I'll keep in touch with the progress of that.
I started a second artistic project, although non musical. 'Altbears' They're a collection of ever expanding teddy bears with weapons of some kind. The selection is limited at the moment, though it grows as the muse strikes me.
In addition, I started writing some (very) short stories set in the universe I created over the past 20 years. That universe is a backdrop for a paper and pencil RPG I created in the mid 90s. I've dabbled in the mechanics now and again over the years, but I always was more interested in the world I'd created.
Lastly. Now that I'm back in Seattle, I'm going to try to land a DJ gig somewhere. I have set up a facebook page for my DJ alter ego with a mix I did. I had hoped to have more up by now, except things have been going slow.
I have some splash pages for my studio/label and future business. Though they remain window dressing for now.
Perhaps I'm trying to do too much at once... though, it's not a sense of being overwhelmed by my different project so much as a need to get away from them for a while. With periods of focusing on one or all of them for a while as well. September - December has been away time, with October (2010) - July being crazy creativity time.
I'm going to say this up front. I've always been a tech guy more than an artist / musician. So I'm more comfortable running a sound board than I am on stage. This is one of the hurdles of my musical aspirations.
I've also been aware of a feeling that I haven't been able to get over. Having been a former DJ, Live Sound Tech and having worked at clubs. I always felt like I was inside looking out. After I left Tucson, for the most part, things reversed. I remember being at a club in Germany, sitting there drinking and watching people dance. I felt a fairly profound sense of loss. I wasn't a DJ, I didn't know the DJ, I didn't work at the club and if not for my job with the USAREUR Band & Chorus, I would have been completely out of the entertainment / service industry.
It made me realize though, what a fan is. I remember in high school, thinking how cool it would be to meet my favorite musicians. Someone once asked me, "Would the world be a better place if Trent Reznor was President?" I thought about it for a minute and responded, "Probably not, he's just a person like you or I and wouldn't do a better job than any of us." From that point on, I more or less felt that people are all the same, famous or otherwise.
So back to the concept of the "fan." I know people who travel around the US to see their favorite bands several times. There are those who go out to clubs when they can't afford it, just to support the scene and their favorite DJs. Others buy merchandise and music online. "Fans" are the lifeblood of music and clubs. They are considerably more important than the artists, DJ and venue owners in a way. A musician for instance, needs hundreds if not thousands of "fans" to support themselves.
So, I've begun to completely ramble. To the "fans" out there, you rock! I live in a weird la-la land of half musician, half fan. So I'm equally awkward when dealing with other musicians as well as what fans I may have. Thanks for understanding ; )
Someday I can bury myself behind a mixer and make a living off of it and I won't have to deal with people anymore. A guy can dream, can't he? I leave an open invitation to smack me if I ever ignore the bands I'm mixing for. I hate it when I see sound guys who act like they're working at 7-11 and just don't give a shit.
As 2011 draws to a close, along with this blog post, I wish everyone a happy holiday season and a rockin' new year. I'll be around the internet when I'm able.
Egg-nog and Jaeger-bombs,

Face the Beat vol 2 and more
I'm putting the finishing touches on Cease Fire (version 6) for Side-Line Magazine's 'Face the Beat vol 2.' The deadline for submissions is tomorrow, so instead of being a month ahead, I'm a month behind. Which rings true for a lot of my musical and or audio work at the moment.
I've been back in Seattle a little over a month now and I've been trying to unwind from the army and learn to live like a civilian again. I've gotten a bit lazy on my vacation so far. Though, I'm off to school in January, so that should be interesting.
I had hoped to have more (if not all) of the 'Force of Man' interludes done by now. The 3rd one is mostly complete still and waiting on me to finish it up. It seems that it won't do it by itself.
Perhaps I'll get a little motivation from working on Cease Fire. Which turned out to be almost more difficult that writing a new song altogether. Many of the original files are incompatible or missing. Using bits of newer incarnation and trying to recapture the clean feeling of the original, while adding a contemporary touch has been a challenge.
Two for the future, last call for the past.

Apple Computer and my life. Thoughts after Steve Jobs' death.
How Apple computers shaped my three main creative outlets in life.
Imperium - a paper and pencil RPG 1992 - 1996 (I still tweak it now an again and write stories based on the universe I created for it)
Graphic Design / Digital Art 1993 - Present
[U-D-R] my never ending musical project 1996 - Present
*note: I'm sure I was an Apple fan boy back in the early to mid 90's. I still love them, but I've moved towards a much more, "Use what works best for you" attitude for the most part. So this is just my story, not me proselytizing at anyone ; )
1980s - Apple ][+ and ][e
Many great games educational or otherwise. Who can forget Oregon Trail at school, on an Apple ][ series? In a grade/grammar school computer lab, no less?! To my younger friends, I'm gonna go sit on my porch now. To my older friends, sorry, didn't mean to make you feel even older.
1990-1993 - Apple ][e and Mac LCII
I wrote the original computerized drafts of my never quite finished paper and pencil role-playing game, via Appleworks.
I learned a little bit about basic digital recording and editing on the LCII. Never leave your teenage children unattended with a microphone and a recording program, FYI for you parents out there.
I animated a series of adventures about a character called "Halo" in hypercard. As well as doing all the artwork for my RPG, pixel by pixel.
I got my first… and last, Mac Virus in 1993. Thanks to the "Barney Blaster" screensaver for After Dark™
1994 - Quadra 630
I made maps for Bungie's 'Marathon' games and put together artwork for custom map packs & scenarios.
I brought my RPG to it's more or less complete rule set.
Somewhere around here I started futzing around on mac BBS's and discovered 'MODs.' Which lead to me working with music a few years later.
I learned to type (incorrectly) on this computer, thanks to AOL chat rooms. This is also where I got my first *real* girlfriend, go me!
1996 - Quadra 630 upgraded to 16 MB RAM
I started working on remixes and some rudimentary original songs with a program called Meditor. Which was a MOD editor that was not limited to the 1MB sample sizes. Though it used a proprietary MMF file format.
I also started making some pretty fancy digital art with Bryce 3D. Sadly, I lost my of my 3D art skills through lack of use when I started writing music *all the freekin' time.*
1996-1997 - PowerComputing Power | 120
I got my first mac clone. Which due to some heat-sink defects got me a free upgrade to a PowerWave 604 | 120.
I did more remixes and original songs on this computer and tried to burn my first CD. Which failed due to the fact that I'd been working with 22Khz audio files. My first lesson in Red Book Audio.
Switching from Meditor to Logic Audio 1.0. I wrote the first [U-D-R] album. Along with learning that 72dpi, doesn't look good on a printed album cover. My first lesson in professional graphic design. I also discovered how big 300dpi PSD files and uncompressed Red Book Audio files were, yipes!
1998-1999 - Umax SuperMac S900 w/ G3 300MHz processor upgrade.
Essentially this computer was the ultimate in clone awesomeness short of multi-core processors.
I wrote Core, End of Entropy and Exile on the Umax clone.
I had pretty well figured out the basics of how to write, mix and master music around this time. As well as learning a lot more about graphic design.
I taught myself HTML 3.2 & 4 and started dabbling in web design on this computer.
1999 - 333MHz Grape iMac.
My first real Mac since the Quadra 630 and it's 33Mhz 68040 processor.
I ended up using this one mostly for games, word processing and internet. Lacking PCI card slots, it wasn't doing anything for my music.
2002 - 1GHz DP Power Mac (Quicksilver).
The Umax clone was my musical baby through the rest of that era's [U-D-R] songs and we started all the 'encode' side project tracks on that computer. Everything was moved over to the new Power Mac that year and the Umax clone (and the 604) lived on as a fileserver (and extra Starcraft box) for several years. Those two clones were based on the 8500/9500 Power Macs, so I could mix and match parts to keep them alive.
This is also when I started using OS X and became a computer retard. Under OS 9 and earlier systems, I was pretty well a "power user" as we called it back in the day and could fix about anything wrong with a 90's Mac. Since then, I've had 1 (yes, just one) Kernel Panic and a couple of freezes (with thousands upon thousands of constantly operating computing hours). My brain lost the ability to troubleshoot something that never broke.
2004 - PowerBook G4
My first laptop went with me to Iraq and hosted the creation of a few [U-D-R] songs. Also, the original video for 'Song for the Dead' was edited on that computer. It got too hot and maybe a little sand in it, but it still limps along and was featured at my wedding as one of those digital picture frames.
It went along to Iraq again in 2008, NTC in 2009 and JRTC in 2010. Later on it was mainly for word processing, web surfing/chat and a portable DVD player (with a whopping 15.2 inch screen).
2006 - MacPro 2.66GHz Dual 2 Core Tower
After the old quicksilver Power Mac finally choked half to death on WoW and Logic 7. I upgraded to my current desktop. My music found it's way in from time to time… in between gaming sessions. It was plagued by a series of flawed ATI X1900 512MB video cards that overheated to the point of discoloring the metal on the back of the PCI-E/AGP slots. Eventually, I got a revision 2 version of the card and all was well (and fully covered by warranty, even 2 years later).
2010 - MacBook Pro (Summer 2010)
Apple finally made a laptop with as much gusto as my behemoth desktop. Crunching as much digital audio, instruments and effects as I could throw at it and not explode. I had my new desktop and laptop rolled into one. About a year later, Apple released a laptop line that was twice as fast (which hadn't happened in the previous 4+ years), but we won't talk about that.
The new laptop played host to the resurgence on my music, graphic/web design, writing and let me feel like I had a real computer to take with me to Korea.
It should more than adequately serve me for my schooling with the addition of ProTools 9.
I was (am) looking forward to picking up an iPhone 5 when I got back to the states. Which would make pretty much everything (expensive) I own made by Apple, Mackie or Sony. I'm totally ok with that ; )
So, as one can see, I'm looking at a good 25 years or so with an Apple product of one sort or another allowing me to express me need for art with the precision of a computer. I might have gotten into PCs at some point had there been no Apples in the house every summer (Go Mom! / teachers), but I'm not sure I would have started writing music or doing as much digital art as soon as I did. Very rarely has any Mac ever truly hindered my creative process, they have for the most part been nearly transparent. Except for those times when I swear they would psychically (No BS, I could feel it) tell me they were about to crash (back in my OS 7-9 days), allowing me to save my work. I think some of us spent as much time writing music as we did laughing hysterically at Logic's audio dump after a crash, usually with the aid of alcohol.
So, Steve, thank you for making a computer / OS that clicked with my brain and creative process. I'll miss your antics, psychotic episodes, totalitarian rants, ingenuity, vision and… I forgive you for trying to do in 1984 and 1993 what you succeeded with in 1998 and beyond (except for the Key Lime iBook and Flower Power iMac).
I still question why iChat is tied to AIM and I'm guessing it has to do with a lot of alcohol, bad bets and eWorld.
~Cheers~
P.S. Now that I've written this list. I'm going to have to dig out one of my OS 9 or earlier compatible Macs and recover some of my old music (.MMF - not SMAF), art (Hypercard) and photos (.KDC).

September is here...
I've been behind on the next interlude "Force of Reason." I'm still working on it and so far I think it's the best yet. It'll probably be the last of the classical and or organic sounding interludes as the future album will be progressing into the industrial revolution and the world wars after this.
I decided to draw a teddy bear... with a gun... and I put it on a t-shirt. Have fun with that ; )
You can buy 'Gunbear' shirts here -> [U-D-R] Store
I'm about 5-6 weeks from leaving Korea. I'm still waiting on paperwork and procrastinating far too much. Time to start looking for a job to help out with income before I head off to school in January. I need to get that taken care of as well.
I'll see everyone in Seattle soon!

P.S. The 1996 version of 'The Island of Doctor Moreau' was actually pretty good. It's got some Einstürzende Neubauten in the soundtrack too.
