Throwback
Found this near Hackensack, NJ on my way to an awesome vintage furniture shop. I'm updating some apartment elements in Brooklyn. Hackensack is caught in a serious time-capsule. This old time Sears logo was just the start of it...really odd, like off the set of "Back To The Future."
....Now music.

Brooklyn Heights
I grabbed a coffee and croissant this morning and walked down to the Brooklyn Heights promenade. I do this pretty often. The view of the City is pretty spectacular and it always reminds me about the control and freedom of my days. Seeing the skyline is both amazing, gorgeous, intimidating, and comforting. But, it also is relieving to me that I am able to view this skyline while also not being trapped within it doing something that doesn't make me happy. Music does not always give me happy days nor is writer's block a comfortable thing to experience, but at the end of the day I know that it's all on me and it's all up to me. Having choices is what makes that walk to the promenade important.
And, some music usually comes of it.

Good Coffee
Exhibit A:
I have been perfecting great coffee for some time now, both espresso and regular coffee. My morning is never complete without a French Press. I can even go so far as to say that the French Press has been the apparatus that sparks musical inspiration.
P.S. I'm rebuilding my studio in my new pad located in Brooklyn Heights. I finally found the coffee press buried in a box of microphones.
