Got back in the creative zone recently. Imagine I was working on a song with the Foo Fighters-- (I said "imagine".) I ask if we can have a tabla player in for the session, and they're cool with it. We have a fun, rockin' session, now we're mixing. Our buddy Trent Reznor stops by on a lunch break, listens to the track and says, "You know what would be cool is if you did … [Read more...] about New song “Divorced”
New Song: “Help Me, I’m Obsessed”

Got a sample of one below, actually a tune from the distant past that's being updated. You ever create something and think, "Yeah, that's cool." then hide it away never to be seen … [Read more...] about New Song Update & Playing in Santa Monica/Venice
