So I came back from Olive Garden this past Saturday around 9:30 PM with my wife, brother and sister-in-law. We immediately separated—My brother and I went into my office so he could prepare his laptop for a business trip while we’re chatting and listening to some music. The girls sat in the living room and [...]
Yes, I’m so self-centered that I decided to name this music station update after one of the greatest events (or hoaxes?) in the history of the universe. And it’s a geeky update, not a cool one. It’s been almost two years since I announced that I would probably maybe perhaps rip the station’s tracks from [...]
After a nice long winter vacation, we arrived at Cleveland Hopkin’s airport greeted by a slap of ice-cold weather. What was worse was the feeling you get when you sit in the car and your frozen jeans touch the ugly parts of your body. We arrived at the apartment, opened the front door letting all the heat out, and [...]
… for a quick pit stop then heading back. My wife and I recently finished watching the entire series of Battlestar Galactica. While I’m not an avid television fan (there is just no time with 24-hour days), this series is one of the best I have ever seen on TV. It is a reimagining of the [...]
I have recently had the pleasure of meeting and chatting with British composer Andrew Pearce on Facebook. He stumbled upon Permanent Waves and made me realize it was missing some of his great compositions. His latest work, Cinema Symphony, contains beautifully powerful and powerfully beautiful pieces. Conducted by José Serebrier, I was greatly pleased with [...]
… book… page. If you’re on Facebook, then you have the opportunity to join the newly-created Permanent Waves group, based on non other than the Live365 Internet Radio station. I remember Facebook when it was in its infancy. It was a cool and quiet place. Everything was free there. There were no crowds. People met [...]
Several days ago, Permanent Waves was designated “Editor’s Pick” by the Live365 team. After about 9 years of playing orchestral film music on the air, it was determined that Permanent Waves is “one of the top performing Live365 stations in terms of listener loyalty!” I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and [...]
I’m already caught up with Lost and I’m awaiting the final season in great anticipation. However, my wife, Linda, is still catching up on the story on DVD, so every once in a while I sit with her and watch, and with a small smile I remember the good old episodes and maybe notice a [...]
You know, around 6 months ago I mentioned that I would be working on archiving the Permanent Waves collection into some type of lossless format. And you’re probably expecting some sort of update on this extremely active, ongoing process… I don’t think the word “nothing” can thoroughly describe this. I feel like a school kid [...]
As Live365 paves the way for higher quality music streaming, I thought I should update the way I do things. In the past, I used to work with lower bit rate mp3 and archive them in (please don’t shoot me)… mp3! Only about a year ago, I took my head out of my ass and [...]
