The Syncopated Stylings of James Anderson
I posted about Mr. James Anderson a couple of years back and have been keeping an eye on his brilliance ever since. He’s got such an eloquent relationship between his beatboxing and his harmonica. Most beatbox harmonic players lack melodics and

A Dragon Hunter’s Tale
This weekend I ventured, yet again, deep into the bowels of the TTC where I played the tale of Brave Sir Guy (pronounced the French way, like “gee”). I really enjoy playing songs with such pronounced phrasings. It gives the

With Apologies to John Williams
Lately, I’ve been playing around with “Death of a Jedi” from John Williams’ epic score to Star War Episode 6. It’s not much yet, but I wanted to share because… well, just because. BE WARNED: there is a very loud

Some Canadian Beatbox Harmonica
It’s been too long! Sometimes I take a break from posting, but I inevitably find some artist who is good enough to compel me to post again. Today, that someone’s name is James Anderson, from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. This guy

Mali Blues
Today I discovered a fascinating musician named Boubacar Traoré, largely hailed as the founder of the modern Mali Blues style. Born in 1942 in Kayes, Mali, Boubacar was a superstar in his own country in the early 1960’s until political

Son of Dave

Something Had to Break the Silence
Hello, dear reader, it’s been a while. I found one of my old videos and thought it was worth sharing with you. It’s a harmonic minor jam I shot while alone on the subway one morning. Nothing special, just fun,
