(my new logo for the side business!)

Hello from Nova Design & Print, the All-in-One Service for Bands, Orgs, Businesses. (how’s that sound, guys?)

Not only am I a musician, producer, father, poet, and geek media junkie, but also I am a graphic designer and offset/digital printer. I started a side-business to help keep my family out of debt during this recession we're in.

I just set up a Facebook Page. Go and ‘Like’ it for access to weekly/monthly specials, helpful tips for preparing artwork and planning projects, and personal observations/trivia/fun facts related to print and design.

The same catholic 'leaders' calling out the GOP for perpetuating racial stereotypes are the same 'leaders' who continue to perpetuate hate against women's rights and the LGBT community. In other words, trolls taking the piss.

Catholic leaders tell Gingrich, Santorum ‘to stop perpetuating ugly racial stereotypes’

I thought it might be interesting to keep a chart of the new music I’ve been indulging in lately.

But first, a phone pic of my new guitar :)

First up, a ‘new’ song by The Doors, found on some recordings made for LA Woman.



I’m enjoying Bitcrush quite a bit, moody, textured, emotive and lush music.



This tune by Lemon Jelly inspires me to reminisce about old ‘70s pick-up lines I never used (I swear). “If I could rearrange the alphabet, baby, I’d put U and I together.”



The Orb’s Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld turns 20. The Orb – Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld on Spotify.

Drowner, from Houston, is Fabulous Shoegazey Dream Pop. I know I’m hooked.



I recently remixed The Foreign Resort’s new song “Orange Glow.” Here is the entire EP. If you like good shoegazey new wave, this band from Denmark hits all the right spots.



Last, but not least, here’s a song I wrote a few years ago for “In Silico.” I wrote it while sitting at the Coffee House on Cherry Street. It was a nice vacation day, I recall.



That’s all for this round. See you next time.

My friend Wilhelm played this album for me during a recent visit. It’s quite enjoyable, cheesy, and makes a great addition to the music library.

‎"Are you a fan of innovative electronic music? Do your imagination a favor and have a listen to the latest offering from Novachild, aka Bruce Rich. Billed as 'the soundtrack of an imaginary place,' I'm here to tell ya- it just so happens that I've BEEN there and it totally sounded like this."

My long time friend Jennifer Smith set up a facebook page exclusively for her art, photography, and other creative projects. I thought it would be nice to share to all who happen to wander into my blog.

I also picked out a few personal favorites :)
