Omahans may laugh at the Massachusetts masked lesbian bar but I remember the furor that ended with a white lady posting 1,000 words on Facebook because she was tormented from dressing up like a Japanese themed zombie and the hurt it must have caused Asians “including indians”

A thing I’ve worked on is about to be released and republicans are gonna call it AI and try to make it look stupid but know this: I hired the best musicians in the Midwest and it fucking rules and you should support people who support local artists.

People ask me sometimes if I know anyone who makes music videos and I send them this video I made in Benson of Zach performing Kiss From A Rose and they stop asking www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhlA...

Everyone says I’m too hard to get a hold of because I don’t read text messages. I started a website where you can read how bad I am at repairing electronics, see a few credits, and enjoy contacting me. mixedinasunroom.com

Doesn’t care that I worked on incredible records by legendary indie bands. Freaks out over me running sound design for frozen and loves coming to the tech runs to be the lighting stand in.

@theolympics.bsky.social reached out to me wanting to mess around with the stems for this song a while back. I wanted to share what he did! Give him some love. youtu.be/gmJtwaUK5nA

Heard a song on Bandcamp that I absolutely loved and reached out to the artist to find out if I could make my own version and they said yes.

Eleven years ago today I slipped over to Modern Love when it was next to the club and replaced a few of their menus with these.

Made a 21.5 hour solo drive from Scottsdale, Arizona to Omaha yesterday and the only things I listened to were silence, When Women Were Dragons by @kellybarnhill.bsky.social , and @joshtweeterson.bsky.social’s Unsportsmanlike Conduct. A true vacation for me.

At this point, with everything going on in the world, is humanity ready to admit that this is the best looking and most perfectly designed station wagon ever made?

I’ll never not get a kick out of stuff like this. Yo go try out this reverb and think of me in my Sony’s standing over you, smiling and approving. “Nice reverb,” I breathe into your ear. “Sounds great.”

I mixed the saddest song I’ve ever heard in my life. It’s about a friend whose death I pushed to the back of my mind until I was forced to confront it while mixing it. Go to the streaming service of your choice and listen to Here We Go Again by Jon Dell.

Hey if you are at all interested in reverbs, you might know I have a pretty decent collection. One of them was recently used to model a plugin by Metric Halo and Make Believe Studios and it sounds fucking stellar. Can’t wait for you to try it.

Back to mixing this week but I want to say, theme week (last 1/2 of Jan.) is an insanely fun time and I am grateful that I still get to write music that people love, hate, repeat listen, and talk shit about it. Thanks for picking me to make your commercials and jingles and opens.

First talent show for Ro today. First time playing for anyone except his mom and I. His sticker game is on point for an eight year old. Has a Willa Cather library sticker, Ground Floor, Eric Nyffeler Designed area, and the Sierra Ferrell backstage pass. Cooler than me.

There's a lot happening but today Happer and Schaefer debuted a new open I did. If you wanna hear it, it features ex American idol contestant / current 106.9 DJ alyssa and Stibbs on vocals and has the most emotional ending to any sports talk show theme ever. Enjoy. untitled.stream/library/trac...

I remember being told that saying “Abolish ICE” during the last president’s term was somehow detrimental to the reelection strategy. Seems like an important thing to maybe, like, acknowledge moving forward.

I’ve been a part of multiple large scale protests; not the corporate “wear silly hats and chant slogans” kind but the riotous breed. And you always knew the police could end up shooting you. Well, now you know they will. And now you know people will applaud your death.

Midtown Anne wasn’t picked in the primary and now we don’t have guaranteed abortion access and PBS funding because she convinced enough of her WASP NIMBY Fairacres friends that Tony was a radical and supported the candidate that every other member of congress loves tricking.

OmahaNightLife posting thousands of archived photos from 2005-2008, especially the girls gone wild limo album, is beautiful because there will be so many panicked dms being sent between people who haven’t spoken in 20 years.

As a bit of a joke, I asked the legendary John Bishop, voice of the Creighton Bluejays, to call a 4th grade girls bball game for charity. He graciously agreed. This Sunday at 3:00pm John, Michael Stibbs on color, and Ravi Lulla on sideline reporting will be calling a game. More details soon.

Legit one of the coolest sounding things you’ll hear in 2026. The band, made up of your future best friends and they’re all 25 and under asked me “will the people you’re sharing this with know it’s a cover” and I’m like…god damnit I’m old.

Happy 2025. I know there's no recording engineer category but I am happy to say that I just voted for all eleven artists with whom I've worked for OEAA awards and I think that tells you who the most affordable recording engineer is.
