One of the things I enjoy most about the design work I’ve been doing in the music industry over the past couple years is seeing people I’ve been fortunate enough to meet, work with, and even befriend, as they release their music to the delight of listeners. The fanfare and positive regard you can see [...]
It’s a mere couple weeks before I make the move to New York City, so please excuse the calmness around here in light of all the last-minute projects and obligations I have been getting handled before this transition finally commences. There has been a torrent of great two-step in the last few months, here’s what [...]
Stuck in the mid-summer’s heatwave? Take a moment to think for a second about how much you missed this heat back in January, remember those days when you couldn’t fathom going to the corner store without full clothing, a jacket and scarf…those always help get me through those nights where you can’t fall asleep because [...]
I’m very excited to announce the release of three new tee shirt designs as part of the rollout of the new Moodgadget Store, powered by Merchline. The first two designs– for Shigeto and The Young Friends are by me, while the third design was created by Weed‘s frontman Will Anderson (aka Gradfad) under some art [...]

Today, we’ll take another look (a double take, in some cases) at what’s hot, what’s heating up, and in the process save you some time sifting through the crap. Sepalcure [...]

Today’s post will be a mix of some of the best new dub techno, dubstep, and ambient sound I could find. We’ll warm things up, turn down the light, and then drone off into the ocean. Today’s art is some of the incredible futuristic concept art (by Sparth Construct) I’ve been checking out at the [...]
My newest deep mix is here for your listening enjoyment. Continuing in the same spirit as my Green Label, Crescendo, and 5ifth Element mixes, Black Label explores a selection of choice cuts, some as fresh as only a month or two since release, others just ripening in recent memory. I’ve followed deep music with more [...]
