I got a chance to meet two of my absolute favorite deep house producers last month, both of whom happen to be from Melbourne. First, I caught Tornado Wallace at the King & Grove Hotel’s pool, where I was gushing over my favorite releases of his (both the ones on Delusions of Grandeur) and marveling […]
Dilla remains at the core of my musical heart and soul. I’ve gone on about how much I respect and revere the work of James “Dilla” Yancey, so I don’t need to repeat anything other than my ongoing amazement at the cross-genre inspiration that Dilla’s work has achieved, with this incredible Jazzy take by Robert […]
The Hedonist’s Cloudcasts on Mixcloud Jazz is one of those therapeutic genres with something to offer in just about any situation, with high mountains and deep valleys of recordings to explore, true musicianship from long before my time. I sometimes wish I could go back to the days of strolling through yellow and orange parks […]
Well, it’s been a long time since I’ve posted last, but if you’ve been coming here before this point, or if you know me, you know my music and design exploration has not ceased. However, as we seem to evolve beyond having the time, interest, or energy to maintain anything larger than a tumblr/twitter-size microblog, […]
Summertime has arrived. I am offloading and unlocking the past two years of focused study and learning, taking everything in with a fresh outlook. Looking for a place to practice this new chapter in my design work and really establish the basis of my contribution to the professional field. It’s a tremendous feeling. It’s been […]
I am finally writing to you from the other side. Last week, I graduated from Parsons The New School for Design with a Master’s in Design & Technology. As I begin to decompress the last two years of hard work and neglecting other areas of my life (including this blog), I find myself standing at […]
Seriously guys, so sorry for the downtime around here. While activity on Blog.H34 has been waning slowly over the past 2 years as I’ve focused the vast majority of my time and energy on my graduate work, that chapter of my life has reached it’s fever pitch, and a few months from now, I’ll have […]

The fourth and final semester of my graduate work in Design & Technology at Parsons here in NYC has commenced, and the greatest challenge of my fledgling career is now upon me. In advance, there isn’t much hope for weekly activity around here, but I’ll be back to normal by May. I have continued to […]
Get ready for some essential classics. This past year I’ve been trying to uncover the roots of all my favorite modern genres– especially focused on the realms of disco, funk, soul, and R&B. Tragically, the sort of craftsmanship that went into music in the days before the advent of the personal computer and the drum […]
