Man, do I feel old. It has been 20 years since “Nevermind” by Nirvana came out. However, “smells like teen spirit” is a lot older. I ran into a carousel dating back from 1910, and guess what tune it was playing? Needless to say, this was a pretty scary ride.

Music: “Rainy Waltz” – Schnauzer Radio Orchestra

At this very moment there isn’t a single cable connected. I am moving into a bigger studio. (although some might say: ” what do you mean “closed”, this looks perfectly fine!).

In the meantime the “East Screen-West Screen” podcast just upped their production value adding a commissioned piece I did for them.

-again, some might say ” lowered their production value”

Right now I am moving West, but you can hear Schnauzer going east right here:

What is Christmas without a SuperNES, a Stylophone, a Wurlitzer and an all girls 60s choir? Nothing, I tell you!
For those of you who missed this last year, I had 2 spare days so I produced: Winter Wonderland Schnauzer Style, wishing you all a Happy Christmas!

(do with this track as you please. Blog about it, remix it, give it away to your worst enemies, or just do a little nerdy dance to it.)

If anyone can explain to me what a Zabada is… I have no idea why this turned out like this, but for some reason I needed a robot wizzard spelling out zabada throughout the song.

Anyways, enjoy this next Schnauzer Radio Orchestra preview.

What does one do when cartoonist Len Peralta (we all know from his awesome Monster By Mail project) cries out for help, and practically falls on his knees for a piece of original audio?
That’s right, you let him beg some more, make him bark a little, then get to work.

Geek a Week is a project where Len interviews one geek a week and draws an additional playing card about that person. You can read all about it and listen to the podcast right here.

Long story short: I did the opening- and closing music and you can listen to a short version here.

It’s about time I’d show my face, straighten my back and give some of you music geeks a sneak peak into the Schnauzer CD production.
First Sneak peak : I wish a were a chicken, an hommage to a very old German song from the 1936 movie “Glückskinder”.

Ich wollt’, ich wär’ ein Huhn, -I wish I were a chicken
Ich hätt’ nicht viel zu tun, -I wouldn’t have much to do
Ich legte vormittags ein Ei, – In the morning I’d lay an egg
Und abends wär’ ich frei. - And in the evening I’d be free.

coming to a Schnauzer-CD near you soon

R.I.P ExtraLifeRadio, Hello Current Geek Weekly!

ELR was all about nerdy stuff  like videogames, books, crappy movies, and more. Most of those segments have got their own show nowadays like Filmsack for crappy movies, The Instance for Warcraft, Appslappy for iPhone apps, and now there is Current Geek Weekly, covering the rest.

O.K. I didn’t post this to sum up all the podcast I listen to,  I posted this because I did the tune. Click below to listen to the show.

Back in 2007 as a kind of a joke, a friend of mine asked if I could make a song about his puppy. A rickety piano, a theremin and some shuffling about-sounds made a pretty funny tune back then.
A few months ago he called in again telling his dog was suffering from cancer. Not willing to go through months of chemo trying to make her life a tiny but longer, (her suffering would also be prolonged),  he decided to threat her with painkillers and when the moment was there to put her to sleep. How cruel that may sound, I think that was the best thing he could do for his dog. Yesterday he called in telling that it was all over.
We couldn’t know that in 3 years time this song would fit perfectly with an occasion like this. This may sound corny, but it’s true: laughter and tears are very close together.
Bonita, you were a great dog, and I still smile when I think about the stupid things you did.
