  • Top Ten Music Finds For 2017

    This is the second make up post for  two year stretch of no music listings. Again, not a lot of commentary but a lot of cool, interesting music (in my book). Butcher Babies – Monsters Ball I now have a playlist in Spotify called “Angry Bitches”, and these two are the reason why. Honestly, it’s…

  • Top Ten Music Finds For 2016

    OK, I’ll be honest here… I let this list slide for the last two years as I’ve gotten out of the hobby for the most part. I still listen to music, I just don’t paint or built to it anymore. Though that hasn’t stopped me from making a list each year. That said, I won’t…

  • Round Five: Top 10 Music Finds for 2015

    Time for my annual sifting of the new stuff I’m listening to – yay!!! Once again, I’m a bit surprised I found at least 10 songs/performers throughout the year that I think are share-worthy. This years list is one of extremes of the pendulum swing. From ambient, floaty, female vocals to anger-fueled heavy metal tirades,…

  • Round Four: Top 10 Music Finds for 2014

  • Round Three: Top Ten Music Finds for 2013

    2013 was not quite what I expected it to be when I reviewed my audio lists compared to my memories. I spent (what I thought) much of it in study for classes and class prep for classes I was teaching. I can’t concentrate on things like this (memory stuff) with a lot of funky beats…

  • Another Top Ten Music Finds – 2012

    OK, another year, another reflection as to what I picked up sonically the last twelve months. Looking over the list there wasn’t anything from the old days like the Steelheart find last year. There was a surprise in the form of Van Halen as you’ll see (hear) below. Overall, this list is kinda close to…

  • Top Ten New Music Finds For 2011

    Hey folks! The one thing I can do the same time I work on my models and paint is listen to music. I’m not one of those who can have movies or a tv series going on in the background – it will absolutely freeze me in my tracks like a deer in the headlights.…
