DEBUT Release from Hozpitality Ambient Spin-Off: CHOB!
CHOB = Chad and Bob.
I had this idea, which came from the first track on this album, to create more music that sounds like the following:
- Ambient
- Space
- Chill
- New Age
- Lullaby Channel
- Massage music
- Sound Collage
- “Hold that chord and wait for a record contract”
- and Atmosphere
Bob and I have many years of exposure to this type of music and thoroughly enjoy it as a unique and special artform. We wanted to make some music that didn’t start from or required a rhythm section. To be honest, there are a few drum tracks on this album, but they were intentionally moved to the back of the mix to make room for the sonic palette on display for these tracks. There is no mistaking the quality of the sounds in the musical toys/instruments we use, and we wanted to have fun putting these on display a little more.
So there are no vocals/lyrics, and there’s not a lot of “hot driving dance beats”. This is more of an exploration of the sonic “colour” in our heads and our devices. The first track, “Egyptian Forward”, was the inspiration to start this journey. To make a bookend, a portion of “Egyptian Forward” was segmented and shortened. The left channel of this track was reversed while the right side moves in a forward direction, hence the title “Egyptian Crossing”. (I personally loved the original track so much I thought it sounded good backwards too!)
Never enough credit goes to Bitchin Bob for editing genius, insight/perspective, and laughs o’plenty. I swear we both learn more about the tools of this trade every time we do this stuff. Learning has never been so much fun!
Track list:
- Egyptian Forward (3:23)
- From The Treetop (7:49)
- Pur Heaven (4:37)
- Dinosaur Suite (6:29)
- Egyptian Crossing (1:28)
Tools used:
- Korg Kaossilator Pro
- Korg Kaossilator
- Korg Mini-KP
- Adobe Audition (“What? Are we crashing now?”)

** You can’t charge money for this much fun, and it truly is fun making this stuff. As always, the best compensation for this effort would be any sort of comment left here on this blog. CHOB thanks YOU (because your comments are Pur Heaven).

Farewell Summer of 2012
With summer ending, the Phillies collapsing, and the end of the world coming with the Mayan calendar crap (which is all a load of poop), I figured I should post a connecto pic of a Rehoboth Beach sunset I’ve had lying around my cell phone memory for 4 or 5 months.
Maybe you haven’t noticed, but I am doing some image house cleaning on my cell phone memory chip. Enjoy!
As always, click the image for the biggy!
The “Highest” I’ve Ever been in Philadelphia!!
These pictures are from the 6th tallest building in Philadelphia, the Blue Cross building (DiBona Building) on the 44th floor facing west.
As always click the image for the full effect! The connecto pic below is composed of 5 crappy cell pictures.
Here’s a few non-connecto pics facing north and east (just for giggles). As always, click the image for the full size!
