L.A., Well of Souls, and Tech-House

Amy and I traveled to L.A. 2 weekends ago to visit our dearest friends and a new addition to my 'family' down in California: Keian!

It was incredibly refreshing to get some decent weather and see Ian & Roxanna & baby Keian.  We stayed at a nice hotel in Redondo Beach and spent a few days hanging out with them. It was definitely relaxing and I can't wait to go back!

Nick & Ashely also came over from Riverside to hang out with us that Sunday.  Ian joined the four of us for a breakfast at Roscoe's Chicken & Waffles in Hollywood.  Needless to say that Hollywood is a colorful place: that particular day the Academy Awards were taking place so it was beginning to be a sea of characters and star chasers early in the day!

I can't offer up the level of detail in type that I would otherwise talk about, but some highlights from the trip: Breakfast at Uncle Bill's Pancake House, walking around Hermosa Beach, grilling with Ian,  shopping for a baby-sling for Ian with the gang, seeing Nick & Ash and hitting up Santa Monica Promenade,  Ian's kick ass motorcycle, meeting Jacqui and David, Universal Studios Mall, Hardrock Cafe... sheesh.. tip of the iceberg really. We plan on going back down later this year and couldn't be more excited!

Already missing everyone down there (and the weather.. beach.. sigh..),  I'm finding the groove with work.  Thankfully, though, I have a renewed sense of spirit and calm that is driving my music production to ever increasing heights!

Well of Souls is coming.  New tech-house inspired tracks are in the works for a late 2009 release.  DJ sets are planned.  Watch sliptide.com and keep your eyes open on all fronts for announcements! (hint: 2 singles from Well of Souls will be seeing the light of day soon!).

Oh.. I will try not to neglect the blog so much. ^_^
