This newsletter compiles links to all the posts created and published on the Concrete Peninsula website within the last month, October 13-October 26, 2025. Over the past 2 weeks, I've published a couple brief introspections on huge influences on my life, one band and one film as well
This week I released an album of acoustic and voice songs that I'm using to explore repetition. Historically, I'm not a patient musician, and my musical output over the years could easily be characterized as frenetic and squiggly intensity. Please check it out and let me
In France there is a tradition of "gleaning" that allows people to scour fields after harvests and take any left behind crops for their families. Agnès Varda's 2000 masterpiece Les glaneurs et la glaneues (The Gleaners and I) explores abundance and sharing excess through the relationship
Ever since I was fortunate enough to find the LP Feral Hymns by Lungfish in around 2005 at Vinyl Fever in Tampa simply by following the beacon of the Dischord records logo on the back, the mystery of the band's repetitive riffs and obtuse and mystical lyrics have
This newsletter compiles links to all the posts created and published on the Concrete Peninsula website within the last month, September 15-October 12, 2025. This newsletter finds us one month into the future instead of one week. I wish I could say I planned this schedule, but it's
The repetitions continue, this time capturing 3 songs. Geosynchronous Drain Plastic staring eyes And amputated tearducts The excavator pulling Punched out computer tape Coded suppressed emotions A faulty psuedo cosmos A drain A drain A drain A drain A geosynchronous drain Malignant design If i could just insert A reality
Street Eaters has been one of my favorite bands since sometime in 2011 when my band Blast & the Detergents randomly and fortunately played a show with them in a basement of the legendary house Brown Town in Athens, Ohio when we were both on tour. This was an especially
A music writing project based upon repetition, each song only contains 1 riff and no changes. Teaching myself patience and demolishing my comfort zone of frenetic attack music. Also, my favorite music writing is collaborative, so pushing against that grain and solo writing on these. I have hopes to turn
This newsletter compiles links to all the posts created and published on the Concrete Peninsula website within the last week, September 8-14, 2025. A little late today as I was traveling across the Concrete Peninsula gaining some time and some inspiration. I was able to compile a great document of
September 6, 2025 welcome home from DIY tour for the incredible Tampa band Gnats. Excellent documentation of a sampling of each set by the hero https://www.youtube.com/@DaviedinTheCrowd allows those of us who were there to relive, and for anyone else to catch the vibe of this Florida
This newsletter compiles links to all the posts created and published on the Concrete Peninsula website within the last week, September 1-7, 2025. Output was more visual than wordy this week, with one post being a couple short photo series from my traveling across the Concrete Peninsula in the recent

In case you missed part 1, start here: Truck (part 1) The Highway Despite his slightly longer ignition time, Jud’s connection to the truck felt as seamless as ever. He glowered at the other vehicles on the road, old fashioned drivers too weak to make the necessary sacrifices to
music
Johnny Mnemonic has been one of my favorite movies since I saw it in the theaters too young in 1995. Probably as a result of this movie (or possibly a combination with other pop culture leavings), I dreamed of the internet as a physical space to float around in, turning
original fiction
a body horror original fiction piece in 4 parts. editing credit: twobyetoo Ignition Judson inhaled a deep breath and hoisted himself into the cockpit of his truck. The plush leather seat immediately fused to his smooth, hairless, naked body. Thousands of cold microfilament fibers simultaneously suctioned the skin along his
music
I don’t remember why I heard about this album in 2003, but I remember the epiphany presented to me in the form of abstract lyrics, warm and biting bass tone, intermittent horn, squiggly and stabby guitar and ripping dance drums. My brain and consciousness warped, I heard Beefheart, I
Film
Recently rewatching the 1980 crime masterpiece The Long Good Friday, I was struck not only by the catharsis of witnessing capitalist failure, but also the amount of looking through glass the director John Mackenzie employed throughout the film. A barrier between the viewer (sometimes us, sometimes characters in the film)
manifesto notes
What am I doing here? I’ve got a lot of things that interest me that I want to lay out in essay form, niche interests to broad strokes and plenty of intersections to discover and invent. I’m first and foremost a musician, and I love to share my
