My friend Dave just launched Fischoff Music, a site showcasing all the scoring work he’s done for film, web and television. He’s worked on an impressive range of projects – documentaries, commercials, short films. He’s got a showreel up, but also lists each project individually on the Portfolio section. Kudos to the two Justins, for…
My friend Dave, aka Spoolwork (MySpace | Facebook), just completed a new mix. Entitled “High Pressure Days,” it’s full of hip hop, new wave, disco, electro and soul. Not only that, it’s available for streaming online, and also as a free download to boot! Go give it a spin… 1. Roof (DJ Ayres Remix) –…
As some of you already know, my friend Dave is a musician. But recently, he’s also been stretching his remixing fingers and taken on the moniker Spoolwork. His first collaboration is with Jens Lekman, and the mp3 is available for download on the Spoolwork site. As if that wasn’t cool enough, Dave has also gotten…
Dave has started a new remix and production project called Spoolwork, and has just posted his first track this morning. From Dave: to kick things off I‚’ve put together a remix of Jens Lekman’s “I’m Leaving You Because I Don’t Love You.” The original version of the song appears on his new album Night Falls…
Tonight Liz and Lisa had a dinner/holiday party. There were a few friends for a meal beforehand, and a lot of folks over for drinks and desserts afterwards.
Alex and Linda are in town this evening, stopping in Chicago en route to a wedding in Bloomington. Justin and Dave are also travelling to Bloomington, and tonight’s stopover allowed many of us to meet Johanna for the very first time. After work, I made my way over to the Chicago Diner, a vegetarian diner…
I wanted to be a good host today, but my body was dragging after last night. After a quick (and all too short) nap, I made plans to grab some sushi with Gretchen and Abby over at Bob San. After a long wait (it was pretty packed, as it was Saturday night and I hadn’t…
After an all-too-brief nap, Abby wakes me up and we head out for a bite to eat. On the way home, we stop off tobuy a crapton of booze for the party, and begin the process of loading up for the hotel. On the way out, I spotted the local ice cream truck, something that’s…
I got an invite a while ago from Johnathan and Hillary, who are moving to Philadelphia soon (Johnathan will be starting a new job, working for Fresh Air). Though I don’t know them all that well, we have many mutual friends in common and our paths have crossed a good deal. I was trying to…
Met up with Gretchen and `Dave at the Division stop, each of us with a six-pack in tow. So it begins. We get off downtown, and walk abit to the Hotel Monaco – where the room is. As a brief flashback I think this was the hotel where my friend Melissa (aka Mellzah) stayed, back…
Prior to the birthday festivities, a few of us met up at Cafe Bolero for dinner. I walked in shortly after two other women, and shortly thereafter realized we were all attending the birthday dinner. I sat down with Nicole and Megan, two DJs at WLUW that also work with Chelsea. We were soon after…
Got invited out tonight by Justin andDave, who’re doing this dual-DJ thing ata place called Rhythm. I also got invitedout by Kristen and Brook, who were also planning on attending. My initial reaction (earlier in the week) was to decline, and stay in. I’ve been in hermit modefor a while now, and the idea of…
The group, about to head out. Chelsea is out of the frame to the left. Then it’s Gretchen, Julie, Carl, Kristen, Hillary, Justin, Will and Rob. I think Dave is off to the right of the frame. As we were driving along, we got stopped at a bridge for a passing ship. Will jumped out,…
Last week, Justin and I hung out at Pontiac for a few after-work drinks and decided we wanted to throw a party this weekend. Fast-forward through a day of errands and shopping, and this is where we’re at – Justin’s place, supplies coming out of our ears, and a whole lot of prep work to…
