Record At Home Administrator Releases CD

I'm proud to announce the release of my first solo project as recording artist Speck 5. Speck 5's first release, 21st Century Freak, went global through iTunes and other digital distributors on Christmas day of 2009. This debut is monumental to me for so many reasons, but among them is that it triggered my recent immersion in the world percussions. Listen to the somewhat disturbing "I See Monsters" and the didgeridoo and rain stick headline a long list of percussions, or listen to the etherial "On Me On You" to hear the lovely Dumbek drum and a host other percussions from Ghana and Nigeria.
In short, this first CD was an experiment in expression and production and has given tremendous direction and focus to what I intend to do with my future work.
I need to give special thanks to the contributing lyricist, Dr. Trina Rose, who lent us two great stories... one of lust tempered love and the other one that cracks open that dark place we visit after a heart break. I can't imagine what place inside she goes to find these incredible interpretations, but I'm thankful to participate in them. Visit speck5.com to learn more...
