New Earplugs from Etymotic Research

My new HiFi earplugs from Etymotic Research came in the mail today. I got them at the recommendation of an audio engineer friend in Portland. I have grown tired of stuffing toilet paper or paper towels in my ears if I forget my plugs… and I miss the high end when I put in my favorite foam plugs. Here are some of the features from the company’s website, see all the claims, benefits and features at etymotic.com:

FMPDX Video Set Streaming Today

This September, I was asked to play for a Sunday BBQ that follows the monthly house music event, FLIGHT. The BBQs are webcast LIVE via MixLR and the video archived for later release.

This morning marks the release of that video archive for my set. I played alongside Ben Tactic and Shane Bowser. Each of us had big gigs coming the following week. Thanks to Andrew Boie, James Collier, and Chris Demetras (Art of Hot) for having me.

Sundays have never felt this good… regardless of hangover. I hope you find some gems in my mix.
