This song is called AUGUST NEEDS! I wrote it back in 2004 while living by myself in Osaka.
The bass part was originally written as an example for a bass lesson I was teaching. It then turned into a song!
Get the song here from iTunes!

I wrote this with lots of electric bass loops and a mic. This is from my album made in japan 2005.
The video is Tokyo at night.

This song seems to be my most popular.
I wrote this in Sonar in 2006 using a drum sample loop, guitar, shamisen, bass and my voice.

I have always been a big fan of Weezer. I got a lot of ridicule for liking this band, but whatever. Good songs!
So, after a discussion with David Misung Stevenson, I decided to try and cover one of their songs.
Not too bad. I decided I would force myself to do it in ABLETON LIVE so I could learn not only how to record, but also how to build a song in the layout section.
There are still a number of flubs here and there. I have no idea where the drums get their random cymbals from, but I will figure this software OUT!
It blows my mind how intuitive Ableton Live is…just the learning curve is as flat as Mount Fuji! IRONY! betch!
Without further ado
Justin DiCenzo – Weezer’s Only in Dreams
Here’s my disastrous attempt at covering Weezer’s ONLY IN DREAMS…a very short ONLY IN DREAMS

It’s my time – by me, played on trombone, synths, guitar and sung.
This is from my 2009 release: Good morning, goodbye
This video was shot on my iPhone 3g in 2010 around Shinjuku, at the school I’ve been teaching at for the last 2 years.

This song is called GAMEPLAN!
A song I wrote with Misung aka Dave Stevenson.
I emailed him the instrumental rough heard below and he sang over it.
Here is the demo
Then I re-recorded everything and sang it in a more exciting key. Here is a rough mix by me:
Misung and I have been friends since I was about 14. The first time we sat down together and wrote something was a very strange experience to me at that age. He got out a tape recorder and a guitar and said, come on lets write a song. No paper, no pen, just make!
He is one of the most prolific people I know. Thanks Dave for writing this with me! More to come!

I know I have posted this in the past, but I’m really excited about this video. It was made by my friend Carl Stella. He’s a film maker living in Japan. I’m making music for his upcoming short, so he agreed to make a music video for me. The guy has a great eye and is really professional. Of course, working with me and my haphazardness, I didn’t want him to make a storyboard or real plan, but just go out and shoot. Anyway, enjoy the video and song from my 2009 release “Good morning, goodbye” on cdbaby and iTunes.
