First Video in the Red Raspus Round-Up Series: Record Store Day 2012

I finally finished a new video for my new official YouTube channel and have started a new series called Red Raspus Round-Up. The videos under the umbrella of Red Raspus Round-Up will cover events and experiences with photos, videos, audio -- whatever I can round-up! For starters, I did a round-up of Record Store Day 2012, which took place last Saturday. In addition to photos from the day, there's a complete video unboxing/unpacking of all the stuff I got, including the official freebie bag. I hope you enjoy, and if you haven't checked out our new channel, head on over and subscribe...

Red Raspus Design Site Debuts

I've finally launched a separate site for my little music-design projects, and with a few new things going live in the next few weeks, I needed a better way to showcase them. If you haven't seen the Periodic Table of Jazz or Visualizing Kind of Blue: Flamenco Sketches before, now is your chance! It’s a little bare right now, but those buttons at the bottom will be filling up in no time, just wait. Thanks for your support, and Happy New Year!

Official Launch of Jazz Photo Daily, Version 2.0!

One of my pet projects has finally come to completion -- almost a year after first testing the waters of the jazz photography blogosphere, Jazz Photo Daily is now officially live! After a massive redesign, a CMS switch, plus three solid months of content, Jazz Photo Daily is now a runaway train of jazz photography online. The goal was to create a blog that highlights the many talented folks out there taking photography of jazz music and musicians. I've long been a fan of jazz photography, so I thought I've bring my love to the masses. Here's our completely redesigned home page...

... plus the redesigned Jazz Photography Super-Mega Store site...

... but I'm happiest with the look of the archive page...

If you would like your stuff posted here, drop me an e-mail and point me in the right direction. Most of the content comes via Flickr RSS feeds or a few blogs, but I'm always looking for new stuff to post and promote. I hope you enjoy the site as much I enjoy looking for stuff to post on it!
