I just got nominated for best techno song at the JPF Awards show in L.A.
(Apparently a big deal according to the pic I saw of the venue)

No reason to post this other than I've had a few beers and it seemed like a good idea at the time.

Weird thing is... like usual... it's not one of those songs where you spent months writing it and working your butt off.
It's a tune I threw together in about 30 minutes just as a lark.

Why does that always happen??
You work for months on a tune... post it, and nobody says anything.
You spend a few minutes doing something half-assed, and it wins an award.

Weird.

Anyhoooo...
If anybody has any opinions, I'd love to hear em.
Like... is it really any good or did I just luck out?

Yeah, that's the only song of yours I've ever heard, but I certainly think it is very good. Congrats on the nomination, I hope you win!

Not sure if I've heard this one or not, but I do enjoy most everything I've heard of yours. "Neon Lies" is probably one of my favorites though. Not sure why, but I really like it, except for the telephone rings lol. I'll give this one a listen to once I get home, and let you know what I think...

Congrats on the nomination! You deserve it.

Great job feller. *Pats Schmange on back*
