Meitz New Album (Vertikal)
Yeah so it's not my best recording ever but the Germans seem to dig it and it's getting a lot of internet radio play. Do a google on "Meitz" and "White Powder" and see what you can find. Plus pick up the album, it's dope, and I'm not just saying it cause I'm on it (trust me, royalties ain't flowin from Berlin).

Music you need to check out
The Insidious Rays
Jersey representing! My buddies Jon and crew keeping it real out by exit 9.
http://www.insidiousrays.com/

Meitz
Sick keyboard player and composer in Berlin. He’s played with everyone from Jazzanova to your momma and is one of the pioneers of C64. (BTW I appear on his next album if he ever gets his act together and finishes mastering the damn thing!)

Robbie Seahag
The undisputed king of guitar manipulation and rubber band cocks. Robbie has been in like a billion bands you might know, most recently The Sound of Urchin and Project/Object. His solo stuff is… well you check it out
http://robbieseahag.com

Planeside
My buddy Ken’s (Jonies Butterfly) newest band blowing up in CT.
http://www.planeside.com/

Sound of Urchin
Robbie’s latest band, hard and fun and funny as hell.
http://www.soundofurchin.com/

Sicboy
CTHC at it’s finest. I’ve known John, Chris and Drew forever, and I can tell you no one does it harder or better (wow that sounds kinda perverse).
http://www.sicboy.com/

Elvis McMan
Crazy punk bastards featuring my frightening buddy James Rockwood, the first guy to do a hockey pull on me in 15 years who has an annoying habit of calling me SoftWood (bastard…).
http://elvismcman.com/

Chief Rocka
Awesome Ohio hip-hop collective blowing up in Akron, Cleveland, and beyond. Lots of love guys.

Carl Restivo
Former singer for IZ, Wyclef collaborator (check the new album!) and generally dope guy and good friend. Keep representing brother.

Poets and Writers much cooler than me

Hassidic erotica, ‘nuff said.

Diane Downey
Good friend, mentor, forger of companies, Diane gave you all the advice you’ll ever need to know about managing that pesky bureaucratic mess you work in. An amazing woman who I miss dearly.
http://www.amazon.com

Loki Kevorkian (Rogue Scholars)
Loki is my favorite little b***h a** punk poet spoken word star wannabee I know. For some reason the awesome Rogue Scholars let him hang about. If you’re real nice he’ll probably give you a copy of his latest book: Club Fascistland (which is a Gay Wizard of Oz set in a dystopian New York, need I say more?)
http://www.amazon.com

Jillian Medoff
Wonderful lady and friend with two very good books wrecking the literary world right now (heck they made her first Hunger Point into a movie!).
http://jillianmedoff.com

Michelle Pauli
Guardian writer, sex guru, spiritual guide – I’m pretty sure Michelle thinks I’m just some immature drunken American poet (she’d be right) but I love her anyway.
http://www.amazon.co.uk

Jaime Salazar
American Chicano leaves the corporate world to join the French Foeign Legion. Sounds sane to me.
http://www.amazon.com

Cool Mags

All your urban needs, clothing, commentary, and chicks making out.

Dope poetry collective. They got some of me and Loki's stuff on there I believe.
