A Song a Week 9: The Nemesis – I Wish I Could

The Nemesis — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 21:00:32 +0000

Here’s another rerecording of one of my older songs. This was actually the first song I ever recorded solo, as a Christmas present for Ashley the first year we were married. I’ve never been happy with that recording, and I’m still not 100% happy with this one. The guitar sounds a little [...]

A Song a Week 8: The Nemesis – Trophy Wife

The Nemesis — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 20:26:30 +0000

We’ve come to the end of our month of love songs, but I still have one more to post next week. I changed a line towards the end of this song… the original line was “I won’t kill you with a knife.” Who would have guessed Ashley would think that was creepy and [...]

Week 7: The Nemesis – I’m Yours

The Nemesis — Fri, 19 Feb 2010 20:47:48 +0000

This song is kind of a cover of my own song. The original version appears on Top Songs, with just vocals and synths. The new version is sped up some, has rerecorded vocals, and now features guitar in addition to the synths. I think this might be my first guitar solo, and [...]

Week 6: The Nemesis – Valentine’s Day #6

The Nemesis — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 01:03:21 +0000

My sixth week of weekly songs, AND my sixth Valentine’s Day with Ashley. Did I blow your mind?

The Nemesis Featured in Squarecat Comics

The Nemesis — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 22:03:16 +0000

My friend Jen (of Honorable Mentions fame) mentioned one of my songs in her journal comic. For those who don’t regularly read her comic, she draws herself as a cat, but Moe is actually a cat. Moe is not a fan of my songwriting.

The Nemesis — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 22:51:50 +0000

I decided that I’m going to do love songs for the month of February. Here’s the first one, I Get Lost.

Week 4: The Bad Felt – I Don’t Want to Live on the Moon

The Nemesis — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 18:26:04 +0000

Introducing The Bad Felt! My friend Bren and I started this project years ago, covering songs from Sesame Street and other Henson works in a darker Tom Waits/ Nick Cave kind of style. From the beginning we decided to wait until we had three songs completed before we posted anything online, and that [...]

Week 3: The Nemesis – If You Don’t Know Me by Now (Teddy Pendergrass cover/ Jay Reatard tribute)

The Nemesis — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 19:48:29 +0000

Last Wednesday I was so shocked to hear about the death of Jay Reatard, I almost stopped working on Pi to 100 Digits to cover one of his songs. Later that night, I heard that Teddy Pendergrass passed away as well. In tribute to the two artists, I covered Pendergrass’s biggest hit, in [...]
