My track Drifting Moon / Spinning Earth [off Particle Theory (2014)] comes in to this 36-hours-in-Edinburgh-Scotland mini-doc by Juan Martos and Eduardo Giménez of Vamos, Scotland, at 7:38 during a fireworks show above the city.
…An alternative guide to the capital city of Scotland. Inspired by the "36 Hours" series by The New York Times.
Snowboarders Felix Berres and Leander Greitemann teamed up with Pleasure Snowboarding Magazine and SIAMS Clothing to make a video at the Ruhrquelle resort in Germany. Set to Infinite Destination [off Hola, Sayulita! (2010) and Reflected.10×10 (2012)], this is about as close as I get to appearing in a Warren Miller film.…

Sum + Difference [disquiet0130] off Particle Thoery (2014) soundtracks a beautiful “mood board” camera test by North Carolina editor and motion designer Holden Kim.
…This was just a quick test with my new BMPCC one morning when there was a little fog in the air.
After testing, I realize that I really need the full version of DaVinci Resolve to do noise reduction.
How cool is this? she still echoes (like a summer) [off still echoes (2013)], a wistful track about long-ago summer loves and the consequences of choices, soundtracks the creation of a cookies ‘n cream milkshake on the ridiculously fun Brazilian cooking show, Torrada!Torrada! (Toast! Toast!). Guest starring Brazilian fashion and cultural phenom Karina Milanesi, this video is just everything good (and sweet) in the world.…

Always In The Sky [off :^D (2011) and Reflected.10×10 (2012)] catalyzes a zucchini carpaccio in the latest installment of the Brazilian cooking show #TorradaTorrada’s spin-off series #TorradaFresh. Amazing uses of my tracks keep coming from Luanda Gazoni. And my birthday’s tomorrow, so this is a perfect present.

Echo Lake [off Stay Home vs. The Love Shoppings (2007) and Reflected.10×10 (2012)] soundtracks a Bellais family adventure with the wildlife of Brazil’s Pantanal. Piranha fishing to Echo Lake – who could have dreamed? :^D
…A pieds, à cheval, en camion ou encore en bateau, le pantanal, c’est juste trop beau!
Trailer for a crowd sourced documentary about a day in the cycling life around Torino, Italy. Uses my track Infinite Destination [off Hola, Sayulita! (2010) and Reflected.10×10 (2012)] and in a brilliant case of bona fortuna, my friend Lee Rosevere’s stellar slice of electro-acoustic positivity, These Moments [off Music For Malls (2014)].…

A camper breaks down, leaving the Bellais family stuck overnight on a flooded road in the Brazilian Pantanal. Surrounded by hungry crocodiles, they make it through the night using collective wits, sheer grit and a little help from some kind strangers.
A new Wes Craven film?
Nope. Just another day (and night) in the Bellais family’s two-year adventure around the world in their custom fire-truck camper.…

Another stellar use of one of my tracks in the xclnt Brazilian cooking show, Torrada! Torrada!. In this episode, my 2004(!) song Windfall soundtracks the creation of spaghetti carbonara. Delícia!
As always, I {heart} everything about this (even with my track mis-titled “Windy Fall” in the credits :^D). This is the 3rd time the show has used my music.…

Romanian fashion/style bloggers The Pretty Blossoms make themselves up to three of my tracks in this vid: Windfall, Always In The Sky and Sayulita. So xclnt to see Sayulita out in the world. Very meaningful song to me.

The Momentum exhibit runs through February at the San Jose Museum Of Art. Sound artist, writer and Junto founder Marc Weidenbaum curated the sound (as an “intervention”) for one of the installations, the video Untitled #8 (2004) by Josh Azzarella. Back in August, Marc sent out the silent video as project Disquiet0138-videosonicvoid, and challenged us to create a looping piece:
…Compose a 2.5-minute soundtrack to complement the silent video “Untitled #8, 2004″ by the artist Josh Azzarella.
So this is awesome. Producer and musician Lee Rosevere asked if he could “bash and crash” over Drifting Moon / Spinning Earth, so I stripped the original drum and percussion tracks and sent him a pre-master studio file. From 3000 miles away, he came back with the glorious result above.…

Though I’ve never surfed, I’m obsessed with surfing, so this is xclnt beyond words. Australian surfer Carel Olivier showcases his hometown beach and his incredible skills to the songs Britney Sea by Wolf Asylum and my Long Road Ahead [off Goodbye Monday Blue (2009) and Reflected.10×10 (2012)].

manhattan bridge train [disquiet0011] [off still echoes (2013) and a disquiet junto project] runs underneath a look at the Pera Museum’s (Istanbul, Turkey) “Language Of The Wall” exhibition of photographs by Henry Chalfant of New York City subway car graffiti and street-art.
A perfect ride for my track.

Echo Lake [off Stay Home vs. The Love Shoppings (2007) and Reflected.10×10 (2012)] powers the middle legs of this video recap of the 500km Fundy Adventure Challenge rally. I’ve only ridden a motorcycle twice in my life – the last time over 20 years ago. I’ve not had any opportunity since, so the GoPro cycling vids popping up now w/ my songs are 100% xclnt.…

The Bellais family from France (David, Camille, Lucile et Félix, aka “DaCaLuF“) is traveling around the world in a converted old fire truck for two years. I learned all about them last week when David Bellais contacted me through vimeo to say he’d used a track of mine in one of his regular video chronicles of their experiences.…

Conversaciones (Conversations) from Jaume R. Lloret on Vimeo.
A snippet of my track she still echoes (like a summer) runs over the closing credits of a meditative short film called “Conversations,” directed by Jaume R. Lloret, which competed in Spain’s Jameson Notodo Film Festival. Also was selected for the Radio City Festival in the section “Valenciana Shorts” and a finalist in the Mostra de Cinema Jove of Elche.…

WFMU’s Liz Berg from 6/27/2014
Few things are more awesome (or cool or hot or sick or tight or quiche or jelly or whatever euphemism you use to say “yes!”) than getting played on WFMU. In this case, my track Windfall (also at the Free Music Archive) spun midway through the June 27th episode of the Liz Berg show, which airs every Monday morning from 9 to noon (podcast stream/download/subscription available at link).…
