“Karim, you know the coolest people.”
Hell yes I do, Tyrone. And here they are, in all their musical glory.
This is by no means a complete list of my musical friends, just the digital versions I had close by. There is no “Your Face“, “SLBH“, or the myriad of other bands which so many friends have been in and I have had the pleasure of listening too…
Or even Rob’s fantastic Dutch band (one of the finest websites on the webertubes).
This was not meant to showcase my prowess at meeting people, engaging in a simple batch of small talk which eventually blossoms into an awesome relationship filled with good times and cake, but more how lucky I am to be surrounded by music which is imagined, built and performed by awesome people whom I have had the privilege of sharing a solid high-five. Hooray, I say…
and yes, I know that rhymed.
This is the musical version of the homma, kids and if you don’t know what that is, just ask and I’ll tell you… oh how I love to tell people about the homma.
Preach it brother!

Nice work, but should I take it as a slight that I’m the only person in both bands that you mentioned you weren’t going to include? Actually, it’s probably better if those YourFace recordings stay buried. They just always seemed unfinished.
