I’m excited to launch an official website for Grey and Green Digital, an idea I’ve been cooking up in my head for some time. It’s a creative studio showcasing the intersection of digital art, improvisational music, and web development.

The project brings together three passions:

Digital Art — Abstract designs featuring a mix of natural and digital elements, from geometric patterns to organic forms.

Music Curation (aka Jam Snips)– Long-form improvisational jam band mixes featuring Phish, Goose, Disco Biscuits, and other artists from the scene (created for deep listening, exercise, or jamming out in your living room).

Web & Mobile Apps — Currently featuring GTFO, an outdoor lifestyle and digital detox app, with more projects on the horizon including a full Jam Snips website.

Grey and Green Digital represents years of creative output finally collected in one place. It’s a portfolio, yes, but also a living project that will grow as I continue creating.

Check it out at greygreendigital.com and let me know what you think.

I’ve been a fan of Bibio ever since I hear “À Toute Allure” back in 2013 (?). The guitar hook on that track just hit me in the eardrums and grabbed me. I am a big fan of jangly, reverb-drenched yet clean guitar tones and this one was just perfection to my ears. Once the drums and synths kicked in, I was hooked. I could not stop listening to that track.

So when I saw that Bibio’s latest album, BIB10, dropped I knew I needed to check it out. I’ve listened all the way through and the 3rd track “Sharratt” is definitely my favorite. See above RE guitar tones and you’ll see why:

The delay effect on the main guitar riff is what stands out here. I played this in the car the other day and my son was immediately into it. It gave me a great excuse to talk about guitar effects, specifically delay pedals, and how he can listen for this on other tracks he likes (my immediate example was the Edge’s signature guitar tone on U2’s the Joshua Tree, which he knows very well).

I loved this track and decided it was a good excuse to put together some of my favorite Bibio tracks and make a quick playlist:
