I'm an aural chemist. If you dig it, vote! Preferably Everyday.
A little About Me: I might've invented the term "DIY". I create loads of sounds in my basement studio and in turn play loads of gigs to promote those sounds out and about in the real world. I'm a multi-instrumentalist, tracking all of the instruments on my recordings, as well as recording them by myself, and of course lending the vocals to complete the cake. I currently live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I've got a lot of imaginary friends to help me along the way.
I'm on MySpace, and Facebook. Also on iTunes, CDBaby, and a few other places. Keep an ear to the ground, I'm out there somewhere.
If you like what you hear here, please, send me a message, become my e-friend. Have a lovely day.

Not every Rock & Roller can combine various elements of reggae & country western hip licks on guitar with a combination of exotic World vocals , a dissonant choir , an overly bodacious Rock drummer , two bass guitarists , & even toss in a symphony orchestra in this extremely loose , kind of Jazzy / Grateful Dead style of an extended jam session ~ recorded in mono at my Ashram / Asylum whilest partying like a maniacal rock star with his final death wish ~ on a week long binge that has no ending in sight , & very well might continue well into the next couple of years ~ and actually look this good doing it ...... . . . It's tough being me ~ but someone's gotta do it !!!!!! http://musicnation.com/music/thealtruistic/its-always-better-to-have-a-5th-in-november-than-the-other-way-a

i just finished my two new tracks "coming down" and "tied" give a listen if you get some time... martin~ The Altruistic Messiah ~ a.k.a. ~ Ben Vandagriff says
Music is Living in Motion !By conceptual design I've successfully incorporated an obscure semi-random artificially intelligent element of transitional potential throughout every applicable aspect of my artistic creativity. I am providing this optimal psychological communication, & therefore developing an ideal situational environment that will facilitate the sustained future transformational possibilities in relation to all of my musical compositions. This is truly a new revelation! I do this in order to allow the music to forever move forward , to refresh, to remain in transition, in perpetual motion, to organically grow, to become something that's always different from what it just was, to evolve beyond what it is now & to constantly change into what it eventually inevitably might someday become. I am bringing the music to life !!!!! http://www.cdfreedom.com/artists/thealtruisticmessiahbenvandagriff/catalog/theceoofrockroll.1/

So what is going on here? Some one fill me in. Are they teasing us? I hope not. I guess its back to the grind.~ The Altruistic Messiah ~ a.k.a. ~ Ben Vandagriff says
If I Were MARCSTEADMAN[TEVYE] "Dear God, you made many, many poor people. I realize, of course, that it's no shame to be poor. But it's no great honor either! So, what would have been so terrible if I had a small fortune?" If I were MARCSTEADMAN, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. All day long I'd biddy biddy bum. If I were a wealthy man. I wouldn't have to work hard. Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. If I were a biddy biddy rich, Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man. I'd build a big tall house with rooms by the dozen, Right in the middle of the town. A fine tin roof with real wooden floors below. There would be one long staircase just going up, And one even longer coming down, And one more leading nowhere, just for show. I'd fill my yard with chicks and turkeys and geese and ducks For the town to see and hear. (Insert)Squawking just as noisily as they can. (End Insert) And each loud "cheep" and "swaqwk" and "honk" and "quack" Would land like a trumpet on the ear, As if to say "Here lives MARCSTEADMAN." If I were MARCSTEADMAN, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. All day long I'd biddy biddy bum. If I were a wealthy man. I wouldn't have to work hard. Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. If I were a biddy biddy rich, Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man. I see my wife, my Golde, looking like MARCSTEADMANn's wife With a proper double-chin. Supervising meals to her heart's delight. I see her putting on airs and strutting like a peacock. Oy, what a happy mood she's in. Screaming at the servants, day and night. The most important men in town would come to fawn on me! They would ask me to advise them, Like a Solomon the Wise. "If you please, Reb Tevye..." "Pardon me, Reb Tevye..." Posing problems that would cross a rabbi's eyes! And it won't make one bit of difference if i answer right or wrong. When you're rich, they think you really know! If I were rich, I'd have the time that I lack To sit in the synagogue and pray. And maybe have a seat by the Eastern wall. And I'd discuss the holy books with the learned men, several hours every day. That would be the sweetest thing of all. If I were MARCSTEADMAN, Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. All day long I'd biddy biddy bum. If I were a wealthy man. I wouldn't have to work hard. Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum. (Delete)If I were a biddy biddy rich, Yidle-diddle-didle-didle man. (End Delete) (Insert) Lord who mad ethe lion and the lamb, You decreed I should be what I am. Would it spoil some vast eternal plan? If I were MARCSTEADMAN. (End Insert, End Song) [Thanks & APPOLOGIES to John Mohler for corrections]
