Word

"We learn that even a good cause can prove as bad as its conflicting source, when we have triumph and are left with the thirst of a mere self-gratifying crusade. The rules of social decency..."

- Hektor Thillet

I thank the artist at ccmixter.org, and you - the listener.

Word


Hello, everyone out there following this little musical blend of spices I like to call The Savvy & the Chic. So, to tell you, that my mixing wheels finally got going again--after a crazy and self-extended holiday season, and this new mix has spawned out of it!

The new mix, titled VISCERAL, is an exploration of the more reflective moods in music concerning feelings and intuition: the reflective, the emotional, the angry, the emotive, the perceptual, the visceral. Spending the holidays in Florida with my best friends got me in the mood. Florida/my friends/and the type of life-style I experienced there is most definitely an era I remember in a visceral way. I thank the artist at ccmixter.org for supplying the matter that brings all these emotions to life. I thank you for listening and hope you float away in a visceral wind with this album.

The Savvy & the Chic Vol.3: Carmen *mixed by Hektor Thillet*

This release of TSATC is a mother’s present of sorts… My mom hasn’t been in the best of shapes lately [she’ll survive]. But! Since I am her biggest fan, decided that my next mix of “The Savvy & the Chic”, would be dedicated to her. So-Here it is! My focus for this one was "the Latin culture" and it's delicious blends in music with the rest of the world. Volume-two was a glimpse of things to come. Volume-three is the whole 2-cd of the idea realized. I thank everyone over at ccmixter, for their contributions, and for making such groovalicious music. Of course, I thank you the listener as well; you keep the grooving-moving. Enjoy-gracias.

P.S. The album artwork, produced by yours-truly, features the muse [my mom] in my FRIDA-esque of goodness & warmth.

Photo Session: The Devil

One of my best friends and partner in crime, Joe, is one very peculiar character... He is smart like no other mortal. He is attractive--like mischief is attractive. He is refined like a glass of expensive wine. He is funny--in the way a good villain is funny. He is always fair--like nature is fair [some survive/some are crushed-lol]. He is the best of friends--like an addiction. He is a lawyer...

Photo Session: Chillin with Brian

Back in 2006-was it? [not sure] I was hanging out with my buddy Brian at me old place in Fort Lauderdale; listening to good music/talking/perhaps sipping good wine? [hehe]. Eventually we got bored and I pulled out the camera; Brian pulled out the model in him. I tried to do a sort of study of him in many different lights/styles/moods. So! This is was "Chillin with Brian"...
