I've been a US Naval Aviator / Officer, Merrill Lynch AE, medical diagnostic laboratory systems sales guy, lobbyist, sales team leader and software regional sales manager. I'm just as proud of being a dad and a husband. I consider myself just another fortunate guitar-playing writer* doing what I can to enjoy the beauty of life. Sometimes, that requires a good hard look into the abyss, because without stark contrast and perspective, the brilliance of the blessings we all need to be grateful for, might otherwise easily be taken for granted.

Peace be with you,

Marc

Hi,

Once again it's time to thank all my friends and fans for all the success you have allowed me here on SoundClick.
I've released two songs and both have hit #1 on the Rock charts. I couldn't ask for any better support than that.

I figure everyone must be getting pretty sick of the same two songs so I've done it again.

I just released another remix of Kate Lesing's amazing vocals. It's called "Beat is Coming" and as you might guess by the title it kicks! It is heavily layered with guitars as you might expect from me and I also added a few surprises to keep you on your toes.
I guess you could best describe it as a Classic Rock/Disco Hybrid. LOL wink ;)

If you get a chance please check it out and let me know what you think. Of course you're welcome to leave a few stars. wink ;)
You can hear it at my profile page or use this link,

Thanks again for your support!

What's up yalum...
Dropping ya my thanksss.

I know I can't give you the whole world,
but I can promise you I will do my part.
We are both birds of free spirit,
but we all fly together forever.

Your love for music has made me love my life,
everyday seems like a blessing.
I feel so lucky and honored that im not alone.

Here's to hoping for laughter, intelligent conversation, craziness, sharing, caring for each other, passion, exploration, honesty, comfort, and respect.

Thank you for sharing your love with me,
music is truly a wonderful gift.

So have fun and drop by anytime.
Blesss.

The P.R.C. / Triple M.B.

Hey Yalum,
There are two songs I love.
They are collabs...
Pascal did them both with me and Michael Duran was part of one. They are Naked Tree and Meaningless Existence.
I just write songs and try to sing em.

Yalum,

I have to agree with Brian on the phrasing . This is the kind of music that can take you away from everyday worries into a surrealistic peace mode...

Thanks for sharing with the world and drop by anytime....DL
