Another new track from Second Signal: "Hey Leyla"

Here's track three off of the upcoming EP "Organics V" entitled "Hey Leyla".  I don't actually know anyone named Leyla, but the little vocal part made that sound so there you go.  Enjoy!  Like the other one, this is a live mix and not mastered...just something I made.

Presenting "Plague", the first track off of my forthcoming "Organics V" EP

All,

I am happy to share with you "Plague", the first track off of my upcoming "Organics V" EP.  "Plague" is a short, simple barn-burner club track that I built from the ground up to be played live.  My new EP will be entirely composed of tracks written in thsi way, specifically to be played live.  This particular take is one of about three live recordings I did over the course of a few hours.  Like the previous four "Organics" EP's, I'm doing these all as un-edited one-shots.

Special thanks to Preston Page for permission to use and abuse the cover art photo embedded into the MP3.  Please enjoy this free release from Second Signal!

Cheers,
Cg

Health Log: Day One

So, Consider October 3rd the beginning of the end for me...that is, the end of flipping back and forth between 25 - 30 pounds over the course of several months.  I have GOT to do something to keep that in check, and while I know most of the issue I had in weighing in this morning was water weight and the lack of BodyPump for a few weeks, it's clear that I need to get my crap together.

So, here is the plan.

I am re-joining the Gym here at MasterCard while retaining my Gold's Gym membership for the classes.  The plan is to do at least 60 minutes of cardio during the day and follow that up with more structured, focussed activities at night.  For the aforementioned activities, I'm looking at either Beach Body's Insanity program with Shaun T or a supplement of classes with the GGX trainers at my Gold's.  Those usually come in the form of Body Combat, Body Pump, Body Flow and potentially Body Attack (which I admittedly did NOT like at first but might be better if led by Faith, so we'll see).

I'll be tracking weight and food via LoseIt on the iPhone and generally avoiding any bad carbohydrates after lunch.  Additionally, I am officially calling a moratorium on any kind of candy during the holiday season...no Mike N' Ikes, Swedish Fish or Jelly Bellies.  And no cake, cookies or sweetened Starbucks things.

Let's do this.  I'll be logging these things like this:

#20By12: 215lbs [-], 24.4% [-] BFP, Mood: Blah

Gaming: Necropolis 2350: Pre-Game Communication #002

//Encryption Verified
//Knight Commander Vorkann Confirmed
//Lazarite Protocol 17-B32

//Begin Communique

Vorkann,
May God's grace find you well.  We have a situation to the north in the test beds.  His imminence is concerned about the lack of response from LTF028 in the last few weeks.  No supplies have been requisitioned and no reports have come back.  We have enabled Lock-down Protocol Alpha-Seven in lieue of what happened at LTF023 last year.  Please see if your Preceptory in the north can assist with a strike team.  We've dug out Sergeant Lucas from the Union borders to make his way there now...he should arrive in a few days time with his envoy.  I need not remind you of the LTF023 incident, Vorkann, and the sensitivity this brings around both the office of the Pope and the Lazarites in general.  You are instructed to operate all communications and data recovery under protocol Zed-Seven.
By your leave,
Knight Commander Pragma > New Vatican Ordo Lazaritae
