hide, December 13, 1964 – May 2, 1998 (photographer unknown) Before my love for music became my life, there was hide. I only learned of hide a few years ago and developed a love for his music and vision ever since. The impact of his talent and personality has left others like myself inspired forever. May is a special month to me for so many reasons. It has important memories of both sadness and happiness of past intertwined. May brings out the beauty of people and the colors of spring to life, just as hide’s music will keep being born anew in the hearts of those that love him. Rest in peace, hide. I hope we join ranks in the future and continue to create.

Rest in peace, hide.
I hope we join ranks in the future and continue to create.

Quite possibly my most favorite instrumental piece to ever be written…

“The Fire” (from Ellipse by Imogen Heap) struck a chord with me to the near point of tears upon first listening to it in ‘09. The resonating still sounds of a piano and fire crackling are perfection.

Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.

“

Why is it important to know what I had for breakfast? Or who I went to bed with? Or what sneakers I am wearing? If it’s relevant to understanding my music, then so be it. But if it’s purely to satisfy the media’s obsession with celebrity, then no thanks. I don’t want to play that game.

And resentment rides high but emotions won’t grow
And we’re changing our ways, taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again.”
