Jem Sighting!
Today in New York City I had the pleasure of getting together with Jem Godfrey, keyboardist and mastermind behind the band Frost.

Jem and I had a great time talking about music and technology and especially jamming on the iPhone! He has posted a video of our get together, so check it out!

It was our first in person meeting and we became fast friends!

Here are some pics of the hang...

Water Forest
After three days of visiting hospitals and doctors on my vacation due to the fact that my daughter Kayla broke her arm, I needed to create my own peaceful sonic space. Using my laptop and a Korg Nano in the dark, while everyone else was sleeping, I created this ambient texture. I hope you also find it meditative.

Rudess Experiment!
Experimenting late one night in the studio - I did it with ohmboyz on a structure sound-pianoteq through sugarbytes effectrix and a granulator plug on a clav sound!

Feeling creative?
I'm looking for somebody who can do caricatures in a pen and ink line drawing style for a project.

If you are interested to be part of an upcoming project of mine please submit at least one JPEG of your work to Salty! - salty@jordanrudess.com (No hi-res images at this time, just web sized previews)

Musically,

The Diary Blowout!
All the strangeness and more...

As yours truly recovers from a whirlwind adventure doing his part on the new Dream Theater album, I found myself doing all sorts of crazy things Wednesday and Thursday evening while at the piano.

Here is an intimate look at what I've been doing at the piano. All recorded to my iphone...Grab it quick before I decide to delete it all!!!

Musically,
