First post...more to follow? Who can tell...

Interesting...ok....let's blog....

Spent the day with my wife and 10 week old son climbing the trail up Pyramid Mountain near Boonton, NJ to view the Tripod Rock...I have been before but the wife has not...

As a matter of fact, I went previously on a photographic trip for my Irish Traditional/Celtic Rock group "The Stone Soup Band." Pictures for our website...which I design and maintain.

So..why this blog amongst thousands of other blogs???...Why not...an experiment...

Why the title of Ombient?

Well, I perform live loop based ambient music under the name "Ombient". "Om" as in the hindu mantra and "bient" as in ambient. I plan to document my experience as a musician here.

The music, by the way, is extremely ambient in nature... check it out at:

...until I can get a better web provider anyway...

I am also a bit of a digital artist...not that great..but if your interested check out:

What's Revelwood you ask? It this cool artisans colony based in south NJ. For info, check out:

Anyway...that's enough to keep interested (interesting?) people busy for awhile...time to post a link from the Ombient home page to here...
