Legends Of Rock #03 - Ray Davies

Legends Of Rock #03 - Ray Davies

Next up, the leader of my favorite rock band*: The Kinks, Mr. Ray Davies. The first time I heard a Kinks record (middle school, Sleepwalker), it really did a number on me. The Kinks have been the most enduring and consistent musical obsession I've had since that first taste. Ray Davies is the man behind the sometimes absurd, sometimes lovely rock-pop group that spanned three decades. I'm afraid The Kinks are one of those bands that most everyone has heard of, but not so many have heard anything other than You Really Got Me or Lola. Hoping this will help and ya'll like the illustration! I'm starting to feel pretty honored to just draw these Legends, as I'm maybe getting a bit obsessed by each of them as I stare at their photos and read of their accomplishments all the while listening to their radical music.

The Incorrigible Kinks by Austineustice on Mixcloud

Legends Of Rock #06 - Paul McCartney

Legends of Rock #06 - Paul McCartney

Fab four going strong with the guy holding it down on the low end and writing a whole lot of tunes - some not the best, but some timeless and wonderful. Don't get much bigger a rockstar than Paul.

I’ve Been Missing Sharing Music, So I’d Like To Get Back Into Mixes. I’ll Plan On Having One Each

I’ve been missing sharing music, so I’d like to get back into mixes. I’ll plan on having one each month with an accompanying illustration. It’ll mostly be what I’m listening to at the time with some perennial favorites mixed in no doubt.

Working on some illustrations for a site redesign - rotating banner style. Hoping these will liven up the brand and make it a bit more personable. This one is about thinking, reading spread sheets, and weighing the pros and cons before commenting. You can't see it, but that spread sheet goes to next week.

Pixel art out the wazoo, folks.  It’s gonna keep coming, so I hope you like it.  I do.  Here is a little something I made for a website in case it went down… which is kind of a bummer, so I tried to make it fun.

I made a little “booklet of warning” as part of a proposal to my wife. Working in black and white with screentone was different and fun for me. Bound this little book with a glued spine and the help of an archivists toolkit (see: bone folding tool).

I Have Begun The Super Trip, Wherein Myself And Two Friends Travel From Seattle To Los Angeles Via Car

I have begun the Super Trip, wherein myself and two friends travel from Seattle to Los Angeles via car and bicycle. The first day wasn’t so exciting because it involved getting to JFK, sitting in an aeroplane for 6 hours then settling in at the friend’s apartment in Seattle. There is so much to come on this trip, and I plan to post some drawings.

Hello All! I Make Music Under The Moniker Prescription Strength Hugs And Have Been Doing So For A Whole

Hello all! I make music under the moniker Prescription Strength Hugs and have been doing so for a whole lot of years. I've decided to put out a compilation collecting tracks from the first four EPs I made during 2005-2007. There is some good stuff in here, some rougher stuff but it's all the stuff that's made me who I am as a maker today. All instruments played and songs written by me. Hope you enjoy! Take a look at the newly set up Bandcamp page to download this puppy for free (but don't let that stop you from spending copious amounts of digi-cash on it). Thanks.

I’ve Been A Bit Busy With Regulation Room stuff And Summer Stuff Like Bicycling And Getting Real

I’ve been a bit busy with Regulation Room stuff and summer stuff like bicycling and getting real panicky about the warmth and sunshine almost being over. I drew some people’s heads in pixelart for the RegRoom team members page which’ll be in the next version that is launching real soon.
