Ice Volcano - Milwaukee Lake Michigan Before the Skyline during Midday in late January 2009... New Soul Amp Instrumental tune that might become a song

Here's a new tune that might become part of a new album some time (hopefully soon). Right now it's just me (yep, that's me on the drums) as the other two are doing other things... some of which you can find out about if you look hard enough on this blog. Anyhow, here's the song... it will get vocals added at sometime, but just thought you might like to hear this way first:

The level is a bit low, so you'll have to turn up your volume some.

Now for some pics:

Milwaukee Skyline on the ice formations (nice shot of an Ice Volcano in the foreground) on the shores of Lake Michigan during midday in January 2009. This was taken on Lake Michigan at Bradford Beach on a "warmer" day...like 20 degrees Farhenheit. Photos by Mike Fisk

The reflections off the ice and water in real life are very nice...They are hard to capture with my point and shoot camera (a six year old Canon Powershot s30). That camera has take probably somewhere close to 100,000 pics. It's a been wonderful.

This is all Lake Michigan Ice (not the erosion boulders). This is Bradford Beach where they do the polar bear club thing on New Years Day. Can you imagine jumping in the water with all that ice? I have pics of them doing it that I'll share with you soon.

Sunrise Trees on Lake Michigan on the Coldest Day in 2009. Golden Fire Sunrise on the Lake. Free MP3 Music to Download. Links to Sunrise Photos

Golden sunrise covered by this tree. I love the way the mist off the lake looks like fire in the sun. This was the coldest day of the year in 2009 (it was taken on January 16,2009 and I'm hoping there isn't a colder day since we are already at mid February as of this writing). The temperature was at -20 degrees Farenheit. Photos by Mike Fisk

I though that blocking the sunrise using trees would make for interesting photos...

BTW, I'm working on some more music... here's an instrumental that might progress in a song with vocals:

New Song for New Album - Maybe - mp3

And more trees at sunrise on Lake Michigan pics:

Fire on the lake... so it appears, huh? What an amazing effect.

Ok, here's more autumn photos. These are autumn leaf closeups that I took in Milwaukee, WI in 2008. I have a ton of autumn pics to post, so you'll be suffering through more. The tune is a 15 minute instrumental, but well worth the listen.

So here's your free music download:

Weird pond reflection photos from Wisconsin. Building in pond reflection image with willow trees changing color. And a new Soul Amp Instrumental. =)

New Song for New Album - Maybe - mp3

Odd and weird upside down picture of building during Autumn in Wisconsin. This is at Parkplace Milwaukee, WI. The willow tree helps with the illusion since its branches are hanging down making it look like the foreground foliage is upright. Photos by Mike Fisk

The pond at Parkplace Milwaukee was so still that day that I was able to get these very odd shots of the Parkplace towers. The willow tree really helps to frame the shot because its branches hang downward which helps a lot with the illusion. It's very cool that the autumn colors adds to the pic. I hope you find them interesting.

OK, this new song does not have the other Soul Amp members on it. I play all the intruments so don't blame M2 for the cr*ppy drumming. It does need Bradley's guitar on it.

Oh, and there are more pics of the same here:

Strange Photo of asteroid about to hit building? Or an Upside down or upside up Building Reflection in a Pond at Parkplace in Autumn in Wisconsin?

New Song for New Album - Maybe - mp3

Upside down building during Autumn in Wisconsin?... or is it an asteroid about to hit a building? Autumn reflections on the a still pond in 2008 at Parkplace in Milwaukee, WI. Photos by Mike Fisk

Just some weird shots I took. The pond was so still that I thought I'd play around with the reflections. I hope you dig the weirdness and enjoy all the oddities this site contains. Please explore and have an awesome week! I'll post more later in the week. The song is brand new. Yep, that's me on the drums. Not sure if I'll add vocals to it or not. I'm just trying to accumulate stuff for a new album. Enjoy.

Oh and here's more pics of the building:

Sunrise Milwaukee Skyline Photos on Lake Michigan on the Coldest Day in the Northern Midwest of 2009

Sunrise Milwaukee Skyline on the ice formations on the shores of Lake Michigan at around 6:30 AM. This was taken on Lake Michigan at Bradford Beach on a subzero morning with temperatures at -16 to -20. Photos by Mike Fisk

I think the ice looks very interesting in this soft morning light and the reflection of the sun on the buildings make them look like gold.

Look closely, there are lots of photographers in the mornging on the lake.

The sun hits the Milwaukee buildings and turns them into gems. I dig the moon and the crossed contrails.

Big old boulders to protect the shore from erosion are covered in ice. I really like this skyline photo of Milwaukee.
