The Final Report

I decided it would be a good idea to copy and paste all the final report questions into my notes so I could write a really thorough and detailed report in my own time without worry about internet failure or accidental premature submittal. Upon copying and pasting my answers into the official online report form, I realized there was a word limit ...

We stumbled into some of the best memories we have. Looking through our "home video" youtube channel we found some making of videos we didn't even remember putting together.  This one! Pure gold! Thank  you for the wonderful memories!

To the Lost Video Archives

Another day and another video Timelapse lost with the pants. So many pieces of our lives are unsharable due to this wild child losing his pants. If we don’t get a video to add to our implementation report, did we even do the work? It’s been 7 years with no running water, no flushing toilet and no hot shower. We’re basically camping with Ne...

Project Build: Day 1 Site leveling

We had a successful day of digging, leveling and compacting thanks to Grandpa Yayo and his skid steer Case. Our old Massey Chitty could not attend and has been towed to the side for now. Grandpa Yayo successfully installed a culvert crossing to the west, leveled the building site, moved the shed and filled a couple of mud holes in the driveway. ...

New Year New Link

After a decade of having our websites we finally decided to close them down. They were not getting used and the idea of maintaining them was not in our interest. Our egos cried out like Frodo and the ring, “Why shouldn’t I keep it 😈🥵” We passed the test and did not renew. We shall diminish into the West and remain Sweet Radish Music ...

Ricardo Velasquez Coming Soon!

The true "Last Date" with my Uncle Richard. Words cannot express the amount of grief I feel over not getting an opportunity to make music with him while he was still here. The last words I ever heard him say in person were, "Remember your Uncle Richard Loves You. Never Forget." He whispered it in my ear upon our departure. He gave me a firm extr...

Ricardo Velasquez Album

For anyone who doesn't know, we've been working on our kids album all year when we made a tough decision to re-order the release hierarchy so we could focus on our collaboration album with Morgan's Uncle Ricardo who passed away after a long battle with cancer unfortunately. Not much later the family experienced two more losses. Uncle Ricardo's s...

Memories of Uncle Richard 1:

He was born to a religious mother and a coal mining father. I’m unclear on the details that happened during the in between but I knew he was a recovering alcoholic and that he found great comfort in going to his church. It was a different church I was told, but coming from a non-religious family I had limited...

Change of Plans

Change of Plans

Earlier this year we were planning on releasing our kids album followed by our brand new set we’ve already begun recording saved in our notes as “Evolution of a Soul”. We were pumped to have our new well installed and to have a thriving garden and farm. But those plans have evolved since as we tumbled and crashed into and through the summe...

Happy Independence Day

Happy Independence Day

Today we celebrate a day of independence. Our independence from electric bills, paying for rent, paying for all of our food, paying for a manager or a record label. Our independence is a way of life that we celebrate in place of the traditional Nationalism that is perpetuated on this day. We cannot celebrate our country when it has become so ...

Thank You for Being Here!

It’s been a long year full of uncertainty. So glad we can finally share these pics with you from our journey through the past 9 months as our well has been running dry. Life has been real and vividly difficult through this transition for our farm. We filed with the USDA to forgive our mortgage for 2021 (disaster relief) due to the pandemic/dis...

  ~ Songs for Wild Children ~

Gearing up for the continuous release of tracks for our latest Album, "Songs for Wild Children"  This project is very dear to our hearts and includes moments we shared over the microphone with our son Izzy. Let's face it sharing a tiny house home recording studio/play zone with a toddler can be frustrating, slow moving and grueling at times...

Idling in the middle

Idle time is never wasted. Boy and I have been busy busy testing aka goofing around with melt and pour soap making. Izzy and I are both happiest when we’re busy bees moving and creating changes in our world. Waiting is the hardest game I’ve played. In collaboration patience is a leading role. We sit back and wait for the time or return or he...

Abram’s Journey

2021 brought lots of changes for us. We spent a total of about 15 to 20 days together last year. Abe’s work schedule has been busy busy on all faces and the toll it took on our family was real. Too many days of working all day only to go work on chimney, climbing trees and clearing lots until dark and on weekends. Those close to us will know o...

Just like a spider we wait until the opportune moment to release music a.k.a. Boy is asleep and this is the first second we’ve had a chance to feed ourselves, bath, breathe, clean the house and why not release those singles we’ve been bragging about forever and ever. We can just stay up late, we’re exhausted anyways 😆 This one and all t...

Another New Song: Like a Spider

Another New Song: Like a Spider

This song was actually born of a request that never was to be but we're so glad the prompt was made because it caused us to write this whole song. This winter we lived with a very large orb spider who suddenly disappeared, leaving behind one very cute and tiny replica of herself in the greenhouse.  Orb/jewel/cat spiders usually die in the w...

Super Dooper Rough Cut Alert!

This is a brand spanking new song "We are an Us". Just earth side. Born in a few minutes of peaceful calm.  This was the moment when boy sat on the couch, put his headphones on and played Toca Boca Lab on his tablet for 10 minutes of blissful and studious quiet time.  This track is from a file we call "The Rememberum" which is where we...

2021 didn’t go at all as planned but we’ve made more movement and growth than we’ve ever experienced before. For the first time in a while we’ve said there’s nothing we’d do differently and we wouldn’t want to go back. We love the music we’re expe...

Happy New Year!

This year we have taken new steps to find more peace and joy in our everyday lives. Here’s Abe working on a diy dollhouse he got for Xmas. We’re making room for activities in our life that don’t profit, grow, crow or serve any other purpose outside of general enjoyment. This year has pushed us to many limits we never thought we’d breach....
