Radiohead "All I Need" Video



Very moving video from Radiohead's In Rainbows album, simple and beautifully executed. Regardless of what you think of them as a band this video says a lot about the cost our modern culture and the sufferings of people in the 3rd world.

Old-school Jamey album (1995)


Several of my college compadres have been bugging me to put this album up, so of course I oblige, it's my first official album, recorded in 1995 on a 4-track in my parents garage. Rough, unique, some bad singing (hey I was still learning) but a creative and interesting album nonetheless. The source has aged a little (it was on cassette after all) but the magic of digital brings it back to life. Grab it at the bottom of my MUSIC PAGE.

Check out this sample track, inspired by seeing a Greenpeace sticker on my friend Andrew West Griffin's fumes-belching station wagon.

"Eco People"

I dabble in electronic music at times, but this thing is nuts! I could never play something on this level but the "toy box" way it's put together looks fun.

"Barnacle Boy" Novel excerpt:


So because I have a disorder called "I can't stop trying to make things in various creative genres" I'm working on a novel, the working title is "Barnacle Boy" but I think that may change. It's set in Rabaul, Papua New Guinea sometime before the local volcano erupted and buried the town in ash (I lived in PNG for five years as a kid.) The story explores the place where faith and pain and money meet, and is told from the perspective of a young MK who spends seven years drifting around the island after his father is killed. It's still rough, I finished the first draft but it's too short and needs quite a bit of work. I may try publishing it myself on Lulu when I get it done.

Check out a short sample here.

Featured song "Amazing"



"Amazing"


The most recent song I've written, "Amazing" started as one verse, then months later clarified and became a complete song as I worked on a project for an orphanage in Africa. "Amazing" is featured on my recent EP "Joyfull Noise" and can be downloaded for free on my MUSIC PAGE.

Amazing
by Jamey Clayberg
Copyright © 2008 Loveseat Creative

Please open up my eyes, I can not devise
The mystery inside this life
So many hurting souls out there in the cold
Calling for a hand to hold

Every little one, cry to the sky above
And it all comes down to Amazing Love
When the shadow falls may they find Light somehow
And it all comes down to Amazing Love

In my wildest dream, I cannot perceive
A world outside of me, this life
So many hurting hearts and people torn apart
Waiting for a spark to light

Every little one, cry to the sky above
And it all comes down to Amazing Love
When the shadow falls may they find Light somehow
And it all comes down to Amazing Love

I looked up and I saw you,
Shining like the Sun

FLiP: A Short Film


(This is old news to some but new to my blog) In 04 a bunch of friends and I made a short film called FLiP, we shot it in our hometown with a very limited budget but a lot of effort and fun. I operated the camera, edited the public domain music and was a general "joe" on the set.
Remember those ads in the backs of comic books promising "X-Ray Specs" and "Giant floating monsters 6 feet tall?" FLiP is the story of a boys imagination about what those wonderful toys might be like, and the reality of what he actually gets in the mail (6 to 8 weeks later.)

You can watch the trailer here and buy the DVD here. The DVD has tons of extras, commentary tracks, photos from the set, lots of great design by the writer/director Kirk Demarais and a "making of" feature that I directed and edited.

UPDATE: The writer and co-creator Kirk Demarais posted a nice-quality version of the film to Vimeo, so you can watch it right now (3 cheers for the web.)

Top-Secret Soundtrack


This jumbled-up graphic is a frame from a top-secret animation project I had the pleasure of doing the music for. I can't tell you anything about it yet other than it's really cool and fun and will hopefully show for the first time at ComicCon 2008 in San Diego. I did almost all the music and most of the sound effects and had a blast. Here are four songs from the soundtrack, all original Jamey C music written and recorded in my studio (also known as an extra bedroom jammed with gear.)

"Into Town (Your Love Instrumental)"


"Carl Finch"


"Deception Falls"


"Chief Kanum"

Kuler.com


KULER is an a-maze-ing site by Adobe for designers, artists, anyone interested in color combinations. I must truly be a design geek cuz I can play with the sliders and color combos and shades forever. You can drag and drop color combos straight into Adobe apps (I know, sick, right?)

Changes underway


New site design going partially live today, so if the menu items look strange or jump from look to look have faith, all will sync in a day or two. Also going to add a BUNCH of music and such in the next few weeks. (photo I took on my Iphone at my house, will be featured on the cover of an EP I'll be posting soon.)
