It took “Too Much Time” to get this blog up

Shortly after meeting John Vanderslice and Minna Choi in the lobby of the SF Conservatory of Music, a good-natured debate about the best burritos in the city and the NBA playoffs became the easiest ice breaker in awkward history. The dude is just that cool. He and Minna make a great team; the level of mutual respect bouncing back and forth between the two of them is like watching Stockton and Malone mid pick and roll. John trusts Minna to dissect a song’s DNA and reassemble it as a new organism–a Frankenstein–with added limbs and digits, a wider range of grunts, and a much smoother gate. The first song from our four hour session with JV, Minna, and a revolving cast of incredibly talented, generous and crazy busy Magik Magik Orchestra players was, “Too Much Time,” the video for which we premiered on ABC News.

Huge thanks to Dodge, Matt and Amrit for their support.
