Tonight’s Xmas Eve edition of Children of Saturn will feature Danny (who may well give us some form of Xmas update) as well as a debut from Butterscotch Bonnet (not exactly who that is, but I suspect it’s some kind of collaboration between Danny, Rynne and Julie Slick). Tune in here at 6pm Pacific time. I won’t be listening since I’ll be balls deep in Xmas celebrations, so if Danny… Read More »Danny on Children of Saturn tonight
Posted on Toolband today was a link to Vince De Franco‘s latest project, the Mandala Synapse. I’m no expert, but it looks like a gizmo that allows you to connect a range of musical devices (mainly percussion) to a PC with low latency. Vince is looking for people to fund the device using the popular Kickstarter service. By pledging certain amounts, you can get a range of goodies, from stickets,… Read More »Mandala Synapse looking for a kick
In news just at hand, it appears Danny is selling some black Sacred Geometry pillows via his store at dannycarey.org: Pillow comes in TWO SIZES and contains a colorful reproduction of Danny’s talismanic pantacle board. Can be used as an ornamental pillow for the home, or as a cushion for drummer’s stools. With its esoteric symbols and alchemical motto, makes a unique gift for all fans of Danny and Tool.… Read More »Danny sells Sacred Geometry pillows!
cultiv8420 sent me a email this morning with a video featuring Danny playing drums for British reggae band Steel Pulse at their recent show at the Canyon Club in LA. Not the greatest of recordings, but it’s interesting to see Danny drumming outside of his usual genre:
Perhaps not the new album update all of us are expecting, but Volto! recently fed us some details on their new release, hopefully out there in next couple of months. Over the weekend they posted: the new album’s vinyl master discs were just cut today @ Bernie Grundman Mastering Studios, so it’s coming down the home stretch…. soon friendsupreme, very soon! ♥ And the over night the back cover of… Read More »Volto! new album update
There’s another Mandala feature video with Danny going about at the moment, which features Danny speaking about how he works these devices into his music: Enjoy!
The Children of Saturn podcast from the other day is now online, and can be downloaded here. There’s some great music played right the way through, but for people with less time on their hands, the Volto! track is at the 60 minute mark, and Danny talks briefly about Tool right at the end.
It was at short notice, but Danny was the guest on today’s Children of Saturn radio show, which I was lucky enough to hear most of today. The show has been on a break for a couple of months, but started up again this morning and should be back to normal, hopefully with some interesting guests in the coming weeks. Danny played a range of cool tunes, and spoke about… Read More »Danny’s guest spot on Children of Saturn
As hinted at on a Reddit post I was reading, Pigmy Love Circus (with Danny on drums in case you’ve forgotten!) are coming out of their drug induced coma and doing a gig in Los Angeles in August, and after a bit of searching I managed to come across this post for the gig: The gig is happening at the Dragonfly in Los Angeles on Saturday the 4th of August.… Read More »Pigmy Love Circus gig August 4 @ the Dragonfly, LA
A couple of Danny related items have crossed my desk over the last couple of days. Firstly it appears Danny will be playing drums with fellow Volto! member John Ziegler in his band Bubbatron. According to the post on Toolband: On FRIDAY, JULY 6, DANNY will perform with BUBBATRON (JOHN ZIEGLER, SCOTT KINSEY & JIMMY EARL) also at the BAKED POTATO (3787 Cahuenga Blvd., West, Studio City, Ca. 91604).
