Charming the Moroccan Wave
by Marlise Kast
posted 2006-08-23

For centuries Morocco has been attracting poets, artists and adventurous travelers in search of exotic exploration. Despite this surge of discovery, Morocco’s finest treasure has somehow remained a mystery. The 3,000 kilometers of unsurfed terrain riddled with hollow right-hand barrels is anything but a myth. Overshadowed by snake charmers, veiled Moroccan women, and medieval labyrinth medinas, these beckoning waves are witnessed only by those who dare to paddle into the magic…

Some folks who are familiar with my work, will know that I usually travel to Australia each and every year, just around the same time that the pro tour is also there, but I generally give the tour a wide birth in preference for quite the opposite actually. Read on and I’ll explain;...

I’m strolling along the beach in front of Marriott’s Waiohai resort at Poipu, when I look up and see a local sitting there playing a guitar. Being a guitar player myself, I have to stop and listen. ‘I can never pass up the opportunity to listen to live music, no matter what kind.’ Anyway, he’s playing a real good slack-key style and using some very interesting open tunings…

PHONOSS - Dead Slow for Hell
by Daniel Gannaway
posted 2006-02-16

When I interviewed Phonoss in April of last year for ProMusicNews I predicted the awakening of a prodigious and newly evolving solo talent. Inside of a year, and here he is delivering Dead Slow for Hell, his rocking sophomore effort. DS4H clocks in at just over 24 minutes and is chock full of short, chugging rock songs with a dirty, indie bent. Darker and grittier than the more acoustic indie/folk/rock of debut ELIMINATOR, DS4H is packed with huge singable chorus/bridge combinations, and showcases an artist pushing his creative boundaries to great success. Without further adieu, time for a quick catch up with Phonoss…

posted 2006-01-15

“Written and recorded in Hawaii and New Zealand, SUMMER STORM – Daniel’s sixth solo outing – references laidback island life with the ukulele’s nylon strings, while wrapping it up in the kind of dynamic folk/indie-rock/electronic feel.”

Here is an interview with Daniel as he discusses this amazing new release with us…

El Salvador: Dreams and Nightmares

It was June and I was, again, sitting at the Basilone exit in San Clemente, watching my beloved Lowers perform with northwest wind swell 2-3 feet. It was a sad sight really. As most Southern Californians know, this time of year could be horrific in terms of weather and surf. The “gloom” (as most know it) had been cast over the coast. It may be 110 degrees in Temecula right now, but was a misty 60 here-ugly as ugly gets…
