Funding Unsuccessful
This project reached the deadline without achieving its funding goal on November 8, 2009.
Pledge $10 or more Pledge $10 or more
"Download" -Get a download copy of Electronola when it's released.
Pledge $20 or more Pledge $20 or more
"CD" -Get your very own copy of Electronola on CD and get a download of "The Madd Wikkid - Classics", a collection of some of my earlier works.
Pledge $30 or more Pledge $30 or more
"Merci Beaucoup" -Get the Electronola CD, and a appreciative thank you call from yours truly. We can chat about the making of my record, life in New Orleans, cooking gumbo, or funny tour stories, or music in general, or travel, or whatever. You also get a download of "Classics".
Pledge $50 or more Pledge $50 or more
"Phone Phreak" - You send me a recording of your normal voicemail greeting, I'll tweak it, freak it, and glitch it out & send it back OR you can send me a message that you want to leave on a friend's voicemail and I'll tweak and freak that and send it back. It'll still be intelligible, but the person on the other end might think they're having a flashback. I've done this for a couple of friends, and it's always been a big hit. It's fun and really catches people off guard. Of course, you also get the Electronola CD and a download of "Classics".
Pledge $75 or more Pledge $75 or more
"Telephone Serenade" -Get the Electronola CD -plus- a phone call from me where I'll perform a song for you on piano. I can either serenade you directly, or you can have me serenade someone else on your behalf: I could call your friend with a birthday song, play a love song for your date, or something else along those lines. You also get a download of "Classics"
Pledge $100 or more Pledge $100 or more
"Serenade Phreak" - You get the "Telephone Serenade", the "Phone Phreak" voice mail, and of course the Electronola CD and a download of "Classics".
Pledge $150 or more Pledge $150 or more
"Piano It Up" -You send me one of your tunes, we talk about the vibe and direction you want for it, then I record some tasty piano parts for it (with a few variations so you have options) and send it back to you. I recommend that you let me throw down some New Orleans flavored stuff on it, but I'm down for whatever. You also get the Electronola CD & a download of "Classics".
Pledge $200 or more Pledge $200 or more
"Name That Tune" - One of the tracks for this record is still unnamed. I'll let you hear it, and you can name this anything within reason (nothing mean, and nothing that I wouldn't want to say in front of my grandmother or my godchild). Name it "Joe + Jenn BFF" or "Rockstar Jimmy Was Here" or "In Memory of my dog, Spot" or "Mic6helle is the World Champion Thumbwrestler" or whatever else you'd like (within reason, subject to my approval, but I'll be very lenient for must stuff). You also get the Electronola CD and a download of "Classics".

I sculpt data that scrambles electrons that excite magnets that move speakers that ripple the air that tickles your eardrum that tantalizes your brain that shakes your bum. Simply put, I'm a music producer and recording engineer. I work with some of New Orleans' favorite acts, most notably the Preservation Hall Jazz Band.
Among the better known performers I've recorded are Tom Waits, Pete Seeger, Lenny Kravitz, Del McCoury, Jim James, Paolo Nutini, Mos Def, and Buddy Miller.
In the electronic music world I've worked with King Britt, Pretty Lights, and I mixed several tracks on the upcoming JJ Doom (Jneiro Jarel & MF Doom) release.
In addition to my studio engineering, I produce and perform electronic music as The Madd Wikkid, and have been known to play piano/keyboards around New Orleans and Japan. I also sometimes tour as a live sound engineer.
