The Evil Ice-cream Truck tune is featured in the Deadly Grounds Coffee commercial. You can see it on YouTube or here:

Names of my songs or albums do not mean anything whatsoever. Classical composers got it easy: Symphony #3, Sonata #17, Adagio for Strings, etc. It’s totally generic and does not imply any particular subject or literary reference. Coming up with a meaningful name requires a language talent, which I do not have. And the words somehow have to relate to music - this I simply do not know how to do. So I rely on random words generated by Band-in-a-Box program.

Coming up with a project name took a good year of brain twisting. If I was familiar with George Carlin’s list at the time, I could have picked one of his. It takes a professional to come with something good, you know. So, here it is:

Finally, after 4 years of on and off laboring, the “Rainbow Darkly” is out. Certainly, Dave Smith’s Poly Evolver influenced me a lot, you can hear it on more songs here than I care to admit.

This year Santa brought me a Poly Evolver! Wow! This is the weirdest synth I have and it rocks! I had a lovely e-mail interchange with The Man himself, i.e., Dave Smith and it allowed me to produce a Sonar instrument file for this box. Thanks again, Mr. Smith!
