ANIME, SHENMUE, WEDDINGS, And WORK! Andy’s awesome last couple of weeks!!! PART 1

Alright everybody, I’m back and ready to go! It’s been awhile, almost three weeks since I last updated.  In the last three weeks, I drove to Toronto for an Anime Convention from May 22-24th, spent the May 25th – June 2nd in Scranton Pennsylvania, came back to Rochester, then again hit the road on the 5th-7th to go to a wedding in Scranton, Ohio. After all of that, I just spent the last week relaxing and working. Now that I’m back and feeling better, I want to tell you all a little about my adventures over these few weeks.

Sorry I have not posted!

Hey everyone, I would like to appologize for my absence, it’s because I’ve been working on my new album. Its not quite done yet and Media Play has locked me up on releasing it untill the winter season. However, keep your eyes out at the stores for it! 

I’ve also been tied up doing some traveling and advertising for it! I have some great stories of adventure, and some great pics to share with everyone!

Continue?’s Featured Artist: docjazz4

Hey everyone, it’s that time of the week again, time for “Continue?’s Featured Artist!”

Last week, I spoke about a great violinist named Ben Chan, who inbetween playing professionaly and teaching, finds time to created YouTube videos of himself playing different videogame music.  If you think back to that article (click here to read it), the last video I showed was a video that was a collaboration of three different artists: Lypurr, BenChan, and a guy named docjazz4, well this week, it is docjazz4’s turn to be in the limelight!

Let us all travel back to the year 1998, back when Billy C was getting head in the oval office, Google was founded, boys all across America learned to BE A MAN with the help of Mulan, and two video games systmes where on the list of every child. One was the first succesfull CD based home videogame system, the Play Station, the other, the first succesfull 64-bit system, with it’s crazy baterang like controller, the N-64. That year, Nintendo released what many consider to be one of, if not the, best game ever. 

What was that game you ask? Well none other than

“The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time”

That game introduced children to a bizare little instrument, the ocarina. The ocarina is one of the oldest instruments in existence and it is also one of the easiest instruments to play. In ‘99, a young boy named Dave purchased an ocarina and began learning how to play. Fast foward to August of 2006, Dave joins YouTube under the name docjazz4, and in December of that year, he releases his first video, seen here.

That is docjazz4 and he is playing the Song of Time from that fateful game. Since then, docjazz4 or should I say Dave, has released over 100 videos and has played songs from Zelda to Halo. In addition to his large collection of videos, Dave owns around 20 ocarinas, ranging from simple 4-holed pendents to 4 chambered ocarinas (a multi chambered Ocarina allows for a wider range of notes to be played).

Since Dave began posting videos, he has become quite the hit on YouTube, having over 25,000 subscribers!

Check out more of Dave’s videos after the break!
