heavynuggets is the abstract art and design home of John Engelman. It’s also so much more. In addition to years of work as an abstract artist, and doing graphic design for a variety of clients on a whole host of projects ranging from t-shirts to tour programs, he is also one of the co-founders of MIDWESTpeeps, a Midwestern America based, music focused streetwear brand, and is also the host of sodagiant, the Internet’s Soft Drink Review Show, now entering it’s 11th year of occasional production.
Remember how I said I quite being in a band years ago in my previous post? That doesn't mean I don't still make music. Lately I've taken to using GarageBand to help get my ideas into what you could call a "song" and I've presented a couple here. I'll post more soon I'm sure, but for now here's a taste. Enjoy!
PS- I'm aware they have no cover art and it's just a picture of me. I'm sure I'll be changing that soon enough.
The usual Tortoise / Explosions In The Sky inspired fare.
Totally inspired by the Grand Theft Auto soundtrack and Tangerine Dream, as well as my usual influence of Tortoise and Explosions In The Sky. It sounds like none of these things, really, but I like it.
