This past Sunday he opened his show with JDT’s cover of “Life on Mars” and gave us a nice shout out.  Thanks Jarvis!</p> <p>Check out his show <a title="here" target="_blank" href="http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00ptsjd">here</a>.     <img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltkiwjny6j1r0r32f.jpg"/></p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11861248339http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11861248339Mon, 24 Oct 2011 13:37:57 +0200<img src="http://28.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltkijec01X1r34a4co1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Vespa envy</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11861083690http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11861083690Mon, 24 Oct 2011 13:28:26 +0200<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt9d52hQiK1r34a4co1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt9d52hQiK1r34a4co3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt9d52hQiK1r34a4co4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt9d52hQiK1r34a4co2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>My good friend Andrew Todd was decorated Chevalier des Arts et Lettres this past weekend (French knighthood) and to celebrate, he organized a concert at a secret concert hall inside the Romanian embassy.  I was asked to provide a couple of my tunes to the set, which worked great alongside a live light and string installation.  All topped off by a set closer with Daniel Humair.  A very special evening.</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11609046838http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11609046838Tue, 18 Oct 2011 12:58:00 +0200<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt6722xcXB1r34a4co1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Soundcheck at Romanian Embassy</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11531891351http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11531891351Sun, 16 Oct 2011 19:54:02 +0200<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lt01y0T9fE1r34a4co1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Afternoon commute</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11391168515http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11391168515Thu, 13 Oct 2011 12:18:00 +0200<p>As a member of the Brainchildren, I played piano and Rhodes on the new Elizabeth! record.

I had a great time working with Jason Schwartzman, who provided the runway music, and Spike Jonze, who was filming a documentary for the label. Thanks to all involved for such a collaborative and super creative experience! (And thanks for giving me a reason to get my pedalboard up and running again). </p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsjci9f5v11r0r32f.jpg"/></p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsjcjqIsM11r0r32f.jpg"/></p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsjcktpZWi1r0r32f.jpg"/></p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsjclksBFf1r0r32f.jpg"/></p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsjcn0Kc8E1r0r32f.jpg"/></p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11016650606http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/11016650606Tue, 04 Oct 2011 11:49:00 +0200opening ceremony,kenzoparis fashion weekss 2012spike jonzejason schwartzman<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lryz93o9Bx1r34a4co1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Just before I left for Paris, my good friend <a target="_blank" href="http://michaelidov.com/">Michael Idov</a> gave a ring and had me record some piano parts for his new project,<a target="_blank" href="http://foto.bandcamp.com/"> Friends of the Oval</a>.  Michael and I met in 2005 when I joined his band Spielerfrau.  Since then he’s been making waves as a contributing editor at <strong>New York Magazine</strong> and as the author of <em>Ground Up</em>.  This side project sounds awesome!</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10552364163http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10552364163Fri, 23 Sep 2011 11:48:00 +0200friends of the ovalmichael idovny magazinedavid masonground upspielerfrau<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lryyq52mE51r34a4co1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lryyq52mE51r34a4co2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lryyq52mE51r34a4co3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Unearthed some photos from the JDT shoot with <a target="_blank" href="http://edition.cnn.com/2011/08/20/living/film-not-dead-yet/index.html">Colin Hough Trapp</a>.  This was fun, especially that the concept required us to be drinking whiskey.</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10552239962http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10552239962Fri, 23 Sep 2011 11:37:00 +0200<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrvocoqbWy1r34a4co1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>The guys at DadWagon interviewed me about life abroad, setting up PSRS Paris, differences between the two cultures and what I think of “alterna-dads.”  It was a good time…</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10481406071http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10481406071Wed, 21 Sep 2011 17:00:00 +0200<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/5Kw0IkrJL94?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10407386880http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10407386880Mon, 19 Sep 2011 19:39:37 +0200<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/25/magazine/25fob-consumed-t.html">Digital vs. Analog</a>: <p>I’m still waiting for the Roland Juno app!</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10123788911http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10123788911Mon, 12 Sep 2011 14:28:24 +0200<img src="http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrdfxgmHsO1r34a4co1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>Afternoon commute</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10091080411http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10091080411Sun, 11 Sep 2011 20:41:40 +0200<embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://assets.tumblr.com/swf/audio_player_black.swf?audio_file=http://www.tumblr.com/audio_file/10077905101/tumblr_lrcwlhfuB31r34a4c&color=FFFFFF" height="27" width="207" quality="best" wmode="opaque"></embed><br/><br/><p>Having some fun in the home studio.  Inspiration courtesy of David Byrne’s self-conducted interview.</p> <p>“Heaven” by Talking Heads</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10077905101http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10077905101Sun, 11 Sep 2011 13:44:05 +0200<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lrcs3lxaHF1r34a4co1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Brooklyn 2010</p>http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10076368880http://www.jasondomnarski.com/post/10076368880Sun, 11 Sep 2011 12:06:00 +0200<a href="http://bears-eat-beats.net/?p=2499">JDT Track Review at Bears Eat Beats</a>: <p>Just stumbled on this review of the JDT track “Brought Up On Charges” from our Vices EP.
