Steven welcomes you to the world of WMS and all that is Zen Rock Records. The instrumental music ( aka #ZenRock ) presented on this channel comes from a place of deep spiritual inspiration. It is meant to be a healing art that will take the listener on a purposeful journey of joy and discovery. I believe my playing is a gift and is meant to be shared with those that are open to a higher awarenesses of being and are seeking peace for themselves and the world.

I just recently acquired an Ibanez PM200 (used) — traditional in every sense— even kept this one in standard instead of NST tuning. It’s going to be a fun year learning the “normal” guitar tuning — what prompted me? Probably, as it’s my last year at Berklee, I thought it would be a great time. Enjoy your week, Steven

Most artists can’t stop creating— it’s in our blood, our soul….our spirit— it’s not about pleasing others as much as it is in tapping into a deep spiritual place— where the notes, paint brush or pen develops a life of its’ own.
When someone connects with your art…it is really special and an incredible honor. Whether just one individual or more opens their heart to the art you create, it makes the world just a bit smaller and certainly stronger.
Here’s to the artist in all of us,

“Curiosity”, the new track from my trio Milarep’s Cave, is now featured on YouTube ( @MilarepasCave ) — I think subscribers of my channel will really like it.

Funny how I just learned about the YouTube community today — prior to this, I just thought my posts here were just being thrown out to space lol (I also thought lol was lots of luck until my kids corrected me. Well, now that I know folks can respond to these posts, I’ll try to keep posting more regularly!

Finishing my last week of the quarter at Berklee….its been a challenging one with both classes being upper level — Music Law and Copyrights are the two courses I took — I’ll tell you, the music community is rather skeptical about the impact ai is going to have on the industry. I’m not sure how easy my stream of consciousness playing and producing could be duplicated by AI, but I’m sure with the systems getting more data every second…..

As a musician, I feel as though I need to understand technology. As a student at Berklee, it is imperative that a knowledge of AI and its relationship to music is crucial. AI is changing the landscape of music and how it is created and produced. Using Suno, I used my understanding of music to have the program create "Neighbors Say". I'm not monetizing it as I did not sing or play the parts on this song. More of an experiment than anything. Maybe the program could be an aid to work out parts of song at some point. No made up band names or profit seeking here. The last thing I would ever want is for computers to take the place of real musicians. There is something deeply special about playing in a band. The friendships, both musical and personal, make being in a band delightful. So, I personally will never release something for profit that I didn't perform myself or with my band. Much respect, Steven. (this is the same text I used in the description of the song)
