Brent Billock's Tumblr
I'm Brent. I do Internet marketing and run a stock picking community website. My job and heart are still in Chicago, but I'm telecommuting from Cincinnati.
I do a little longform blogging at billock.net and I tweet as @BrentBillock.
I really like motorcycles, guitars, and good design.

Merry Christmas everybody!
It’s a single from my long awaited Christmas Album, done at last.
Ok, so it’s a 4-song Christmas EP, but it’s done, and I’m pressing a dozen of them and handing them out to friends and family. I set this goal about 10 months ago and had many doubts about whether I’d actually ship anything.
I thought a Christmas Album would give me the best chance of teaching myself how to use Garageband to record, mix and produce, without worrying too much about being perfect or artistically precious with it.
It’s already led to one paid gig making original music, so I’m really glad I followed through, and I hope you enjoy this example of the final product.
NYIOP - New York International Opera Auditions
I haven’t sung professionally for quite a while now, but I’m still on the NYIOP mailing list, giving me a constant reminder of some of the worst things about a career in the performing arts.
Can you imagine any other industry charging its applicants for an interview?
Yet, the NYIOP proudly trumpets the discount it’s offering this year. It will cost you “only” $300 to go sing for the casting directors who attend.

This only has 31 listens so far at SoundCloud.
Internet, I’m disappointed in you. Don’t you know beautiful songwriting and brilliant vocals when you hear them?

It’s my first finished work of original music!
I’ll admit, hip hop is not my most natural genre, but it works for this commercial piece for a freelance client. I wrote the music for this video, and recorded guitar, keys, three-part violin and rap (yes, rap!). Then I added some motion graphics to the footage they gave me and edited the whole thing together.
I’d love to do more of these, so any YouTube Likes, reblogs or tweets you can throw at this video might help me get the client enthused about that idea. Thanks!

Didn’t know Radiohead could be catty. But I like it.
