Welcome, Friends of Profunk!

Simplify!

No more sundry email lists, no more customizing text, no cutting and pasting to send just the right message to the right person. It's all moving too fast anymore, and yet it's more important than ever to communicate! I'm inviting everyone I know to drop in and read the latest news, www.profunkmusic.com!

This is your friend, Don Baraka, promoting my music activities, sharing my world view - and you can opt-in - I won't be bugging you any more with those incessant emails! (Let me know if you'd like to be reminded of updates.) email profunk@sbcglobal.net

I'm on a mission - think "Blues Brothers" if you like - it's all about the thing we called "soul music." Ya gotta believe in every note. It's like method acting. Being real about one's art leads to integrity, and respects the audience. Don't wanta waste your time!

We all have full schedules. I like to spend 4 hours a day in the practice studio, at least 5 days a week. And, if possible, 6 hours a night creating. I mean: writing, composing music, recording MIDI tracks, blogging, learning to program my own web site. Through the creative process I want to highlight our human need for love, compassion, understanding, peace, culture, civilization!

Never before in history has the individual had access to such constructive power, literally at one's fingertips. The power of technology, the Internet, low cost electronic hardware, wow! I'm obsessed with using these tools for good - positivity - no negativism. It's way too easy to criticize and destroy, so let's work on the building!
