Q: Your latest album "Invisible Walls" is now available. What would you like to tell us about the album?

MM: The invisible Wall that is and if you can hear it for awhile it's not so transparent after all. It's a story of a painter who at the risk of his own artwork climbs into his canvas and gets lost with his past and his present and can't find his way back out. Expressionism at it's heart.

Q: How can a person purchase a copy of the album?

MM: At CDBABY.COM.

Q: What are some of your favorite tracks off the album?

MM: It's a daily flavor, there's a few in there that always taste good. This week it's Starboy, No Sign of Life and the hidden track "Life Support On Xmas."

Q: In your quotes, you say that 'Starboy' is a modern stance on the Adult Entertainment Industry. Can you elaborate on this?

MM: Picture porn in space, or Ziggy Stardust if he had checked his bags and took on the adult network career.

Q: How difficult is it to produce an album by yourself?

MM: Sometimes as simple as Honey and Tea other times much more Meatloaf and Lima Beans. You work with what you know and then you stay open for what you don't. Some recipes work, and some you do by trial and error. "Just a pinch of emotion makes the melody go down..."

Q: Do you plan on touring to help promote the album?

MM: I do and am. Check my website soon for dates...

Q: Will there be any Florida dates on your tour?

MM: I have not planned one as of yet but if you know of any places I must play at I'd love to know...

Q: How do you spend a day off when touring?

MM: Usually finding out the history of the place I'm in. I'm fascinated by what existed before to form what it is that I am standing in today.

Q: What was the reason for starting your own publishing company?

MM: To have a library soundtrack of the catalog of my life.

Q: You've had several songs pick up and used by daytime television. Can
you tell us a few of those songs and what programs were they used on?

MM: My previous album Utopia got picked up and played on that wild and crazy 'Passions' soap opera.

Q: How old were you when you wrote your first song?

MM: I think 3 and it was probably about dancing ketchup and mustard.

Q: Did you ever record the song?

M: I grew up...well not fully

Q: How supportive was your family when you told them you wanted to be a musician?

MM: They always encouraged the artist in me, even when I doubted they made me feel like the best I could be. I believe a lot of my certainty stems from their help and support.

Q: If you weren't a musician what would you be?

MM: Probably a sonic architect, recording engineer. I'm fascinated by music technology even when I don't understand it all.

Q: What advice would you give a young musician attempting to break into
the business?

MM: Develop yourself and your heart and listen to the little knocks on the
door, the answers don't always come at once but patience and desire will invite it.

Q: If you were given the power to do one thing to make the world a better place to live in what would that one thing be?

MM: No one has all the power in the world and sometimes the little things are the most effective. A simple song could last more than hundreds of years.

Q: You have a really cool website. Who designed it?

MM: Strahil Hadzhiev, who is amazing with flash and gave me everything and more I could ask for.

Q: Is there anything you would like to say to your fans who may read this Interview?

Q: "The grapefruit is winning!"

Q: Thank you for your time Michael, I wish you much success.

MM: Your welcome, wishes and waves back to you as well.
