composed of video I took both on the way into New York City on NJTransit and from Penn Station to Coney Island. again, quality is fucked from the web transfer, but you should get the idea. enjoy!

a year on the american highway
additions and revisions
welcome to daniel's roadsongs blog. this was a record of a year-long cross-country roadtrip in which I recorded lots of sounds, wrote some music, and tried to figure out how to shower in a van. since returning in the spring of 2008, I've deleted a lot of the original posts (and some of the links no longer work), but I'm keeping the rest of blog up for archival purposes. if you want to scope out what I've been up to since 2008, check out my current website at danielhhawkins.com. enjoy!

about me
- HighwayLion
- I'm spending a year living out of a van and traveling the country spontaneously, recording noise and writing music that uses that noise. this blog contains some of the music as well as lots of prose recording my travels, along with whatever else I damn well please. enjoy, and happy trails!
