This started as a simple piano piece from Osckilo, I took that as a beginning point and added the rest (synth, guitar, drums from Boss microBR), turning it into a prog-rock instrumental.

I really wish it was a proper studio! I have some mattress stuff stapled to my wall for sound proofing and Im using a reflexion filter for the vocals and everything else is direct to logic. The Reflexion filter really helps for cutting out ambient noise but its a pain to deal with because its really heavy for the mic stand. I suppose when I move to a house with a basement I can have a real studio and until then I have to keep telling the wife and the dogs to go to another room!

Bwahaha... sweet silliness. I enjoyed the poke-fun-at-thyself style humor, and a catchy song to boot. Thanks for listening to my stuff too (just wait until you stumble upon my "Grapefruit Song", speaking of offbeat humor.)
ttfn, Drakonis.

Requires work. Would be the first thing to say.. not least the bloody clipping. Just wanted to post something to prove im not dead.
The song is inspired by my counselor kindly allowing me to leave my guilt with her last time i saw her. i told…
Steve and I on a Sunday afternoon jam. haven't changed it a lick. Minimally processed it. I liked the openess of it, so I left it alone. Went to Crater Lake, and found this songs home. Played it to the stars the moon and the waters, as the moon…
I couldn't talk for a while afterwards and I felt like a moron after listening to my vocals, but it had to be done :) So no laffin'!
Our attempt to be on the roof of Abbey Road Studios if only for a moment!
The Lineup:
Guitars: gtalfsen
Piano…
drip by drip..
I did the guitar and bass tracks first, then procured my 10 year olds cello for the main bass line :) I also tried my luck playing cello with a bow on this track- which was a new experience.
The trumpet and violin bits are played…
Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…
Stealin' Pumpkins off the vine...
Such good fun I do it all the time.
Single Gon Bops conga track miced for heavy bass. And 2 tracks of cow bell, of course.
4/4 200bpm
So Jim of "Movement to Contact" asked me a couple of weeks ago to send him something...
I had no idea how ridiculously good the final result would come out.
KL: Vocals, lyrics, left side rhythm guitar and picking
MTC: Lead guitar, bass…
I swore that I would NEVER upload this. Was having a bad day trying to loop "nice" acoustic guitar sounds and got frustrated so grabbed my Taylor and plugged it into a cheesy Effects box and straight into the looper. Started twiddling knobs and…
But you see, its experiments like this that are so flipping deadly and fun to listen to. More I say, more. This is like painting with sound, you are making pictures in my brain with this one. Very worthy experiment.
It's not unusual to chase your girl around with a dull axe, is it? Just kidding - This was 60 tracks and almost a year to finish. I had some help:
Guitars: Tony W
Fadeout Solo: Gnasty
Acoustic/Rhythm Guitars: Me
Phone Message: Tony W &…

Where did this one come from? Found out behind the barn. Thats great harmonies. Hypnotic, dense, spook bro, real spook. This is very deadly Mark. Wild stuff.
What can I say? well, thanks for the comments! It still amzes me that my solitary style (when the whole song is me myself and I) makes it over to you all. And that you "get" what I try to do in the arranging, that it's ok to emphasize the mood…

Its like going to an all you can eat smorg and stuffing myself, thats how I feel about your rhythms, I can't get enough of that good stuff.
Nice, very nice indeed.
Very emotional piece, sounds wonderful.
But you see, its experiments like this that are so flipping deadly and fun to listen to. More I say, more. This is like painting with sound, you are making pictures in my brain with this one. Very worthy experiment.

Where did this one come from? Found out behind the barn. Thats great harmonies. Hypnotic, dense, spook bro, real spook. This is very deadly Mark. Wild stuff.
