Found a interesting sounding indian instrument via the computer world and strummed out chords on my lil midi guitar. Added some percussion, strings and a flute.

The single coil sound of my new used PRS guitar just got me in the funk. Had this partial riff on a Sony walkman from 10 years ago, decided to fill it out a little.
Summer Sun
Sitting in the summer sun
The heat warms the soul
Sitting reminiscing
Got no particular place go

The motion of the birds and bees
Is like heaven to me

New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…

To why he was feeling so down inside…
Holy moses! That is some grungy ass guitar playin! Sounds like a acoustic with some distortion! I can hear that whack and the metallic sound...cool sound! Lead reminds of Slash from GnR and the vocals are nasty good. Party On!

12 String? Very nice. *This Time Around* has a good feel to it. You got a winner here James!
I like this one too, it has an odd, frantic, 'wide' feeling to it. I picture a rider on an open plain in some fantasy movie.

What a beauty that is. I dont know the Elvis catalog to well but that vocal captured his spirit. I dig the panning guitar effect too.
