This one didn't really get the arrangement or mix is deserved. One more week to go.
Once in a while, I just like to waste my time
I won’t spend every day towing someone’s line
So if you see me and you want to stop and chat
Don’t be discouraged…
Week 52
This is my last song of the week from 2022! I arranged this one for my brother. He wrote the lyrics and basic melody. It's straight-up rockabilly.

Did a studio challenge this week from Joe Gilder to try to recreate an entire song from scratch, breaking it down and recording and producing everything. This could be considered a cover tune of "Something for the Pain" by She Drew the Gun. I…

2022 Song of the Week - Week 7
This is a little better effort. I might come back to this one and make the transitions to and from the break a lot cooler.
Put together a quick one this week. Had a section of guitar and bass that I liked almost all week, and dropped most of it at the last second, then inspiration took over. Had some lyrics ready to go.
Not much time this week. But I did manage to get something kind of cool. I also used zero third-party plugins. If you work in Logic Pro and you want to play with this project - go get it: https://www.mediafire.com/file/9hb74o43b9ox5rk/Vampires_Don…
2022 Song of the Week - Week 7
This is a little better effort. I might come back to this one and make the transitions to and from the break a lot cooler.
The start of a song about my first dog, Jack, who was a rescue. When he came to us he'd had many owners, some likely good, some most definitely very bad. He'd been at death's door as a starving dog, almost freezing to death in a harsh winter…
I'll Tell Me Ma is a folk song in the Irish tradition. I recorded it with acoustic instruments, multiple vocal tracks, and spoons for the main percussion, to give it that kitchen party feel!
I did it in the key of C. Not exactly normal, but…
I'm sick of those wise guys that lead us ....
Wise Guys
I tell you I want something I need it right now
Something to take me whey up above the clouds
I want to get high I want to learn how to fly
So I can get away from all these wise guys…
Trying out a new strat: not letting myself work on details on the computer until the skeleton of the song is complete. Result is a lot of variety in songwriting, but a bit rougher arrangement/mix.

The basic track was constructed several years ago with Native Instruments FM8 with an M-Audio MIDI controller. More recently I added distorted guitar sounds and theremin samples using Ableton Live 10.
