For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…

Now with more awesomeness! Thank you to This Wretched Vessel Lead vocalist for adding in some Gang vocals to beef up the chorus. Also borrowing their percussionist for some tambourine to give the song some extra pop!
You know I can’t think…

Another one from the archives! Collab with glu from 2009 - I took his original guitar track and added vocals, then he remixed and made about four more versions, but this is my fave.

A little celestial inspiration for this song.... I started it and Greg and Mark helped me finish it and then record around my kitchen table. Feel free to howl if you like it!

Cool envelope I found and tweaked over two oscillators being initialized with random frequencies 0-1400 hz. Built two loops into the patch and it's soup! Credit inspiration from Paris Young with reminding me about PD's randomizer object!

Bringing back a song from 2011 with a new twist. The song now has drums, bass, and an orchestral backend. This is hopefully part of a larger collection of me reworking older songs with orchestration.
Many thanks to Brian of A Beautiful Scene…

This is my first complete song and it still needs lots of polishing. There are a few timing issues I need to resolve and some gaps to put in and omit. I also want to re-record my chorus vocal... but for the sake of getting something submitted…

A collaboration with singer/songwriter Sinéad McCarthy. It is still a work in progress and we are just starting to work on the mix. If anyone would like to give some comments/ideas on how the mix is working that would be great. Thanks

This one makes me really happy. Soothing and a little snappy. Guitar, bass, lyre, bongo, bodhran (brush), vocals.
Lyrics:
Life is a roller coaster
Just turn on the toaster
I know you're up and down
Just make a happy sound

Not bad. I like the phaser on the guitars in the A section, and I like the wah on the rhythm near the end. That wash of noise underneath is actually a guitar solo that was sort of hiding the slow wah effect so I…

A slightly odd structure, led by the lyrics, which has a very different intro verse the chords of which are not then repeated though the song.
Seems to work though.
As ever with @geoff61 the lyrics needed minimal…

Funny thing about this tune is the first draft was an entirely different animal. This version formed toward the end of the round and came together in 5 days.
This one actually placed first.
