A pair of DTMF tones, copied & pasted in reverse, stretched 100 times, tripled, one of the copies pitch shifted, another time shifted, then run through several overdrive units and mixed back together.

This is a distorted delay attempt at some sort of rock/pop. no vocals, just cant seem to find a melody that fits.
Uploaded
This is a fun little formulaic number. I actually enjoy this one, I may head primarily in this direction.

another heavy beat, industrial/electronic inpired...again, I just had something to say and needed a medium, not really a direction I want to go in though

Not 'Two Fingers' to the establishment, but getting maximum effect from minimum effort. two fingers on the left hand do all the running around whilst all other digits just 'keep fort'. Made sense to me G:)

Been grinding away on this one for several months, and finally got it into sharable form. It's a bit of a departure for me, as I finally remembered I own an acoustic guitar, and busted it out for some mic recording.
