I want to go back to the bush
Way way out west
Down by a creek in a valley
As summer is fading is best
The creek full to overflowing
Every year the same
The trees a living canopy
Shelter from the winters rain
The cattle scattered across…

Blistered wings and broken things
Those elements that divide
How the mighty have fallen
Condemned by worthless pride

This is what it sounds like when every note has its own wah pedal...
The lower and higher harmonics come in first, with the inside ones filling in, harmonic by harmonic every 20ms. The result is a very human-ish Yaw sound on low notes (check…

This one is okay. It feels a little too... mathy? Is that a thing? I feel like maybe there needs to be more going on in the chorus, but it has three part vocal harmony so there's that. Subconsciously the whole point of this…

50/90 Challenge song number five of 50.
I feel like most of what I am coming up with right now is overly simplistic. Is that a conscious thing or not? I don't know. This one has the benefit of being a blues in A minor in 3/4 time. A waltzing…

5090 song number nine out of 50.
Lots of gimmicks here. Guitarmonies. Drum solo. Four part vocal harmonies singing a minor seventh chord with tons of effects and buried in the mix. Yup, all the standbyes.

I am playing the bass part at Mass so I though recording the bass and melody was a good way to brush up. Thanks to COVID its been a while. Yeah, some mistakes. But it never does me good to over do it.

Do the crime and do the time

Straight and up the chimney
Keep the beat…

I am Calm and smart
I wonder at Science
I Howl at the moon

I laugh out loud

It's hard to define perfection
