A not-so-terrible groove kinda falls flat. I've never said this before, and I doubt I'll ever say this again, but maybe the melody should have been written higher? I don't think a key change would do it, just a melody that sits a little higher…

I kinda like this one. The melody in the hook is kinda fun, and having the guitar play a melody of its own was something fun that I don't do often. The lyrics are stream of conscious garbage, meaning they are probably about the idiot in the…

I may need to remix this. I ended up mixing it at very low volume with an ancient pair of Apple ear pods. It might sound like cow dung for all I know.
I like this. It's kinda funky and it was fun to play. I like how I ended up with harmony…

Not the worst song I've ever pieced together, but far from the best. I'll file this one under: Meh.

Another in an endless string of recordings that would have been saved by a competent singer. Maybe. I like the individual pieces of this song, but I don't think I like the song as a whole. Okay... maybe I don't like the chorus at all. I don…

This is a love song for Idaho. Funny thing is I've never even been to Idaho, but I dreamed the chorus and the happy little riff some years ago, and it's stuck with me ever since. So, I filled it in with some verses and an outro that capture the…

I believe the year was 1981. My friend Tim Brown and I recorded a bunch of music. Since I played all of the instruments(except the lead guitar parts:which Tim played) and sang all of the parts on this song: I believe I still have some recall…

Hello Hello The original of this song was recorded in 1981 Using my Permanent Adolescent technique of drums first. No click, no follow along to other instruments. Just the drums and the musical arrangement in my head. I joined a band in 1984…

What’s on your mind
Are you losing confidence
Someone’s been unkind
And caring becomes a consequence

The Sun will shine your way
Look for a reason to smile
And watch the clouds drift away
Feeling like you…

lap steel frenzy over a tape loop. For Sound-In Event No Formula

A couple of unusual things with this one. There's an overdrive pedal in there that I've never used before. Meaning, I had never even plugged it in before. I bought it like six months ago and it sat on my dresser just waiting for me to play…

I'm really tired right now so this mix might sound awful and I won't know. Also, 50/90 might be hitting a snag in that I have a bit of an injury to my left hand. It's not getting better and while recording the leads on this puppy it was affecting…

Improv on clarinet, playing on some ideas that came from pieces currently being worked on by some members of the Toronto Improvisor's Orchestra. As the title implies, this is shorter than it would've been due to an interruption by a Facebook call…

I don't like the rhythm guitars on this one. I had both pickups on and now I wish I just had the bridge pickup. It would have been toppier and less muddy.
Finally a song that is about something specific, even if it doesn't make much sense…

Playing a pair of cracked cymbals with a soft vibes mallet. Different approaches each time (unaltered and mallet head, small metal tin lids to alter sound, playing using mallet handle). Only post alteration is some noise reduction.

I acquired some amazing 80s synth plug-ins for this one - the Prophet 5, ARP2600 and Yamaha DX-7 are all over this track.
