A day in the life of a common cat

I wrote this a week or so ago, and decided to give it a proper "mix" I guess? I'm not great at mixing quite yet, so this is just trying to add some ear candy and make it sound as good as I can!

I'm grateful for balance. Yarrow showed up today in a field and I was reminded of the balance I have to continue to strive for.

Worries Never Win Verse 1: Worries have never solved The things that ache my heart. Pacing the midnight floors, Only pulled me apart. Tried to fix it all alone— But I was sinking fast. Then I heard a still, small voice: “Child, this…

Last of the five-day experiment in intervals. Again, my friend Ebow was acting persnickety, as is its wont (I'm sure I have nothing to do with it), and the result includes some abrasive string rattling. I like the melody of the original recording…

V1: Oh, how did we get here Seems familiar but it’s unclear Did no one take the reigns before we lost control I’d rather say something If it’s better than nothing Wouldn’t you think twice if it saves your soul Chorus: Darlin…

I was in deep at second, my heels in the outfield - full count No one left out on the bases, familiar faces, the heat breaks a cloud Hands red from the clay dirt as I held up my glove to my faaaaaaace It smells just the way I remember, the…

saturdays are for techno

I was reminded again yesterday of a responsibility to the language, to the culture, to ourselves.

To me this is one of my best Tracks.....yet.... :-) The Kick comes from a PlugIn called "Kick Ninja"! What a great PlugIn! Also I'm really starting to hate my AI generated garbage profile pic but alas, I have not a single gram of talent in…

Reg has been reading the papers today and it seems like utter chaos out there since the circus came to town ...... and the world will never be the same again..... Nothing will ever be the same again The circus came to town today…

disintegration loop recorded with voice memo

The screams!! The screams!!

The ebow gods were fickle today. Anyway, here's a melody, copied to a new track, then I raised the original track two steps, and lowered the duplicate track two steps to create a fourth interval. I tried also adding reversed tracks but it was…

patience. practice. review. repeat.

another attempt at short form deep techno a la some of my favorites...

Drums, guitar, bass, Microfreak set to say "Meow" through a bunch of pedals.

We're getting political with this one.

exploring the kinotone ribbons tonight. it is a pedal that emulates magnetic tape and all it's imperfections. here i start what a clean arpeggio and engage ribbons around 20s. throughout, we explore degradation, harmony and rhythm as the loops…

Beat Your Ass Like You're Talking Bout A Little Kid

Changed the approach a bit today: intended to blend a melodic line a third apart, but ughhhh. So, here's an improvised ebow line, copied then reversed, with some harmonics added. Still not satisfied with results, but am happy to have made three…

Latest iteration, trying to corral the trumpets! This tune is for a buddy who is old enough to know better but bought himself a three-wheeler anyway. I thought he needed a road song!

Each demo is getting me closer to where I will eventually be to record the album. Drums are really coming together. The next demo will focus more on the rhythm tones. New cab mic coming... Verse I Morning light, spills on the floor Shadows…

A reflection on sound waves hitting the air around us. What does it do? How do we feel? Reverb pedal and guitar; EP-133 with samples from my bass guitar.

Dance floor drop. C’mon, let’s dance. #REM June 2025

My May 2025 REM (record every month Submission ... toying/Experimenting with different drum and Percussion Sounds/Modules with a bit Ambient Sounds in for good taste

To all of you hitting a musical wall (mine seems to be in my throat), this song has been giving me major issues. I had lyrics and vox but it never sounded convincing. But I love the chord progression so I'm sending it out into the world to maybe…

This song was another SD Compo entry of mine, specifically from round 87 back in 2014. This rendering features a number of tweaks to fix the mix, like adjusting levels, EQ, compression, and adding some spectral processing to smooth out what was…

Music inspired by the 90's, Lyrics inspired by my lament. Made for the REM Challenge May 2025 Thanks to doowcin, Wil, Tony H, Luna Ponderosa, sadcoolgirl and Peggy the Cat for lending their voices.

I've been resting for three days now. Still able to write a few songs, so I'm not complaining! I realized how much I've just been going going going. Universe telling me to take a break in a very big way. Self care, check.

Baba Ibo is an Amazing artist he never stops to amaze his fans with a mind blowing music titled Playboy, this song is a artwork of NNABUIKE TOCHUKWU PAUL a.k.a BABA IBO featuring a friend artist named UKOHA ANSELM TOBECHUKWU a.k.a ANAX DMD. PLAYBOY…

Smoke fills the skies, the ground is breaking, The world we knew is quietly forsaking, Shadows stretch from corners unseen, Whispers weave through the cracks between. Eyes are waking, hearts are torn, Storms are rising with each new morn…

The walls are closing in again tonight Shadows dance beneath the pale moonlight A hollow ache that echoes through my chest Loneliness You’re an unwelcome guest Loneliness is a killing thing It cuts so deep it starts to sting A silent…

Dark clouds crawl across the sky The sun’s a stranger Don’t ask why Shadows stretch They twist and grow A heavy weight It starts to show The streets are empty Whispers scream Reality’s a broken dream No map No compass Just the haze…

He walks in light A shining flame A spark ignites just at his name No need for stars when he's around His laugh alone's the sweetest sound His eyes are oceans Deep and wide I lose myself No place to hide Each glance he throws My heart…

Six-string slung across my spine, Road dust mixed with cherry wine, Sold-out nights, the amps would scream, We were gods inside a dream. Lightning in our blood and bones, Love and chaos on the phones, Now it’s silence in the hall, But…

I crossed the oceans and scaled the skies Searching for stars in strangers' eyes A map in hand but the roads are lies Blind to the glow where the treasure lies She's standing here right in my view The one I've been chasing is you I looked…

A black cat is crossing my path tonight With glowing eyes under the streetlight It steps so soft like a secret untold Is it a curse or a charm to behold Am I lucky or am I doomed Does the moonlight seal my gloom Whiskers twitch as it walks…

Even when the rain is pouring down I stand here waiting on this ground A stranger’s face I’ve never known A beauty lost but not alone The skies are heavy with their cries But still I search through weeping skies For glimpses of a dream…

Hey Yo! Better wake up before you find yourself a cryin'

A short but fun ditty... yes, the lyrics are from the heart as always.
