I think I need to take a day off. My ears are turning to mush. I really struggled mixing this and I can't even tell if it's worth keeping or not. This song was written during my first attempt at doing anything in GarageBand. Prior August…

Now that the October album in a month thingie is finished I can get back to the better (not necessarily good) stuff. The Quarantine Tunes, volume 2. This song is wicked old. I wrote it for the 2020 RPM Challenge, all of nine months ago…

In a 10 song cycle where none of the songs were meant to feel like actual songs, this one feels like an actual song. Complete with guitar solos. One of them is backwards though, so it's got that going for it. There's some polyrhythm going…

That sure is a lot of polyrhythm, right? When I put this together, the vocal section wasn't there. I took the last measure of the song and one phrase and pasted it into the middle of the song, dropped the rhythm guitars, and added the vocals…

This is probably the simplest thing I've ever done in my entire life. An eight bar drums/bass loop, a little three part harmony on guitar, a little three part harmony vocals, a little more three part harmony on guitar, and that's it. I think…

I have to apologize in advance for bars 31-37, the section right after the vocal. The whole song is playing with polyrhythms. One guitar (and the bass and drums) is playing in 4/4 time and the other guitar is playing almost the same thing in…

Not too much happening here. I like the guitarmonies. Somehow that always sounds better with a lot of fuzz. There are a couple of places where tracks play backwards. The second verse has a copy of one of the voices chopped up and reversed…

This one isn't polyrhythms, but it wants to be. I actually took a four beat phrase and occasionally had one guitar shuffle it so beat one from guitar #1 is beat two for guitar #2. Simple. Outside of that, there's nothing all that special going…

A simple little guitar/drum loop that is just an excuse to layer big fuzzy guitar parts in harmony. I added quite a bit of soup onto the harmonies too, and put some backward vocals... just for trippy fun. The cleanish guitar is a Gibson ES…
