I almost like this one. I was into it while I was putting it together (percussion overload, babie!) and playing the rhythm guitar parts was kinda fun. I had a really hard time with the vocals. I just couldn't find the pitches anywhere. Singing…

I don't like the chorus in this one at all. Everything else is okay but the chorus... let's just file it under "it seemed like a good idea at the time" and forget all about it. Guitars are all Gibson ES-335 Pro. Amps on all guitar tracks…

I don't hate it outright... but I don't really like it either. The chorus is okay, the groove is okay... maybe I just need to re-record it and play better. Maybe just tone down the grunge a little. I don't know. It's not a complete loss, but…

Nothing special about this one except that it broke my one songwriting challenge rule: I rewrote part of it. The lyrics. I wrote the melody and a set of lyrics that fit late one night and even before I conked out for the night I knew it was…

50/90 runs from July 4 through October 1. Three months. When I work on it I tend to break the project up into four pieces. Songs started and finished in each of the three months, and songs that cross between months. This is the only cross…

I managed to work on 16 songs for this year's 50/90 before I did something strummy in 6/8 time. I've started working on another 21 songs since and I've yet to do another one. That will likely change before today ends. Sorry, strummy songs in…

I don't like this one. There are no redeeming qualities here at all. Except for the last three bars. There was one rhythm guitar here but it was played through two amplifiers. The right speaker is a Fender Bassbreaker 15. The left is…

I like the melody on this one, and the vocal harmonies work pretty well. It could have benefitted from a competent singer, but I didn't do too much harm. Back in February during the RPM Challenge/FAWM I did a lot of messing with GarageBand percussionists…

74 beats per minute. I don't consciously write music in the 70-75 bpm range, but somehow it just always... happens... to... me. It's like my binky. It's like my happy place. There's another personal cliche here too. Back in the early 90's…

The Great Quest to Write a Heavy Rocker in 3/4 Time Continues. Kinda generic, but I like the vibe and the vocal harmonies aren't terrible. I used a couple of different tones for the leads which was also neat. All of the guitar parts are a…
