This isn't the best song I've ever written. I think that one is on the Quarantine Tunes Volume 1 playlist. No, it's not the best but... I'm pretty sure it's my favorite song I've ever written. Not because of the quality of the song, but because…

Long backstory: I was at a band practice and Greg the singer was telling a story about an acquaintance of his who had recently let it be known that he believed the Earth was flat. Seriously. We had a good laugh. A day or two later my wife…

When I wrote this back in June I was really loving everything about it except for my utter shit vocal take. I thought it was the key. When I redid it this time I lowered the key a whole step and sped up the tempo for good measure. Now I can…

I didn't even think of this until I started mixing tonight that this song has the exact same structural gimmick as the last song I posted. Ooops. I guess that's the risk you take when you are totally unoriginal and working on a sort of compilation…

The final song for the Quarantine Tunes Volume 4 is finally complete. I think. I mixed it using Apple Air Pods Pro and it sounds super trebly to me. I think it will be okay with different headphones/speakers though, but I'll have to try it…

I think a full year of writing and recording and re-recording might have burned me out a bit but I still have stuff I want to do and finishing the last few songs from teh fourth round of Quarantine Tunes is on the agenda (so is remixing volume…

This is another re-recorded song, but there is a little twist this time. In 2016's RPM Challenge there are two songs that were supposed to be an argument between a flat earther and a non-mentally defective human. They were The Flat Earth…

I think it was the summer of 2016. I was trying to work on 50/90 and I set some rules for myself involving double tracking the crap out of everything and not using any GarageBandy short cuts like direct signal guitars with amp sims and copying…
