a Deerhoof "pre-cover" I made after they posted the sheet music prior to releasing the album in October 2008. Mine was purposely straight compared to some of the others that folks made but I thought I predicted the band's version pretty well…
i've never tried gating one track to another. going to try now though. I use gates all the time, but I dont know they are there. built into a drum synth or a bass synth, both applied after recording say, a guitar track. I'm quite certain that those effects work by gate and trigger. Audacity has a gate effect, which I have almost entirely overlooked. certainly didn't know it could do that!
It seems a lot of you record with open mics and can relate. I record 1 track at a time with usually 4 or 5 tracks. So, Im only asking for about 15 minutes of Silence...IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK??? Anyway, my house is so loud, I get a lot of bloopers…
On this beach made of sand and shells
and broken hearts
as with so many things in this life
it ends where it starts
And like the waves that will roll over me
you take away everything that I see
So I walk to the place where the sand
and sky…
This was an experiment today to try and write and record a song in 2 hours. It came out as a lullaby, I wrote it after a neighbor girl asked if she could have her ball back from my yard and I felt like an old man.
what I meant, really, is that I liked the way you felt free to play around with limited materials in this track (and others); and the different colors coming out of one chord is what made me think of Stimmung. It's all about the ear, and you have a good one, rather than theoretical knowledge (though that doesn't hurt, despite what some folks say).
Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…

your vocals are very soothing. songs are great too!
great little tune. the almost falling apart at the seams thing...you pull if off really well...which is harder than many folks think!
such nice tones!

very nice; almost stimmung-like in the chord focus
wonderful stuff...!
