Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 

Browsing through files I ran across this one today. This is my first official attempt at writing a punk song (I actually have another song similar to this that I wrote 15 years ago called "Rat Guts," maybe it'll pop up here sometime). The result is probably more metal than punk, though, and very clearly nods at my love for Fishbone. But I had a blast doing it and still have a lot of fun hearing it back. Check it out here>> Get Your Face Outta My Space

Hello Friends. I have put a new song on my website. It has no lyrics, just guitars and synths and whatnot.

If you have time to listen to it, please do. This time the track is in 128k mode to help aid in a faster download time.

The track is called "a Moment In Eternity".

Hey Ben... I really like it. Nice mixture of sounds. Cool theme and overall piece...

Hey Roy, thanks for the listen. I was too impressed with the way things turned out on that track. Not to sound egotistical, but its rare when I really like a drum track that I create, and that song happens to have one. Since I am not big on using pre-recorded drum loops, I am proud of the programming on that track, though it in itself is a loop, the mix on the drums I do like.
And the end explosion I like, when the electric guitar and synth 'tines' come in.


Thanks again for the listen.

Ben,
I was gonna comment on the cool percussion (like the clean shaker thing going on), but didn't want to sound like that's all I like about it. Again, good job. Your stuff grows better every time.

Hey Ben,

It really sounds great. What did you use for the percussion ? (Reason ???) Good stuff !!!

Take Care,
Gene

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 

Hey Gene, good to hear from you. Actually, all the drums I programmed(In protools of course) from my Triton. Looking at the session now, its actually two drum tracks woven together. One track is a simple kick and that 'shaker' sound Roy was talking about and then a snare rim tap, and the other track is more of the electronic drums(kick, and a snare, and that deep kick sound that hits once per measure around beat 3).

As far as reason goes, I havent used it much, but I suppose I would like to get to know it though. Im not much of a reason guy, but I havent completely ruled it out yet.

P.S. Gene, how is Emma Lily doing?

Re: Let\'s hear your latest stuff....right here
 

Thanks Ben,

I have been meaning to get a little more into the percussion side of things, you really did a nice job !

Well, Emma is exceptionally happy these days. I have been working on a Double from the Bach Sonatas and Partitas. It has been a while since I have given her any attention, and she is really responding quite well, it just the old man here who needs a little more work on it. I'm really trying hard to get this recordable just for my own experience on playing and recording. The real truth is that I talked to my teacher over the holidays, she is 93 now and she asked me if I have been practicing...well I did not lie and got a good lecture. What is it about teachers that can get you really motivated ?

Thank you for asking, Emma will be pleased that you asked !

Really nice stuff... I wish you nothing but success my friend !!!!

I have been putting together a new site, independant of the video stuff. It is in the early stages, but it is a start.
