    Dress Up And Make Believe

    Too early for Halloween songs? Please let me know your thoughts on the mix. It is a simple song with numerous references to historical, mythological, cinematic, and popular figures. Enjoy, I hope!

    Click on the Icon

    I posted this in the songwriting forum last August after doing a hurry-up mix to submit it to the soundclick.com 10th anniversary song contest. The rules required that "soundclick" appear in the chorus. I wasn't really happy with the first version. It made the cut to 200 songs out of more than...

    Have I got a chance?

    I wrote and recorded this to enter the SoundClick 10th anniversary contest. The song must contain "SoundClick." The winner gets a grand and a free 10 year VIP membership. What do you think? http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=714806

    For Bob and Tom fans: Her Name is Kristi

    Here's one I wrote some time ago. I have no idea why!? The recording is one of the first I did, so the quality is not that great. I emailed an MP3 to the show hoping they would play it or do their own version. I've heard nothing. I hope you like it and it makes you smile...

    Unbelievable, revised

    I took the few comments to heart, re-recorded the vocals, added some punch to the kick, tamed the bass, and tweaked the mix. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=714806 How does it sound now?

    How do you listen: a poll

    Hi, all: I read a piece on Hometracked that suggested you should mix for your audience; particularly how they listen. The concensus was that the majority of people listen to music through headphones and computer speakers. So, how do you listen? If headphones, ear buds or good ones? If...
