    The lost art of living

    This is a track I've been working on that's been KILLING me. Stylistically I am going for a 60s kind of vibe. I realize the vocal is super wet - that part is intentional, and that my vocal is all over the map and pitchy - so it goes - I've tried about 100 vocal takes of this thing.. I had this...

    They Don't

    Haven't recorded a full track in over two years, but as threatened I am back in business. Sold my gear when I left the old house and been Craigslisting my way back to a setup. Now I'm in a new house with a new setup. Recorded this track yesterday. I'm a little shaky from being out of practice...

    Anyone else using Garritan CFX Concert Grand?

    I'm blown away by the Garritan CFX, anyone else using it? Most of the reviews say something along the lines of this - “The best point of all is that you very quickly forget you are playing a virtual piano as it feels so much like you are playing the genuine article.”, and I actually am finding...

    Please to listen to my new track and feedback - 'Facsimiles'

    Stylewise it’s another 80s type of joint with some crampy vocals. My grey roots are seriously showing on this one….. Hadn’t done an electronic number since last year. As I relayed to the Heatmiser - major renovations on the house, my 'studio' is long gone - so I don't have my drums, piano...

    Maybe some mix feedback on a track called suprise yourself

    Looking for some feedback on this initial mix. Its an oddball kinda track for me. I used lots of synths and tried for a 'big drum' sound. Other than that it's my usual menagerie of Gretsch, Les, JBass, Guild acoustic, lotsa plate reverb (yeah I know). Used some weird guitar effects. I downloaded...

    MXL 880 Mic $175 shipped UPS US

    Hi all. I have an MXL 880 Mic I am selling and thought I would post it here before the other forums in case any themers are looking. Link to specs is below. I liked it, but it is a little to present in the upper mids for my voice. I have original box, mount, paperwork and probably used it about...

    Yes, it's Country time again..

    This is a cover of an old Ricky Nelson track in my patented goofy faux country style. I could sure use some ears and advice cause it is driving me batty. You guys were a big help with my synth and garage rock crap, so why not country :-) Any thoughts, ideas, suggestions whatever would be most...

    Shareware/Freeware VST Distortion/Overdrive

    Hi all, I am looking for a recommendation for a Distortion/Overdrive VST that has a creamy/smooth/thick distortion with some meat. All the stuff I have demo'd is just crappy super gainy, over the top crispy/fizzy high end that sounds like fing shit with my les. Real Amp is not an option in...

    Music for the purpose of dancing

    This is a track I did a couple weeks ago, insprired in part by kcearl. I was trying to recapture the sound of the 80s new-wave style synth pop shit I used to do when it was both the 80s and new.... I realize I am pushing the living shit out of the bass on this - but interested to see if I can...

    Food Eater

    Hi, Since it seems to be picking up a little around here I thought I would try posting a song again, been awhile. I posted a version of this few months back that clocked in at 1:20. Then a few months later I got the idea to chop a verse, plant a 40 second solo in the center of it and make it a...
