ok...here's the first song (i'm pretty sure this is the first) i recorded. it's a short hip-hop tune i recorded for a buddy of mine way back in my highschool days. i recrded the vocals with a SM58 into a Behringer mixer which was plugged into the line-in of the stock sound card on my old computer. i recorded into Cool Edit and mixed the song in Acid Pro and used the effects that came w/ the program. some of the sounds were Acid loops, and some of them i did on
a Roland XP10. since the time of the recording, i re-mixed (probably a couple years ago) the song so it sounds a little better than it did the first time i mixed it. now i'm more of a rocker myself, but my buddy here was a hip-hop kinda guy, so i threw together a beat for him and recorded him just for the heck of it. keep in mind i don't really know how to make a hip-hop song so its OK to laugh

. i can never really understand his lyrics though haha, although i think i memorized em from all the time i spent mixing the song and doing the effects and shit. i did a couple more songs for him later which came out OK. anyway here it is:
