There would be a 12-string track here except I don't have a good mic at the moment... or a 12-string
Trying to play upright bass in tune after traveling for half a year yielded laughable results. Good thing the fingerboard on my electric has dots.
At this stage in the game, the Tom Petty/Bruce Springsteen vibe is sort of in my blood.
This song is going to be sad once the lyrics are all done.
Still, I like that guitar hook.
This is where it becomes obvious I have maybe spent too much time playing bass for folk/roots rock artists
Here I am going for kind of a "Sufjan Stevens meets Joel Plaskett" sort of vibe
This one was inspired by the Death Cab For Cutie Song "We Laugh Indoors"
Trying to imitate Radiohead, a la Reckoner
ELECTRO
@KillerLeprechaun: Hey there! Thanks so much for the kind words. The sounds are all progrqammed using plugins on my laptop, I don't really have any hardware per se as I travel a lot. But I definitely love the microkorg whenever I can get my hands on it. I have never tried a kaoss pad before but I really want to!
@Bankai: Ha, you made me realize I forgot to turn the limiter back on! I guess that's why it looks that way.
Portamento Steel Drums. Essential.
