Awesome! Love this.
More seasonal stuff: The strings were written in Finale PrintMusic and exported as a WAV. Guitars were played live. Mixed in Studio One Prime.

Out of season stuff...
Is there a season for this?... Late night?
I like to laydown stuff for ya on the totally amateur thread. Might have put this down before but I think it's a master piece so it's worth the heckling I might get for doing it again. My stuff, a lot of the time begins with an assortment. Then I force things to go together and marvel at the results. This one, green hollow jug... I recorded the frogs. I recorded the train out by the tracks. I turned the reels around backwards manually on the old 4 channel akai for the backwards speech. Did I mention I flung this all at the monitors through my tiny little screened AW4416 multitrack with motorized faders... Oh...ok
I'm no musician, but I found a way to make sounds with those instruments... All of them! But what about song structure? There is none. I told you, I have assembled some sounds and such, I am JAMMING them together. That's where the word comes from.

This is quite an understatement. Still, the band comes through it sounding pretty darned good!
It's late, it's early, it's weird, can't sleep. Coulda sworn I just hear her say "Lizard Man and Shirley". Asleep as I sit, but still can't sleep sigh.
I hooked up with a young kid in the 90's when I was taking music classes in community college, and we ended up writing a cool hip hop type album of ideas he had. He would play an Alesis sr16 live with just crazy cool beats and then I would write bass lines to his lyrics. I used my 4 and 6 string basses. This one is a song he had about having to give up marijuana in order to start life. Weed Lincoln.
This one is hip hop, I guess. He had the lyrics and i supplied the bass. It's just drums bass and vocals but I love it. There is seriously cool bass if you make it to the end and recorded in one take. Not my type of music but i tried my best.
I Am Hip-Hop
I always wished we could have brought in some other musicians. I think it all could have been pretty epic.

They all have great vibes and I love that you all do Glendora and Shapes of Things. Cool stuff. Is that your own interpretation of Glendora? I've heard it like that before.
Recently I turned my office into a recording studio. I have been writing songs and recording for about 20 years now, but never had a proper space for it. This is my first mix in my new studio, a song that I have written as a lullaby for my son.
A better recording of my latest effort - rather than a cellphone, using Zoom G5n -> laptop, Audacity. Came out pretty clean. Effects used Pigtronix EP-2, Paradox Futura Envelop Chorus, G5n "Cry" autofilter and a touch of reverb.
Reposting this one since I noticed the link was dead in the original post. Percussion is sequenced, but I play the guitar and bass live.

Reminds me of some band from the late 70s or early 80s, can't think of who though. But sounds familiar.
I can't believe I haven't posted on this thread yet (I did a thread search)!
Here's my contribution, recorded completely on my home desktop, using Ibanez and Epiphone guitars, an Ibanez SR300E bass, an Alesis DM7X electronic drum kit (recorded into Superior Drummer 3 to access the better sounding drum kits), and Audacity.
