pilot1x_mixdown.mp3

More Music! This is just a loop guitar I made. You can listen to the full 4 minutes of it, but it sort of (from last listening of pieces) seems to be the same things over and over. Leaving room for vocals and a beat later so we can tighten it up.

Music, comin' your way. This is a metal piece. It is just an idea right now, but I have the drum script from the Badman tonight, so I will work on it again tomorrow.

StartWithACynic_mixdown.mp3

This one has a phaser too, at about 1.75 hz. A delay of about 320 and a beat of 110 I think. I changed the tuning of the guitar to a half step down or something. I just sort of tuned it to whatever the first fret was per string. So if you put a capo on the first fret and tune to standard tuning you come up with this sound. I hope you like it because I think it is a great new direction. I am going to keep it in this tuning for a bit to test out some of its limitations and some of the new doors it opens. Plus it sounds so crunchy and nice with the spinal distortion.

This song has a phaser on it at some hz I have forgotten and I did not save it, so I will have to play around with it again to figure it out. With reverb and a 300 something ms delay. haha Man, this is being vague at its best! I think it is a new way of visiting old chords.

It has been a few days of straight up work, to a point where I could not even understand the song Ghosts anymore other than patterns with my hands. So I took a break tonight and wrote a few little pieces I hope to flesh out. This one started with a beat from the BadmanJ himself! The beat is really the crux of this song. I think it is awesome. I put a little bit of guitar at the beginning of it, but let the rest of the beat go so I could work on it later and do it justice. The guitar has a huge reverb and that is pretty much it.

The play continues

So I am trying to get a player to work so we can just stream all the songs in one place, but I am having difficulties. The guys at Big Contact are assisting me, and hopefully we will have this corrected tomorrow.

The Song Ghosts is nearly complete as well. The final stages of mixing are in order, but we are going to wait until this weekend to finalize it. So either we will mix it up or scrap it and start again with new vocal placement and new guitar. Same basic design, just different placement of the music.

I am still working on Pineapple in my free time between work and working on Ghosts. But for the rest of the week, I am letting go of Ghosts so I can play some more songs, and work harder on the ones I am leaning towards polishing up.

Tonight I will leave you with a pretty crazy version of the final song. It is mixed to death with super effects and oddities I could find in our program. Enjoy!









Mind you, this one is called MixDeath. As in the death of mixing. LIsten with head phones or good speakers to be thoroughly disappointed! Hahahahaha!!!

Don't worry this weekend we will have the nearly complete one posted for you.

GhostTrackedFinalSecondDraft_mixdown.mp3

We have been busy at work polishing up the one song Ghost. We are not done it just yet, but I will post here a bit of what it sounds like now. And by a bit I will place most of the song... ie. all of it. We are coming close to finishing it. The mastering and the completion will occur this weekend. Enjoy this one, we currently do!
