Old is the "new" New

Well... it's been some time since I posted anything new, life is keeping me very busy these days. Anyway, here is a little something I whipped out this evening. It's very 70s sounding - complete with Univibe and Leslie goodness. Please excuse the drums, I'm not the best "keyboard" drummer out there.

All the guitars (including the bass) were tracked with my Line 6 Vetta II amp, straight into Cubase via S/PDIF on the Presonus FP10.

Enjoy.

New strings brings out the Muse

It's amazing what a new set of strings will do for your muse!

I'm not that big of an acoustic guitar player, but a new set of strings seems to have made the difference. This is a simple little track I improvised in open G recorded with two Shure SM58s and a direct feed from my Simon & Patrick CW6.

Retro-tech

I was playing some old Cubase tracks that I fiddled about with when I was working for Keyfax New Media and found this little ditty:

Sorry, it looks like you can't do Flash

It's got this sort of retro sound - courtesy of the Arturia CS80v, Arp2600 and a few other virtual synths - but it also has a electro feel. Fun stuff either way.

Heat and serve!

Mmmm...Organ-y

There are times when you want to rock out. And then, there are times when you want to to play cheesy organ music. This time, the Organ won.

A little ditty

I got my amp talking to my PreSonus FP10 via S/PDIF. So I rattled off this little ditty... A little somber, but with a touch of hope. Enjoy.

Les Paul: 1915 - 2009

Normally when someone important or famous dies, we sometimes have to wait years to see the impact they left behind. With Les, I think his impact is already felt throughout the music world. From his perfection of the solid-body guitar to inventing multi-track recording (say "Thank You" Pro Tools), Les was the mad/genius uncle I think we all wish we had.

The world will miss you Les.
