My first beginner attempt (both at playing and recording)! This is Disturbed's cover of the song, in the key of concert A major. Backing tracks made using Band-in-a-Box.

The Sound Of Silence (Disturbed)

My newbie attempt at milet's excellent song, Anytime Anywhere, used as the ending theme for Sousou no Frieren (Frieren: Beyond Journey's End).

Backing track arranged using Band-in-a-Box.

p.s. Pardon the amateur cover art, artist I am not!

Backing track from Song Galaxy

Ugh, gotta work more on my high notes. Also, this should have been a relatively easy song to play, and while I can play it fine during practice, but the moment I stick a mic in front of me and start recording, I make all sorts of silly mistakes. 😞

The Fool on the Hill (The Beatles)

My attempt at this popular holiday theme. Tried my own take with the rhythm and a little bit of embellishment; also a couple of blunders in the process.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Recently got a tenor sax and here's my attempt at this wonderful song by Louis Armstrong, after about 2 weeks of getting used to the instrument.

I have been working on my vibrato recently. It's still a bit crude and inconsistent, but it's where I am right now.

Wonderful Tonight (Eric Clapton)

Back track created using Band-in-a-Box 2025

I originally recorded this with a backing track from Karaoke-version, and also played the solo that I transcribed from that track. However, at the last minute I decided to swap the track out with a more generic track created using Band-in-a-Box, so some rhythmic elements might probably feel off.

Hello Dolly (Louis Armstrong)

My very first attempt at improvising a solo. Any feedback and tips on improvement is appreciated!
