I made a drum loop using Ugritone drum kit and found a nice sax sound on Ultra Analogue. A lot of modern day producers are making entire soundtracks on their laptops. There are now thousands of samples out there that make it easy to cut corners. I found a beautiful chord progression in D minor and matched it to a string ensemble. All played from my MIDI hooked up to my laptop. This track took me about 4hrs to make and edit. Made it for me lovely as a late birthday present.

Find My Way Back Through The Feilds

I used a ton of delay on this track, to create a kind of warp bounce sound. A lot of fun to jam with your own echo. There are different ways to wade through lifes challenges. I often find myself wallowing in the struggle. I know theres a way out, but I just want to wade around here for a while watching the ripples in the muddy bog.

Wading My Way Through The Bog

Playing around with some melancholy guitar chords backed with a basic hybrid string section and drum clicks. All pretty much free effects with Ableton lite and Launchkey.

A birthday thanks. Getting a bit loopy with this one. Using the Funky Cat guitar pack from AAS. Starting to find Lite a bit limiting, which may be a good sign.

Pull On My Harpsichord Strings

the tendon on  my middle finger is just about mended, enough to form chords, so I can pick up my guitar and play, just like yesterday,

Swarm

Trying to figure out the editing/mixing panel with a few hit and misses. I'm finding I'm a bit time constrained in regards to creating music. Rush, rush. Grab a moment when I can.

Spill The Goods

Just messing around with some simple two note chord progressions and tweaking the guitar effects to see what happens. 

Guardians of The Lemon Tree

Another guitar track. Wound out the delay and flanger. Using tube screamer on the guitar rig. Lot of fun with the headphones on.

Carry Me Away

My little foray into Launchkey47, still learning what the dials and levers do. I would have loved a synthesizer when I was growing up, but I couldn't afford one and I was probably too lazy anyway. spending time with Ableton trying to get my MIDI keyboard to sound like a synthesizer. It's a good learning curve.
