Live acoustic performance by AfroDJMac and SuperKid of "All of My Life."

All Of My Life (Live Acoustic Cafe)

This is a little song about the crazy lengths one might go to to prove their love to their girl. 

I would rather throw my money in the fire
And all of my things to show I'm no liar
I would drive my car right off of the highest bridge
I would let my body be bashed into a billion bits.
I'd rather take my life
And cut it with a knife
I would rather die than ever leave you
I'd rather get a gun 
And prove to everyone
That I would rather die than ever leave you
I'd never leave you

I tried to recreate the beautiful Univox bass guitar on this track by sampling it and building this Free Ableton Live Pack.   

I'd Never Leave You

Chilled, noisy, instrumental music made from a collection of ambient sounds and sampled instruments.  Recorded in Ableton Live to a Tascam 388 8 track reel to reel.

With The Stars

This track was written and recorded during a snow storm. It contains acoustic guitar, drums, electric bass, lap steel slide guitar, Korg MS-20 and Sequential Circuits Prophet 6.  
I've sampled the Prophet 6 patch I created and built Ableton Live Instruments that you can download for free at http://bit.ly/freesynth139 . 

Snow Day

A mellow, sparse instrumental made by resampling an arpeggiated chord using the new Max for Live Kasio instrument and the AfroDJMac Operator Glitch Drums.  

Praying Mantis

Here's a track I made using samples from the Commodore 64 drum kit I put together recently with http://www.BedroomProducersBlog.com  I decided to make some music using those drums after the passing of Jack Tramiel.  It's  little tribute and a welcoming to the next phase of life...

 You can have a free Ableton Live Download of those drums here:  http://bit.ly/freesynth51

Thanks and enjoy!

Jack Tramiel Tribute

Substitution (Live 8.9.12)

"All of My Life (I Have Been Waiting For You)" was recorded outside in a screen house around midnight 8/18/12 on Long Island, New York.  Written and recorded by AfroDJMac and SuperKid.  Recorded on the Teenage Engineering OP-1, using its internal microphone for guitars, vocals, and percussion.  Keyboard added inside Ableton Live with the AfroDJMac CP-35 Pack (free download of that instrument here: http://bit.ly/freesynth9)  

Lyrics:

It's alright Tonight
You'll be home before long
All of my life I have been waiting for you
When I'm alone I dream of you
Before you go make sure you know
All of my life I have been waiting for you

All of My Life (with SuperKid)

Wu Wei is a piece of music inspired by the Daoist concept of effortless action. It was made by sending a sequence to the Behringer Neutron and Model D, while running the sounds through Echo devices feeding back into each other. There's a heavily processed field recording  of rain and thunder in the background to add texture and ambience.

Wu Wei

This is a live performance I did, on the air, for WUSB (Stony Brook University Radio) in December.  I played five songs and did a short interview (which was not included here).  All music performed and recorded using Ableton Live.
