Name: On the Other Side (Instrumental Demo, April 2021) by Carl Edlund Anderson in Works in Progress
Duration: 6 min 20 s
Description: This is an instrumental demo (because I think recording the vocals would scare my household while we're all stuck in lockdown together) and there's no guitar solo (because I haven't yet figured out what I want), but otherwise this is a complete and very riffy kind of '70s-ish "proto-metal" piece.

This is an instrumental demo (because I think recording the vocals would scare my household while we're all stuck in lockdown together) and there's no guitar solo (because I haven't yet figured out what I want), but otherwise this is a complete and very riffy kind of '70s-ish "proto-metal" piece.

On the Other Side

On the Other Side (Instrumental Demo, April 2021)

Demo for a cover of Jethro Tull's "Witch's Promise", done with GarageBand software Instruments and Doggiebox drum programming. When, I get the chance, I will record proper guitars, basses ... and vocals! :)

Witch's Promise (Instrumental MIDI Demo)

SpaceIsDeep - Hawkwind (Cover) - AndyMackieSolo

A demo recorded for my former UK band, The Hibachi Dealers, in about 2005/2006, dusted off and slightly remixed in 2013. The vibe is supposed to be sort of "Black Öyster Tull", though it probably comes out a bit more sub-Spın̈al-Tap ... ;) I think this remix is about as good as I can make the original fairly rough demo recordings; I have started thinking about doing a good new recording. (But should it be faster? The same? Have to play with it some more ....)

On the Hill (Demo)

With apologies to Messrs. Davey and Chadwick, a new version of a partial demo of this classic Hawkwind song. There's more to do, but I kinda like how it's coming along. :)

Recorded in Garageband, using Amplitube's Orange amplifier models for guitars and basses.

ΛΣΔ (Partial Demo, July 2013)

Clone of the old Univox Superfuzz, a derivative of the Shin Ei FY6. An octave fuzz with two position tone switch. Riff through on one tone select, then the other. Telecaster into Superfuzz, direct into Boss Micro.

INFINITE DOPE.MP3

Rhythm and lead tracks of the Univox Superfuzz clone pedal. Telecaster, Superfuzz, Boss Micro recorder direct input. Lead uses both tone settings.

SF L&R.MP3

Silver Machine / Sonic Attack single

Sonic Attack ft Yoda (Jedi remaster) (Hawkwind cover)

Partial demo for a projected longer piece. Starts with ambient synth scares, then picks up with some riffing drone rock and world-pysch touches. All done in GarageBand with various soft synths and instruments, samples, and a bass through Amplitube.

Iset: Before the Dawn & Sunrise (Demo April 2015)

Another Psychedelic jam with the effects pedals.

Cosmic 2.MP3

Brief cover of the Grand Funk Railroad track. Burns Cobra guitar, Lunar Incantation Fuzz (modified Mosrite Fuzzrite) into Tascam DP008

SIN'S A GOOD MANS BRO.WAV

A partial demo for an "epic metal" arrangement of the famous Scottish border ballad (Child 39). It's definitely unfinished: at the moment, the story only reaches the point where Tam reveals that "the Queen of Fairies, she caught me when from my horse I fell" -- and it's already over six-and-a-half minutes long. Recorded in Garageband, though the guitar and bass amp models are courtesy of some Amplitube plug-ins, and the drums were programmed in Doggiebox with the old ns_kit7 samples. My version of the lyrics is kind of a mash-up of various attested variants; the music is mostly my own, though it references bits of the arrangements made famous by Fairport Convention and Steeleye Span. It's gonna be huge and bombastic as all get out by the time I finish it! :)

Down Through the Night (Hawkwind Cover)

Formed in 1971 ;) Carl grew up on a musical diet of folk, jazz, and classical music, before succumbing to the heady glories of rock-and/or-roll in a teenage daze. Thereafter, he played guitar and bass, wrote songs, and generally jammed out in various bands in the US and UK. 

Now based in Colombia, South America, the demands of fatherhood and family life may have, admittedly, slowed his output a bit, but have by no means dampened his enthusiasm as he continues mucking about with home-recording projects (thus being forced to add keyboards, drum programming, and -- gulp! -- vocals to his repertoire) while hoping that technology eventually makes online collaborations easier. :)
