Second track from my "Haunting" series.

The chase is on. Run for your life!

Haunting

Haunting (Run For Your Life)

My Music Weeklies #Ominous challenge track.  It's still a work in progess, so may be updated in the future.

Ominous III

For the Music Weeklies challenge Upside Down.  I fell into the trap of leaning towards the themes from a certain TV show.

Hope you enjoy Downside Up.

DownsideUp

For the Music Weeklies "Gods Of Olympus" challenge. I went with Hephaestus - God of fire and volcanoes, and the guy who made weapons for the gods.

Hope this does him justice.

Hephaestus

Inspired by Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities episode "The Murmuring", here is my track "Murmuring".

The bird sound is from a recording of a murmuration of Starlings in the UK.

Murmuring

Track 2 of my "Fallen" collection.  The fall from grace.

Fallen II (Descent)

Track 1 of my "Fallen" collection.  I guess this is the harbinger of what is to come.

Fallen I (Leaden Skies)

My final track for the Fallen collection - At Peace.  Accepting the consequences of your fall from grace and living with it.

Fallen IV (At Peace)

My Music Weeklies track for #NorseMythology - Fenrir.

Chaos is sown.
Fenrir he comes.
Inevitable.

Feared by the Gods.
Bringer of change.
Bringer of Ragnarök.

Fenrir

A wee track I threw together with some samples and midi instruments. I tried adding other layers, but it ruined it in my opinion - so this is what it you get.

Starters

William and Theodore. An instrumental I put together and my better half said it reminded her of something from Bill and Ted, so then it got its name.  Otherwise it was "Riff 7"!

Also added it as a Music Weelkies #ComfortZone track as it's the style I'm enjoying recording at the moment.

William And Theodore

Here's my @MusicWeeklies #ChallengeZone track. My challenge was doing vocals. Haven't really sung for a while, and really self-conscious about it. I gave it a crack, and this is the result - Sitting Outside.

Sitting Outside

For Music Weeklies #DangerZone challenge, the picture made me think 80's movies. I found some Linn digital drum samples and spent some time building the drum track before adding music over it.  Here's "In The Zone"

In The Zone

My 30th Music Weeklies track Bare Bones. For the #Skeleton theme, it ended up very sparse. I did experiment with using the guitar strings behind the nut, so that was new for me.

Bare Bones

For  the Music Weeklies #ATuneWithAView challenge, based on the van Gogh painting "La Nuit étoilée", I present Twinkle.  Probably need headphones for best effect. 

Hope the mixing's OK. I struggled as the rain on the roof is fairly loud.

Twinkle

One take for the guitar part and one take for the bass. Apologies for a couple of poorly played chords. I present Wednesday Night.

I didn't realise how hard it was going to be to mix two tracks, but it took me over an hour!

Wednesday Night

All home recordings, all the time!  Might even move the "studio" out of the bedroom one day. Mixed and some basic mastering all done by me. With help and encouragement from my better half, Theresa.
