Mish mosh of this and that!!! 
It's an older track that I recorded ages ago - one of few/first that has a vocal line!! Typically reluctant to lay down vocals so this was a bit of a "what they hey.."
I think I made the lyrics up on the spot so there's nothing to them really, just to hear a vocal line and experiment..

Nobody Knows...

Some parts of this are quite sloppy however I was doing 2 things:
1) Testing out a new pickup on my strat - dimarzio super distortion.
There's a secondish solo that kicks in where you're hearing that particular pickup.. the rest of it's done on the neck pickup with line 6 live.. some patch... "out of phase".. 
2) Testing out ezdrummer. I enjoy using this vst instrument. The drumbeat audition aspect ensures that I can pick n choose what beats I want where. The humanizer switchy thing in it sounds pretty kewl too.
I've kept this only to possibly go back later and create a full piece ... later..

Kind of SRVish? Just a mess around..

Again - playing with ideas. 
I have to spend some time cleaning this track up. I've got to redo the guiars (sound like they're using and ebow). 


Harmonice--  Master1

Funky sort of feel to an almost complete song. Could possibly tighten up the guitars so that it's a bit more, well, tigher.

Funky Feel

To do this I've used:
Cubase 5
iZotope Oxygen 5 on the Master
Amplitude - Solid State Bass Preamp, 100W6L6 and Chorus Pedal
Fx Channels with Roomworks Reverb on one channel and 12AX7 channel iZotope Ozone on the other. 
BFD2 - DW Kit 14x6.5 DW maple Collectors series with Sabian AA Hats and Zildjan 16A Crash, 18A Custom China and 22Z Ride Custom. 

Cover of Guns N Roses - It's so Easy  - the solo part anyways. .

I'd put this together a while back now but haven't put vox to it. If I'd put it together today I'd put a greater focus on the drums. . 
When I listen to the piece I try to imagine what bands may have influenced it - maybe a shred of the bloc and a sprinkle of The Cure?
The picture is of our dog, Saf, a Rhodesian Ridgeback with a shape on his back that resembles a Fender Strat.

Love'n messing with Audio!!
These are all one take tracks, they're not a product of sitting down with a pen and paper - simply ideas that have come about on the spur of the moment! 
I hope to, at a later stage, maybe record again and put vox/lyrics down too.
