A cover of a Robert Johnson cover of 22-20 blues by Skip James 

32-20 blues

All sounds you hear were recorded in one take! Fender American strat through Ernie Ball Jr Volume pedal + TC Electronic Hall of fame reverb + Boss DD-7 delay + Ditto looper. It took me about 5 minutes to set up the looped delay things to get that dreary tone. I had nothing to record with so I used my iPhone 4. No change in tone for solo. Are you still reading this? 

From a Steven Wilson song inspired by a (really good) movie from Mexico.

Veneno para las hadas

I Think She Knows (Interlude)

Magnolia by JJ Cale

Peach Plum Pear

Cover of Fink's single from his '07 record. Testing my iphone mic mainly so excuse piss poor vocal take. Also tons of ambient noise. Grade: 3/10

Trouble's what you're in

There's always Otis Redding to cheer you up. I tried to keep it nice and clean. 

I've got dreams to remember

A friend of mine posted a video of Katie Martin performing this song at a show. I really liked this song. I mean, really, really liked it.

When the water flows

I'm a brave boy for trying this. Braver for sharing. Last little ditty is from my favorite Megadeth song. 

Inner city blues

Step 1: Experience Weltschmerz 
Step 2: Pick a Bob Dylan lyric
Step 3: Pay homage to Steven Wilson

Chords by His Holiness The Dalai Wilson from his song Sound of Muzak

All Along The Sound of Muzak

Insurgentes

In the interest of full disclosure: Here's a little snippet of a song I've been working on. I haven't thought up vocals/harmonies yet and although I kinda-sorta know what I'll be singing about, it's still floating around in my head. 

This is what it's like to be writing up a progress report for things that are still in the process of getting done. I should have made an analogy about sculptors and chipping away at stone and still having lots more to chisel off a big block but that's way too 9th grade English assignment. 

Midterms are always harder than Finals.

I am truly enjoying (the process of) songwriting these days. It's coming much easier than it used to and I'm not berating myself if at times it doesn't.

Gear: Martin D-18, Tascam US-144 MKII and Klotz guitar cable. 

Version 00001.4

When I play music I do the best impression of myself.
