Fathead mics - Test samples

A cover I knocked out yesterday after hearing of Poly Styrene's death. This is probably my favorite X-Ray Spex song.

I Live Off You

Playing with a new toy - a Yamaha TX81Z someone was throwing away. Added some Earth-y guitar, because why the hell not?

Drone For A Saturday Afternoon

Trying out a new toy I got today - an electric kalimba. This is going through a POG2 into a TC Electronic Flashback4 into a kit-built pedal that's a clone of a Flying Pan - Left channel into a 5150 combo amp; Right channel into a Tiny Terror. One Fathead ribbon on each cabinet.

Toys Are We

Cruspy

Cover of a song by the Barnhills, as requested by their drummer.

Superbreaker

Messing around with something that could be used for a live rig. Korg SQ-1 sequencing a Korg MS-20 into Mixer (Soundcraft Signature 12) Channel 1; Korg Volca Beats synced from the SQ-1 in Mixer Channel 2; Epiphone Tele into the Hi-Z input on Mixer Channel 5; Aux 1 sent through the POG2 into the Flashback X4, stereo outs back into Mixer Stereo Channel 9/10; onboard reverb/delay. The drum level is a bit hot, but since this is a live to 2-track recording, it is what it is!

Solo Experiment March 2017

This one came to me one day while annoyed at yet another car alarm going off for no apparent reason.
