,low-key nature rave" sounds like a great idea...

Stoners Garage (Jam session)

This is our first attempt at a modular track...ever...and our first demo for February Album Writing Month this year. (A late start, but we're trying new things, so what can we do?) 

Gear used: Modular synth (Tip Top CB808 + other FX), Yamaha CS01, Behringer Model D, Crash Pad, Super Space Drum, Yamaha REX 50 (for reverb).

Dream Spaghetti (FAWM Demo)

2nd solo track for FAWM, only used 2 of my 4 tracks on the cassette, so might add some stuff on here later. I've been super busy with work and my neighbor has been really stressing me out all of a sudden, saying she's going to call the cops on me for playing music at 4 or 5 pm super quietly, but from her commentary seems like it's more about me being a foreigner and having foreign friends over once in a blue moon for dinner or chilling. Soooo trying to avoid drama and just kind of wanted to make something kind of chilled out and dreamy. I made some basic loops with my Yamaha Portasound (PSS-390) on my RC-202 and then just played around with the effects on them and did one take that I was semi-happy with.

OK let's file this to: WTF. The thing I like about February Album Writing Month is I often take risks and do weird stuff I'd never do during the rest of the year. What I don't like about FAWM is that I often will spend way too much time on a track obsessing over weird stuff and then get listener fatigue and just throw up a really crap mix, but whatever, it's just a fun experiment. Spent so much time doing the samples and Casio bits that I just did the vocals in one take, so they're not perfect. 

I have this weird cassette I found somewhere called "Magic Music Mountain" that's a story about these people who all play different instruments getting letters from the Magic Music Man who has invited them to a party at 3 pm. It just sounds like this low-key nature rave, and I've always wanted to make a weird dance song with the cassette, but really never am motivated to do this kind of stuff normally. Anyway, this is the result :)

This is essentially just a jam session we did tonight on our recently-purchased cassette player--if you want to skip the super jammy part, go to about 45 seconds in.

This is our 3rd song for February Album Writing Month. Recorded in our home studio in Tokyo. We were eating BBQ chips and no good name was coming to us, so for now this is the BBQ chips cassette.
