Duration: 5 min 35 s
Description: rough mix of a cover XTC This World Over. rough ideas, needed to mix this and then put to bed for a while. Not brill, but liked the vibe, experimented with accordion stuff, bit of practice, badly played but got basic ideas down. The original is so much better ha ha, a favourite song

I love this XTC Song, long wanted to do a cover version of it, got some of it right, other bits very lacking, but first attempt, hope to make it better in the future

PDM: Prince St Vincent: Mix9April16 65#01 too much cymbal love

28 March 2013: 2 days before moving house, mega stress, everything in boxes, big emotions, studio almost packed up and had little idea. Mixed this late that night, next doors big fluffy tabby cat came in and sat on my lap...and tried to help with this, but paws not so good on faders.

WELCOME GEAR JUNKIES: We never have enough, always lust after stuff. My own studio is cobbled together from 2nd hand not so 'chic' (or fashionable or expensive) stuff. It works for me, an I have a lil rule, if its not been used for 12 months it gets to go to a new home....yeah right. We're gear junkies. Anyway, heres my list, nothing expensive, just stuff bought over the years that works for me...a great sound, ease of programming, fits in with my setup, was a right bargain as unfashionable  etc:
In no particular order:
Tascam DAT 2 trk (mastering), Adat 8 trk, Logic, Ableton, Roland Sh1000, Roland String Machine, SR16, Dep 5, Dep 3, Alesis Quadraverb, Yamaha Motif,
Allan n Heath GS3000, Mackie monitors, Zoom FX, TLAudio compressor an EQ, two Alesis 3630 compressors (lovem), old handmade tape delay, Korg Poly800, Kurzweil K2000 samplers X2, Yamaha silly home keyboard ps something, TX21,  Aphex EQ, Ensonique keyboard, Roland string machine, Yamaha TX7, Yamaha Drum Machine, various guitars (yawn) all got humbugger or something. An got a tambourine also....Hi, thanks for listening, thanks for following.
WISH LIST FOR 2017: roland vocoder, Mutronics mutator, anything Moog, a replacement for my beloved SR16 that gave up, some better ears and a whole lot of understanding bout this music thing....mmmm, guess thats all down to me. HPNY
Welcome to another anonymous Sound Cloud site, full of a load of music made by another noone that you probably will never meet. Some tunes here are really thought about and carefully engineered, others just little ideas posted up, sketches. Makes me wonder, why do we make music, us amateurs? We don't earn a living doing this, we do it for pleasure and through need. How many times have I had a tune in my head, an idea, and the luxury of a day off stretching ahead. All I need to do is to go to my studio and turn it into reality. Do I? No, I find a hundred excuses to not visit that space, from needing to empty the dishwasher, cook the tea, iron the garden...its all mostly mundane. And yet, after hours of using up a precious day off when I do finally make myself go and sit down in front of my monitors and indulge in some glorious tune making it is the biggest reward. Am sure I am not alone in this. A couple of years ago I set myself a discipline of getting up early each morning and spending a couple of hours (a bleary coffee fuelled start) in my studio working. The results were really good, clear head, sense of purpose and a self imposed time limit. I really had to be out of pjs by 8.30, the neighbours were starting to twitch nets and point. Honestly the best music I have made was around the start of 2013, faced with eviction and homelessness, struggling to find somewhere to live the house was gradually dismantled, put into storage, ready for a move. I resisted the studio, hung onto it for as long as possible and even two days before we moved with everything literally in boxes I stayed up late, got up early, put every effort into just getting down another tune...and another...and another. Listening back, I think it has been some of my best work. There was something about being on the brink of losing everything, knowing once we moved that I wouldn't have a studio for a while and the obvious emotional response of leaving our home that made it easier to work. I never found excuses to empty the dishwasher, iron the cat, take the lawn shopping etc....
The purpose of this site for me is part diary, a hope that I can get better thru listening here, a space outside my studio,  and part a chance to listen to other peoples stuff. I love it when people comment, please do if you have anything constructive to say, esp re engineering/mixing/producing. I am always learning and welcome any advice and feedback. Like most people on this site I am a home studioist. i.e. a bottomless pit to chuck money down...Wouldnt have it any other way.
