Since Steinberg released their #StayHome Elements Collection free for 60 days, I thought I'd make use of it during this lock-down.
First attempt using a DAW (Cubase Elements 10.5)
First attempt making a purely electronic track - I know, it sucks and still needs lots of work, but I had fun making it & learning Cubase as I went along :)

I wrote this piece in high school in 1990 which started out as a guitar-hammering tune but was later intended as a string sextet. At the time, I didn't have access to string musicians, or any music making software capable of pulling it off, so I ended up painstakingly programming the lead in Turbo Pascal, utilizing the computer's internal speaker as the 'instrument'. Here we are 30 years later and I now have Cubase Pro, so thought I'd revive it to hear what the string sextet would actually sound like. I named it '21st Century Sonata' back then in the 20th century, but had no idea it would actually come to proper fruition in the 21st century!

Post-2000

21st Century Sonata

A re-recording of an old song I wrote in '99. Some very obvious mistakes here and there but I'm too lazy to do anything but a single take per track. :) This was written for Kaya, may she R.I.P

I first learned about guitar tapping/hammering from a high school mate of mine (Adam Roach), back in '89/'90, who showed me the technique and who could also pull off 'Eruption' like a champ. I, however, was never quite as gifted on the guitar, but I did know how to program a computer speaker to beep out notes, so what did I do? I painstakingly coded every note, rest and delay in Turbo Pascal, then made an executable file which I loaded up on every class room PC at lunch time, so that the next class walked in to a room full of computers beeping out Eruption in an endless loop! R.I.P Eddie!
