love the loose feel of this track. the interwoven guitars sound great together

recorded in november 2011.

this was recorded when i was 14 and just figuring out how to multitrack in november 2011, using a laptop microphone (!!!) and my limited knowledge of panning and EQing and overdubs... this was also when i was too embarrassed to sing even though i was writing songs of songs. there wasn't a title for this on my hard drive, so we can call this one Fourteen. surprisingly amazing quality for something i recorded in that time, most of the stuff i have from when i was 14 is taped on cassette or is in mp3 but in horrid quality. luckily i decided to export this one in .wav when i was done recording. 

Fourteen (2011 - instrumental)

Now on Spotify!

"You're right, with me, being less than 25 years old, I've already made several hundred thousand dollars in bonds and investments and now being involved in several U.S. Senate campaigns as a strategist, I must be unbelievably jealous of you making cassettes and CDs as a whiny Canadian hikikomori."

"some nice feels here and there, but man this style (folk/indie i guess) of music is a dead and beat horse and it just doesn't really capture me and unless there is something very exceptional about it in its personality and style, and not to be a dick, but i just don't feel like you offer that here with these songs."

"I find your influences interesting because I see almost none of those songwriters in your music. They're all relatively famous (or well liked) for taking relatively simple songs to play and doing unusual things with them, or using uncommon original chord progressions...your music is very samesy and feels way, way too safe. You have an unorthodox voice you aren't trying to push in any one direction and music composed entirely of chords - you have to do something to distinguish yourself more than lyrics. Otherwise people might as well read poetry. Keep working on it for sure."

"your music is recorded on a goddamned laptop mic and there's not even any processing on it to make it sound any less shitty, you have absolutely no skill for singing, your lyrics are so basic they provide no insight and aren't intriguing in the least. nothing about your music is captivating in any way, in fact it's deliberately alienating... and you insist on posting the same selfies of your pasty baby face with every babbling defensive post you make...
you're the prime example of someone who should keep their day job"
