This is track 01, Arrival, remastered. Because there's nothing like hearing your music next to other people's music to make you realize ... yours is really quiet. :\

Week 01 - Arrival (Remaster)

Track 02 for Weekly Beats! It just kind of happened.

Made with/on/by/through: 
- Logic Pro 
- YMCK Magical 8-Bit Plugin 
- More beer than caffeine

Week 02 - I Don't Even Know

Okay, so I have barely any actual recording experience, and I just got my first two mics (SM57/58) like a week ago (should have bought a pair YEARS ago, not sure why I waited so long), so trying to record something for weekly beats was a terrible idea, and waiting until 4 hours before the deadline to even START was even more of a terrible idea. And my 1 bedroom apartment isn't the most ideal place for recording, what with ambient noise and all (central heating, computer fans, fiancé cooking dinner in the kitchen). That being said, I'm not entirely disappointed with how it turned out. Gotta get experience somehow, right? And I made it! With 8 minutes to spare! *phew*
Made with/on/by/through: 
- Logic Pro 
- My new microphones! (Actually, just the SM57)
- Scarlett 2i2 (my USB audio interface)
- Some beer, towards the end. (It gets a bit sloppier ... can you tell?)
- My Taylor acoustic guitar, and me playing it. 

Week 03 - Yours

Didn't have much time this week, so I just threw something together really, really quick. Like, I only spent about 2 hours on this, quick. Next week will be more fun.

Week 04 - Sattelites

Once again, I waited until 2:00 pm to get started, which only gave me 5 hours (in my time zone) to finish, and since I really didn't have any new ideas this week I decided to take an old track and complete it. This is from probably around 2007, and only the first 30 seconds or so was really there. It was originally for a video game ... that only really existed in my head. But yeah, this would have been, like, a seaside town, near the boats. Which is why I called it boats. But now it's more of a "piece" than a looping VGM background track. Also, the recorded parts are a little sloppy, sorry. 

But I seriously have to stop this last-minute bullshit. One of these weeks it's not gonna pan out for me. :\

Made with/on/by/through:
- Logic Pro
- A bunch of East West sounds (strings, guitars)
- Some Logic Pro sounds, shockingly enough (the percussion)
- Some guitar recording, some MIDI recording, mostly sequencing using the piano roll or TabIt (lol)
- A big ass sub from Quiznos

Thanks for listening!

Week 05 - Boats

I write music. Some of it was written years ago, some of it's more recent, or recently re-written. I don't have the means, time, or connections to professionally record or tour or whatever, but I still want to share what I've done.

So here, you'll find completed songs, but they might just be MIDI versions, or instrumentals.

I'm doing this for me, but if you dig it, I'd love to hear from you

Week 03 - Yours
