Two guitars, 12 string acoustic and 6 string electric, bass and programmed drums, together with a mellotron flavoured soft-synth. All recorded direct into the PC and tarted up afterwards.

Behind Blue Eyes (Instrumental demo)

I recorded this years ago, based on how I remembered the 1964 Tokyo Olympics theme music went (I didn't listen to it for reference, so I guess it's 'inspired by' rather than being a cover of). Part of the idea behind this was to record a track using just a single guitar chord all the way through.

Incidentalism

A couple of example tracks recorded at yesterday's party in Coulsdon. Recorded on Zoom H2n, about 2.5m off the ground, at the back of the hall. Some multiband compression afterwards to lift the top end and reduce the bass a little. The first track was Kaff's favourite from the night, the other was a favourite of the band every time we rehearsed it.

This Town Ain't Big Enough For The Both Of Us

I Love Rock And Roll

My version of this track by the great Flamin Groovies. Using the freely available Anri Lite vocal pack from Dreamtonics.

Shake Some Action

We started with the White Stripes version of this, but as that only has guitar and drums, the remaining two of us (bass and keyboards) decided to join in as well. This is the result. Starting with inspiration from Jack White and then building into something hopefully all of our own.

Jolene

A first clean run through of some new songs as potentials for the set. Plenty of rough edges still here but a decent start.

Sleeping Satellite

Thorn In My Side

A first completed track on Cubase, with vocals courtesy of Tan.
