This was an exercise in mixing, wherein I gave myself 3 rules:
1. Keep it simple, keep it fun
2. Only allowed to use Loops in Logic
3. End up with a song that feels polished

The R.F. Lounge

Took a few goes, but I finally got over having mics surrounding me while jamming on a snow day, and this is the result!  Just a noodle, not a complete song.

I feel like the pace of it reflects a snow day though:  time passes really slowly when you're a kid waiting for a snow day, which, I think, is why the intro is so long.  Then the excitement comes once you finally get outside, and you go crazy!  A little while later you head back inside, frozen, but looking forward to hot cocoa.  I feel that progression of events is loosely reflected in the "structure" of the noodling.

"Strangers Again" by Rachel Russell
Recorded, engineered, mixed, and produced by Steven Querry

Strangers Again

I sat down, pressed record, and then music happened! 

Or at least this recording was made.

Dueling Yankees... Or Something Like That

This dramatic reading is to be enjoyed with this piece of amazing literature, provided by the exceptional mind of Mark Petersen:

Dear New York Review of Books...

Must have been the tinge of Irish in me and the green socks, but I thought today was as good a time as any to do some irish sounding guitar.

Green Sleeves? Nope, Green Socks

Just some noodling to capture the guitar in a recording.  I'm incredibly happy with the result!
