I've been displeased with how EZDrummer sounds so weak and lacking punch and thunder in my songs.  Turns out, just adding a little Reverb to them, and Boom!  ....Literally.
In this sample, the first part is the flat weak no-verb having drums.  Second half is Glorious Full Power Drums!

Drums - No reverb and with Reverbe Compared

Have an idea for a song (which could potentially be the title track of an album for a band).  This is a quick and dirty 'jot this down' sample.  Would probably be the main verse 'riff'.  I'm currently deep in a Heavy Instrumental Doom phase, so that's kind of the vibe I'm going for.  You know that whole frozen cemeteries, old graves, and the crushing despair of existence thing...

TSBG - Starting Ideas

Work In Progress sample.  Normally I play heavy metal on 7 strings and baritones.  But this little riff was just crying for a strat run through some heavy spring reverb!

WiP_Sixshooter Strat

Added a bass line.  Now to figure out how to make it a 3-4 minute song!

Strat Sixshooter With Bass Sample

The Bunn at Baritone Obsessed has been posting #BORIFFS.  I was looking through my tiny tiny Riff Library and found one of my better riffs and I had even started bass and programming drums for it.  So I finished that up, shot a quick video, and here it is, my First BORIFF!

(I'd love to turn this into a full song.  I have this image of like a big Mad Max style semi-truck tearing across a wasteland...)

Guitar and Bass are tuned to G Standard
Video is at my youtube.  Look for Kamicosmos

#BORIFFS Number 001

This is part of a project I'm working on.  I took this old punk riff I've played forever, came up with it in high school back in the early 90s.  Drug out my old Fender Stereo Chorus amp and Metal Zone pedal.  Recorded it as best as I could emulate a 20 year old me would have played it.  Added a basic drum track, threw in some bass.  Here's a rough mix of it.  Next part will be 'modernizing' it.
