Backing In

I tried recording a song but I couldn’t get the drums quite right so it turned into a 30 second intro with very minimal drums and mainly guitar and bass.

Anyway, it’s called ‘Backing In’ and you can get it from Ourmedia

I would have scrapped the whole deal, but I wasn’t about to let this thing beat me. I need to experiment with the order in which I record things. For this piece the drums came last, which has often worked in the past, but not with this one. Life is like that sometimes…

Shelf Life

I created another song and got it uploaded to Ourmedia using SpinXpress.

It’s called Shelf Life.

I’m getting a lot more familiar with GarageBand, and experimenting a bit now. I even recorded a few guitar tracks, the bass track, and a vocal track (which you won’t recognize as vocals) for this one. The drums mostly came from a loop.

A Song at Ourmedia

I’ve been bothered by the fact that Ourmedia has been fubar’d for me for quite some time. I mean, I was an early user, and a good supporter, but when my account no longer allowed me to upload (due to some weird problem on their end in which they seemed to believe my archive.org credentials were incorrect) I pretty much stopped using Ourmedia. My videos (and some audio) were going to blip.tv, and nowhere else.

So I did the only thing I could… created another email address, and registered it at Ourmedia, The Internet Archive, and SpinXpress. (Yup, now you also need to use another service/piece of software. SpinXpress is recommended to actually upload your media files. It’s a pain, but it actually worked!

That’s the long complaining version of saying, I created a song. It’s called 13 Diodes, and you can find it at 13 Diodes at Ourmedia or 13 Diodes at The Internet Archive. (Creative Commons Attribution License.)

Anyway, let me know what you think of the song. Most of the music I’ve been creating lately has been put into the videos I do, but I may start playing around with just doing songs on their own if I feel like it.
