Bam.

Oh, and Hoglen's got another song we recorded last night (by his pen). I just don't have the MP3 yet but it will be here eventually. :)

Re: February Album Writing Month 2010

Hey Phil, I did one song in particular that I think would appeal to you, being in what I sort of think of as "Wages' style." Let me know if you like it. http://fawm.org/songs/13854/ I see what you mean. I found myself singing along. :D Actually, do you want to do the vocals for the final ...

Re: February Album Writing Month 2010

Ended up having to make two pies (pre-peeled too many apples). Too bad none of you can be here to help eat #2. I would totally give you a slice with ice cream on it.

Fourteen down and DONE. I just won FAWM this year, and it's not even halfway through the month yet! I totally could have too. I just didn't devote any time to it. But at least I'll be eating homemade stroganoff and apple pie tonight (not together, but linearly). :P Oh, and Hoglen and I have two son...

Demo number 12 is up! I think I was channeling Wages on this one. Two more to goooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You truly have a gift in that you can complete 12 pieces of music in such a short period of time. I'm feeling a little violated. Oh, and my two new tracks Fighting Apathy While Seeking a Smile and A ...

Bill - Yes, it is exactly a Heroes reference! :) "don't go get the Haitian, I'd like to keep my mind"

BLT - Thanks! It's nice having a person behind the mixer and having good headphone monitoring. I can sing so much better when I can hear myself!

Would it be anything else?

Well, actually, it may become Hoglen & Wages on most tracks. :)

Re: hey listen to my new song (thread)

Hey guys. Here's what I've been doing with Hoglen. Both songs are just originals (not SF titles). I play the sloppy lead guitar on both tracks as well as sing both tracks. Hoglen is doing harmonies and acoustic guitars. I think another friend (the one who helped us record these!) did the drums and b...

Re: No Flava Original Twists Reviews (coverfight)

BLT - Thanks for the rockin' version of my melloncollie tune! You're welcome, good sir. I heard the chords and changes and it hooked me. I instantly pictured a post grunge thing and it took off. Also as a bonus , if you are interested. I will send you the music minus all vocals and mix yours in and...

Re: A No Twists Original Flava Cover Fight

Got my recordings made. Ehhh. Not that thrilled with the overall result, but I came up with some ideas that I think help it a bit. Going to relisten tomorrow, maybe remix, and then done.

Re: A No Twists Original Flava Cover Fight

Any suggestions for killing reverb in a room? I built some foam panels which I hang on my walls, which helps a little bit. Also, if you have hardwood floors, look into area rugs. Adding furniture helps too. Worst case, you can make a vocal booth..... I just ordered more panels from GIK Acoustics: h...

Re: A No Twists Original Flava Cover Fight

The drums and guitar are pretty much done. If I have time, I'll add bass (but don't hold your breath). My goal is to record the vocals by this weekend. My new 'studio' has a LOT of reverb which is a very strange recording experience and I can't tell if it is affecting my ability to leave tone-deafne...
