Day 216: A Brief Moment in Peace

Having two small children can be really stressful sometimes.  Especially when you're outnumbered and have 8 - 12 hours alone with them.  Every once in awhile I'll catch a break and they'll both nap at the same time.  This happened today.

Cheers.

Day 143: Walking the Halls

An ambient piece that explores some dark alleys, noisy passage ways, and shadowy places.  A quick jaunt rather than a marathon.

Day 123: Art of Noisiness

The cacophony of today's piece may accurately represent my mood today.

Lyrics:
Start your engines,
Stop your cringing,
Since you're on the fringe,
Don't think about revenge

Slow your patrol,
Before you fall in a hole,
Everybody is on a roll,
Even if they aren't they're in control.

Yes I built this house
No I'm not a mouse.
If you think you can find a louse just try it.

Last week we went to the show.
We wondered where you were and why didn't you go
Tearing down is much easier than building
As long as you carry that sword you've been wielding.

Day 94: Money

Dubstep is not a genre that I'm ultra familiar with, but I do enjoy it on occasion.  The production is something different than a lot of other things I'm attempted.  Here's me dipping my ladle into that well.

Lyrics:
Where is my money?

Day 81: A Chance to Breathe

Today is a rare day.  A "free" day, we'll call it.  No kids, no work, no vehicle and nothing that really has to be done.  As a result I was able to do something I rarely do now... play guitar.  There are only a couple of guitar tracks on today's work, but it was refreshing to be able to put live instruments on something and not be interrupted.

This track started as an experiment trying to use only loops, but went off the rails (as many of my experiments do - FOCUS!).  The driving force behind it is definitely a few core loops, appropriately mangled.



Lyrics:

Steel yourself 'cause here it comes.
You don't have a way to live.
You don't have a cent to give.
You don't have any way to survive, but yet you thrive.
You walked thru the open door, not a single thought to where you were.
You challenged everyone before they even said a word.
You held us all in open court, your opinion was the judge.
You told us where we could all go and quickly walked away.
You told a lie, you told the truth, you tried to parse your words.
You split us up, you shut us up, you overcame each verb.
You thought you had the upperhand, but you only had a lie, but yet you thrive.

Day 61: More Modules

Another experiment with Ochen K.'s A-series1 and 2 synths.

Lyrics:
You probably think you got me fooled,
But you don't know a single thing.
You probably think you got me fooled,
But you don't know one damn thing.
