Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

VERSE 1
Well, I've been looking for the answers
to the questions of this life
I've been searching for the Truth
the Way and the Life
But in this life I've been running
away from You
But I'm done with that life
BRIDGE
Or else I'll fall away
Or else I'll fall astray
CHORUS
Oh, gonna show em' what I'm made
gonna stand on bended knee
cause' sometimes it takes more
than standing on our feet
And I'll push back the mountains
that stand in my way
with the strength that He gives
to fight another day
VERSE 2
In a world of desperation
Standing in the cold
If I'm honest with myself
I can't do this alone
Well I think I've found the answers
to fight another day
I gotta place my trust in You, Lord
BRIDGE
CHORUS
INTERLUDE
The world tells me lies
says I'll be alright
when I'm all alone
without You
Well I've come to decide
That I won't live my life
I won't live my life without You
CHORUS

My older brother does lead vocals, I do all instrumentation and backup vocals, except for the solo guitar parts, which the oldest brother did. Recorded with Pro Tools 12 by yours truly. Comments welcome! LYRICS PROVIDED!
Description : Just electric guitar, bass guitar, Superior Drummer, and time. A little bit of everything. Feedback, critiques and indignant rage are most welcome.
Description : Just a simple instrumental rock track. All played with real instruments.

Thanks for taking the time to listen to it. =)
Description : Spanish title is El Sonido de las Olas; based on a beautiful acapella by AshesNDreams on this site (look it up, and give her some love please).
This track took me in a very different direction than what I usually do... but by Jove, I had fun. Muchas gracias!
27/4: accoustic guitar re-recorded, adjusted the mix a bit. Thanks everyone for the amazing comments!
Description : guitar pop/rock...vocs needed...thank you
Description : I wrote this song some time ago when I was living in Florida. It's even more true today.
Vocals by Arthur Granquist, guitar by the great Kevin Lysen, drums by Marc Karmatz, also the recording engineer.
The idea musically was to take some rock and some bluegrass elements, mash 'em up and see what happened.
Every day is a struggle to do better in a crazy world.
Description : Here's my first try on Patricia Edwards Acapella.
The vocals are bombastic !!!

Description : Almost punk like creation from the old days of The Kyudars Band! Re-recorded only recently in live fashion. All played with real instruments(me on bass guitar). Just don't bother the silly lyrics. ;))
Description : Instrumental song, let me know if you wanna listen to song with lyrics but there is russian vocals
Description : My transition track here.
Want to start integrating some guitar into my tracks.
Description : Here is a new rock track that I recently wrote. I sang and played all the instruments. Drums are from EZ Drummer, everything else was played live. If you like the track feel free to download it. Thanks Kyle!
Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.
Description : Hello Loopies!!!
This song was supposed to be a Bedlam Kids track, but due to the low (none) interest of Pete on continuing that project, I'll upload the remaining tracks as instrumentals as soon as I can.
For now, here's a song written almost 7 months ago, it's called Simple Things.
Hope you enjoy it!!!
XpekT.
Great job. Like the song. Would love to mix this myself.
The whole thing is plain solid man, congrats on that. The voice is spot on, very radio friendly, did you used lots of editing on the vocals or you just have it in you ? anyway it sounds great !
Excellent job from all of you guys..!!!
This is incredible stuff, you guys are amazing.
I haven't had the time to hear all your songs yet but so far this is the one i enjoy the most, everything is just so well balanced and professional sounding.
Well Done !
Fave'd
Regards
LOVE THIS. Wish I could press the download button! All I could say!
Don't know how I missed this one, but I'm very happy I found this. Your entire family is very talented. You guys should form a family band because this song is absolutely great!
Was the mixing hard to do for this one? I would think it would be harder to do mixing for real instruments rather than doing it for synthesizers, as you have to deal with interference and outside noises the mic picks up. Regardless the mix sounds great on this end. Once again another impressive track from you, can't wait to hear more!
Hi. I've commented a reasonable amount on your acoustic tracks but not heard so much of the rocking stuff.
This sounds very good, even though I'm not particularly into it. The vocals are excellent. I don't love them but they're perfect for this style. Right up there with a lot of very commercial, big-selling music.
I can go into more detail if you like regarding the other instruments but just wanted to say for now that the vocals really stand out. This kind of music is all about making them stand out and be catchy so you have a definite success there.
Oh, and EQing the vocals probably hasn't removed any unique quality. They sound good but also quite generic, which is partly what makes them good (in commercial terms).
Oh and I like the delivery of the line "If I'm honest with myself" - probably the delivery of "honest" in particular.
Ah - one criticism. Vocal delivery of the "you" in "without you" and "day" in "another day" I do not like.
Yo this is a nice one.
Pure rock. All sounds good to me. Nice guitar sounds, nice voices, all fits very well. On my system it sounds realy well mixed (special for a real played rock song)
So you all did a great job. Looks like your fam is a club of talentet boys :) and lots of talentet friends are around .... thats always good to make some nice music.
stay tuned ER

Well, this is some good stuff here. Sounds pretty mainstream, but also pretty heavy for Christian music.
Vocals are really good. Nice character to the voice, though not really unique.
V-drums or not, they sound pretty good. This was a pleasant listen. I'll be looking for your tracks in the future.

Yet another impeccable track! congrats on the outcome. If you aren't signed yet it will surely happen soon at this rate. keep up the great work.-EazyBeatz :)
it's simply a teenage rock dream track, very radio friendly indeed. Sorry to say but I do't get it, I am too old for this. But anyway it's so nicely performed and I can really appreciate that. Really nice work on this one!
Killer rock track and very radio friendly indeed. Only thing missing is a killer guitar solo (Showing my age) Bon chance.
Cru
Nice job. I know how much it takes to record drums because im a drummer. To do this track in one take is awesome ! You guys are very tight. Reminds me of when I was in a band except we were a metal band lol. Nice job man your music is awesome.
This is a cool pop rock sort of song, I dig it! I think your brother's and your vocals are quite excellent! All the guitars sound pretty good too. All in all a very cohesive mix. I agree that it could be improved with a real drum kit, as I found the cymbals to be quite tinny, but it didn't really take away from the effect of the song. Had fun listening! Great work!
Hi Epic,
This is a "perfect" track.
First of all: it's well played. Damn good!
The band works well and the playing is tight and "convincing".
The sounds are all very good: I cannot point out any weak point. Maybe you could do "more" on the drums (with a live kit) but they are already convincing. Very convincing.
Outstanding delivery of the singers: you and your brother have good intonation and interesting voices. Liked.
Ciao, Domenico
Man you guys are a band, With this rock song, you guys killed it.
Great to hear you guys rock out. Live to fight another day, which reminds me to fight the good fight of faith. Most excellent job. Crystal clear professional and pristine recording, vocals, music, lyrics, etc, etc, etc. On a list of all excellent comments, I vote all of the above for a perfect score.
Really good job, ER. You have an excellent band. You are very lucky to have your playing mates close enough to all play together...I envy you! My mates all all over the world, so we have to send the tracks to each other.
Cheers,
Scott
Great job! Really liked the ending how you faded out with the vocals. Sounded mixed or just really good :)
