Description : Yet another one of my "pop classic tracks" that I wrote and recorded waaaayyyyy back in 1993. Once again, please don't laugh. :)
I just thought that this song would be fun to put on looperman to show ya'll a "different softer side of me" since most people know me as a rocker type guy that plays in a crazy garage-punk band and would never thought that I'd write something like this. This song is off the "Time of Passion" album that I wrote and recorded. It's old, (like I said, I wrote and recorded this in '93) but still a keeper and every once in a while, I'll drag this song out and perform it for a few friends. If you like The Cure and bands in that genre or even alt-Americana, (No Depression) hopefully you'll like this song, because it can be played different ways. Everytime I play this song, it just keeps on getting more and more 'country' sounding. I don't think I'll ever be happy with the way I recorded it, but what's done is done, but mybe one of these days, I'll record it with just a fiddle, guitar, mandelion, resonator and bass. I think it'd make a really good country song.

Hi Billy! I always like listening to fellow musicians/ songwriters and also Gibson players. Nice track, really catchy and well recorded way back in 93. It would be great to hear some new stuff, and seeing your a tone port user like myself! What your new stuff will sound like, cheers Slap...

I'm old school ! and I write my own stuff and is mostly folky ballads like this so i can really appreciate it, As I was listening to it I was thinking the cure and sure enough you had compared it in your description as I read it (weird) going to fav it after this review! nice job ! "would love to hear this live!".....................thumbs, Johnny G.

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.
Description : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
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 : This song was not supposed to be the fourth track of "Diverse waves", but it finally is. Anyway it's a rock oriented track with some interesting sounds. I hope you like it. Worked in zenbeats DAW, by Roland.
Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
Description : This track was like the inhale after an exhale of aggressive industrial-electro-sludge tracks that I had put out that summer and fall. This was the more reserved, and introspective winter track. It's nothing spectacular, but I still really enjoy it. I hope you do too. Take care. V.
