Description : Just an acoustic/piano piece I threw together a few nights ago when coming home from university. My brother and I were doing some acoustic music together in my room, just having fun; came out with this; I immediately got on my DAW and recorded it before I forgot how ti went lol. Hoping to get some strings on it soon as well as some vocals from the bro! :P In the meantime, enjoy this instrumental.
Description : This is an acoustic cover of the song "Come As You Are" by David Crowder. I recorded, mixed, and mastered this one in two days! Almost done burned me out haha! Hope you enjoy!
My older brother does the lead vocals and I do everything else, from instrumentation to harmonies. No vocal-editing whatsoever in this one. The guitars were all one-take recordings. Updated the audio - I added tambourine hits in the 2nd and 3rd choruses; just helps make for a more moving song.
Description : This was actually my first attempt at recording an acoustic guitar, almost two years ago. I had just learned at the time that STEREO sounds so much more immersive than MONO. I was too inexperienced enough before to think that panning was all that important :P This was my attempt at getting a wider sound with acoustic guitars. The guitars and vocals are all done by me. I did most of these vocal recordings in one take - hence the wobbliness in some parts :P But feel free to comment and let me know what you think of it.
Description : This track contains several loops, all of them are from looperman artists - listed below. I don't know if "ambient" fits well for it, but i get most loops from that category. :)
Inspired by the Final Fantasy series and my ex girlfriend. Hope you will enjoy it (not my ex! :D). As always, free to use for a song, any opinions-critics welcomed... UPDATE 2015.10.24.: improved audio quality - lower lows, higher highs. Now in 256kbps!
Description : This is an acoustic song. All guitar, mandolin, and percussion were recorded by me. Vocals by DownWithBen. I have no rights to the vocals
Description : Psychedelic blues hip hop with lead banjo and acoustic resonator slide guitar. Acoustic drum kits, fat basslines, soaring filtered strings, some strong Eastern elements (from guitar and strings), some dub and funk from the bass and drums and a bit of rocking electric guitar. Very unusual piece of music and a trip like no other I've heard. Some of it is like a dark, deep Southern delta blues track over a hip hop and dub backing. All played and programmed by me, no loops used.
Description : Something i did doodling on my ACOUSTIC! Yes my acoustic. 2 takes panned hard stereo. No effects or EQing whatsoever. Loopable if chopped properly. 110bpm - knock yourselves out;)
P.S. I would really like to hear some cool drums with this...
Description : It's been so long (too long) since a collaboration with the outstanding talent that is Farisha Haque. You can find more of Farisha's amazing work here.
So a bit of a departure here in that it's a real bass guitar (apologies to Dave Marshall in advance!) My trusty Ovation Celebrity provides the acoustic which is spread across the stereo image, EZ drums and EZkeys (I should be on commission) and some other patches from Logic. The solo is on the acoustic setting of my Godin XTSA.
Description : Just a very simple, currently weak-sounding acoustic track. This is the basic recording, mistakes were made, the recording quality isn't great, and I forgot to use a metronome. Would've used my electric, but I still don't have the strength to lift it (been in awful shape the past few weeks as a result of illness, better now though). Any advice is welcomed, not tried acoustic before, but might be something I attempt more in the future.
If anyone's interested, the guitar I used was a Yamaha F310 :P
Description : Well, this is rather hard to explain. I wrote the lyrics to this a year or two ago but it sounded too much like a country music song, and I don't make country music. So, the song got shelved. I finally decided to put her together and this track kinda took off. The acoustic guitar credit goes to InsaneSmilie, for his Insane Acoustic loops. The beat was made in FL Studio 10 And all the vox are me. I really tried to make this as little country music sounding as possible, but let me know what you think. Enjoy and peace.
Description : A collaboration between myself and Farisha (love those vocals). Laid back vibe, acoustic guitars, a little string wash, string bass and a simple drum pattern plus sumptuous harmonies. I played the two acoustic rhythm guitars (panned hard left and right) and the short solo. The solo is my Ovation Celebrity through an AKG 3000B microphone. The bass was played in using my Korg Nano keyboard. The drums are Ultrbeat.
Description : An acoustic Rock tune.Its pretty much one loop sliced up in spots.
Thanx to Angelus1818 for the great acoustic guitar loop!
This is my first track done with a loop,not to mention I'm not very experienced with cakewalk or other DAWs.I just wrote and sang this today.Its basically about the troubled youth of today who are torn up inside and feel like outsiders.But really about anyone who is going through something tough.Its a little choppy, but I hope you enjoy!

Description : It's been a long time since I posted a track.
Voyager...
I wanted to go with something very spacey. Huge sci-fi fan, from anime to cheesy 60's B movies. I didn't want something all dystopian. It's been done. So, I kinda thought I would make something about a lonely space traveler. I named the track after the Voyager I space satellite. The 'Voyager' in my head(vision?) was just an astronaut. But, he watches the earth die. The last person alive scenario. Hard to imagine what the last person alive would have in his head....
Track Detail - Sequenced in Reason 4. Nothing on this is a real instrument. The intro pad is a weird little Malstrom patch with a envelope filter and chorus. The chorus module is cv modulated non synced so its kind of wild. The first pluck instrument is a Koto. It's not played the way it should so it sounds more like an acoustic guitar. The violins are a Mellotron patch. The acoustic guitar isn't a preset patch but was made using Reason's other presets. I like that patch. Could of tried recording a guitar but I found that mock up to be alright. Other sounds were some weird modulated textures made with Thor. Drums were just samples that were filtered and pitched to fit. Kick and snare played off my Axioms pads. Hats were in a Redrum module.
Listen and enjoy. If you don't like it, leave me violent feedback lol. Cheers :D
Description : // updated back to orig // UPDATED Dec 21st, 2009 - Dance mix version. Includes the 2nd verse I did but never integrated into the acoustic version, also without any post-session vocal tuning, also includes ALL the lyrics of the first verse (where I had crammed to many words into verse spaces and removed a lot before putting out the acoustic version), not mastered well.
--- the spaces left over after your plans open up in my life
after work we sit by the lake until the night
comes to us cold but the glow of fire feels nice
the black sea out there kisses us with ice
i hold you close
in arms, under blankets, by the fire tonight
feeling warm, and the rain sites on the horizon
the tide of wine and smoke dances in light
tonight i remembered to say
imagine if we'd only one day
to do all the living left in our lives
we'd run to the stars
find one to call ours
and wait out the day and set the sun away
over and over waves from the lake wash over us in the night
it's cold and it's sober and it's hard to wake fore the light
when i'm wet and cold, it's the fire that I keep in my site
i hold you close
your arms around me, we swim towards the fire, through the dark of the night
feel our hearts glowing warm
we pull ourselves up through the tide
oh last night i remembered to know
that outside of it's glow
that the fire still burns for you and me both
we've all our own lakes and fires
all under all the same stars
and from one to the other it's never too far
Description : A sultry, seductive, and fairly short acoustic blues number. It is an instrumental and only took about 2 hours to write, record, and get a decent mix. Enjoy! Updated: I added some slight echo to the electric guitar and widened the stereo fields of the acoustic rhythm and leads.
Description : Wrote it on a relaxing Sunday morning. Acoustic guitar rhythm with an acoustic lead, bass and guiro. Updated: removed some percussion, remixed and mastered.
Description : this is me and my dad.
the drums are made in FL by me also the bass.
the acoustic guitar "solo" in the background is me (I know I aint so good with it but we didnt "practice")
my dad is playing my electric guitar for the main riff. and is also the vocal (wich is NOT serious :D)
its recorded 3 times.
1. Main riff
2. Acoustic "solo"
3. Vocal
thought I upload for fun :D just to see how the quality of my microphone was when recording
Description : Okay...here is my 3rd song and it is a 2 part song. This is a Blues tune and about as 'blues' as you can get! The 1st part is a slow 78 bpm with Acoustic guitar tuned to an open 'E' using a slide. Also, using an acoustic bass and drums. Part of this is from a loop CD, as I am playing the bass and drum parts too.
The guitar is fingerpicked so you'll even hear the strings slap against the neck now and then. :-)
The 2nd part starts about 3 seconds after the 1st is done, and it features a Fender Strat tuned to an open "C' using a slide as well, and the guitar has a 'crunchy' sound at 93 bpm. I am playing bass and drums on this also, and with the help of a loop CD. I used effects such as compressors, limiters and reverb in both songs.
Took me month working on this, so now I am off to work on something else. Hope you like them,
Randy
