Description : Another beautiful vocal piece from MusicIzMee4Ever supplemented with some words from Steklo and a couple of other vocal samples thrown in too! There's a lot going on in places and I just hope it's not too busy. The solo is on my old Casio MG510 guitar with some inserts from Logic Pro. The rhythm guitar has a Jim Dunlop Cry Baby pedal between the guitar and the mixer. Drums are EZdrummer. Everything else is Logic Pro. I've pushed the envelope here - hope it's not too far!
Description : Once again the very talented MusicIzMee4Ever provides the inspiration for a dance disco groove track. EZdrummer provides the kit and I have added a little Ultrabeat riff and some congas too. The bass line I doubled with my electric guitar. There's also some "house fever disco strings" and a synth patch from my GR55 in the solo as well as a couple of extra bass parts that arrive around half way through. Oh there's a piano and a triangle in there too!
Description : A cover version of the Nora Jones song executed quite beautifully by Pauline Wright (she is the singer in the local band I work with).

Description : Vocals by Farisha and if you haven't heard her work you should. It's amazing!

The track is a bit minimal and I've tried to allow the multi layered vocals shine and not be over cluttered with much else. Percussion is Superior Drummer (using brushes instead of sticks), bass is a Sterling Sub 4 (a recent acquisition) played in live with an attempt at some funky slap stuff in the last chorus (tricky!) Guitar solo is my trusty Godin XTSA on the acoustic setting. Keyboard is a patch from Logic X.
So good to be working with this quality of vocal. Thanks Farisha.
Comments always welcome.

Description : Another collaboration with Farisha (love those vocals). I played in the bass part and and the piano part using my old faithful Casio MG510 midi guitar triggering some sounds in Logic Pro. The acoustic is me again on the Ovation. I really like the sound of live drums and the EZdrummer plugin is as close as it gets - I really like it. The cymbal crashes and splash are from Logic.
Description : A collaboration with MusicIzMee4Ever and a real musical journey for me. I hope the quite heavy guitar, bass and live drum sound doesn't overpower the great vocals. The guitar is played in with a wah wah setting from my Roland GR55. The piano part is played in on my Nanokey and is patch in Logic (now running version 9). Drums using EZdrummer and an additional percussion part well back in the mix from Logic.
