I just posted a new instrumental I've been working on for quite some time now to the
mcliimusic myspace page. Unfortunately, the download links seem to be going wonky right now, which is really too bad. The Sea is a simple structure, yet still sounds as sweet to me when I first started playing it, so that's kind of cool.
That's right, in between trying to repair an inkjet printer from work, trying to clean up my turntable, repairing my turntable from breaking it from cleaning it, digitizing old vinyl, and organizing stuff, I had time to work on some new music and finish a song I've had laying around for a while. It was a blast laying down the bass line to this sucker (that Epiphone Valve Junior gets a great bass tone too, so that's cool). I've had the framework done for quite some time now, but I knew I needed to finish it. Instead of focusing on working on my 3/4 ditty I've had in my head for weeks now, I bounced back and forth, and eventually decided I just needed to put the finishing on The Sea. So I did.
I've decided that if I had some sort of ability to play drums, or lay drums down without programming them, it'd be much easier to create and record songs. By far, drum programming takes up the most time, and it kind of drags on too long sometimes.
