Man … this one I nailed on the first time on each track (except the drum loop – that took me a little while to decide on). 2 pieces in 3 hours!! not bad!! Obviously they are not perfect, and the mixing can be better … but I am having a blast!! For iPhone/iPad click [...]

The Sound In My Dream
I woke up from a nap. Made myself a hot dog – and ate it. Selected a drum loop, recorded the rhythm guitar, the bass guitar and three version of the lead guitar – ended up selecting the third one but it was a toss up. Easiest recording session ever for me. It is not [...]

The Closing of 2009

Friday, unfortunately I could not attend, Sidney was given the “Character Award for Trustworthiness”. And before, she was also given the “Student of The Month Award”. My kids are just amazing. [...]
