cortex was kind enough to let me borrow the lyrics from his song "The Bottom Falls Out of the Clouds" (which he wrote for the first ever MeFi Music Challenge), and allow me to set them to new folky/acoustic/lo-fi music for this month's challenge. [more inside]

This song has a feel I haven't easily been able to reproduce since recording it. I can barely play the song live. Despite some horrific essing, probably my favorite home recording.

Kind of a break from recording and re-recording songs to be played live this year, this is kind of a folksy, reverb and acoustic-heavy, simple and short composition. Harmonizing my vocals is such a bummer lately, since it reveals how limited one's range is... [more inside]

Another acoustic, instrumental tune. This is the first track I've made in GarageBand (my Ubuntu machine died hard last week).

Quick 'n' dirty cover of Mississippi John Hurt's old song played on my resonator guitar. Levels are a bit off, volume jumps up and down a little... but here it is anyway. [more inside]

If someone would just make a damn album that sounds like this already then I wouldn't have to be swiping vocals and doing it myself.

This quick demo was made on my pocket tape recorder right after I had finished writing the song, and I was really pleased with the way it sounds... like it's a recording from a long time back.

The title pretty much sums this one up. Recorded at 2am or so with my lovely tele.

This is the kid friendly version (no booze or smokes). I really avoid singing, but I'm trying to learn.

Mainly an experiment with a new microphone. The vocal needs to be re-done, and made louder. Otherwise, it's okay. Oddly enough, it's about this girl... I hope it's not gauche to post lyrics :-)
Longing for summer
In the
Snow that fell around us
All around the town
Following children
Running
In and out of my life
Getting drunk and dancing
All we had we lost
Turned into
Ice
Waiting for aeroplanes
How could
You expect much more from me?
Did we stand a chance?
I tried to keep you
Dipping
Into London guidebooks
Thermals and two bedspreads
Even though we knew you'd
Never
Delay
?

A quiet acoustic diddy. Written for my old band, The Big Lie, by my former bandmate, Chris Knott.

Folkish rock that may just rip your face off. This is another song from my friend that I helped produce. Good stuff, I swear! *not responsible for said defacing...

This is the first song I ever wrote. I was fifteen. I've come a long way, baby.

A quiet little sea shanty. Unless you turn up the volume, at which point it becomes a thunderingly loud sea shanty. It's good for when you need to psych yourself up to go hunt the whale-fishes.
