Flyball's Lament (the cover one) by ORthey

ORthey — Fri, 06 Jun 2008 12:42:39 -0800

A version of my still-favorite all-time MeMu song by the inimitable Great Big Mulp, for the June challenge.

Bury Your Tracks by Corduroy

Corduroy — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 18:56:57 -0800

A more ambitious song I've been working on for a while. Would really, really love any feedback.

Secular Humanist Love Song by Dalton

Dalton — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 08:50:13 -0800

The title is pretty self-explanatory really. Instruments: piano and reedy voice.

So, Why Not? by not_on_display

More 4-track clearance. This time, it's a happy, bouncy ditty from 1993: two guitars, some whistling and happily mumbled lyrics. Recorded probably with Fleetwood Mac's Tusk on the brain, with all knobs turned up to eleven.

(8-Bar Wake) Before an Irish Funeral by rosco731

rosco731 — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 16:51:48 -0800

First song off of the new People Will Blink record. This song was written about 3 years ago and went through many transformations before it began to sound... well... listenable. When we played this song live, Azeem used a vocoder during the bridge. He forgot it in California when we recorded, so we used a clarinet, melodica, and recorder in it's place.

The Long Trail by Corduroy

Corduroy — Sun, 30 Dec 2007 14:36:43 -0800

Foolishly recorded next to a loud computer. Features whistling, a shaker, and tapping on guitar percussion. Perhaps worth a rerecording someday. Named after a trail that cuts all the way across Vermont.

Jessamyn's Song by snsranch

Well boys and girls, I imagine this is what it would sound like if one was lucky enough to hang out on the front porch with our favorite banjo picking librarian. Yes, that's jessamyn on banjo! (collaboration)

Sidewinder by ORthey

ORthey — Tue, 10 Jul 2007 18:52:23 -0800

Tuned the guitar way down and added some banjo. This song does this thing where it equates "snake" with "girl." Like a metaphor, see. Also: it seems to play better through headphones (possibly because of the use of stereo). But maybe I just have bad speakers.

The most frozenest river around by ORthey

ORthey — Fri, 29 Jun 2007 22:21:56 -0800

A song inspired by crossing the frozen river Neva in Saint Petersburg, Russia. This song is short, simple, and basically three choruses and no verses. That's right - screw the verses!

Continuing a theme, I guess...

Barley & Grape Rag by TwoWordReview

TwoWordReview — Mon, 04 Jun 2007 11:07:50 -0800

A cover of the Rory Gallagher track. I decided to learn this tune instead of doing some proper work today. I think I definitely need to find where I put that pop shield....

Overheated by ORthey

ORthey — Sun, 06 May 2007 14:52:15 -0800

I recently dislocated my shoulder, and assumed music was out of the picture for a month or two. But I was getting pissed off at not playing, and discovered if I capoed everything up really high and didn't play anything too fancy, my arm could handle short bursts of pickin'. So I made a simple song, part French and part English.

Shake your head if yes by ORthey

ORthey — Sun, 01 Apr 2007 22:34:18 -0800

A rambling instrumental with banjo, whistling, and a few other ingredients. Mix well and serve chilled.

ggg2 by sluglicker

sluglicker — Sat, 17 Mar 2007 21:51:29 -0800

This one turned out better than my first one. I borrowed my brother's guitar and as you can tell, I'm not the best guitarist around. The whistling turned out great though.

ggg by sluglicker

I just got CoolEditPro and started learning how to do this. I have no instruments at this point, but I will get some. When I was young, I took piano lessons from the lady next door for about three years. She didn't like me and used to hit the backs of my fingers with a pencil when I made a mistake. I didn't practice as much as I should have, I admit. As soon as I get an instrument(s), I'll record more and upload them here.

"Once I was running, running from..." 2 distorted acoustic guitars, a bass, a beatbox, one person yelling and some whistling.

En la zafra by micayetoca

Small song I did for a weekly TV show in Venezuela.
