I am going to post this even though alonetone.com is being really, really weird tonight.
If that doesn’t work then you can listen to this… it’s from soundcloud. I feel dirty posting anything from soundcloud. Every time someone uses soundcloud to embed a track onto their blog a kitten dies. Really. It’s true.
Now, if I told you that the lyrics to this turkey were based on an episode of The Walking Dead, you would be able to tell which one, right? (The title is a giveaway)
Did you hear that? I finally did it. I finally put a little backwards guitar onto a GarageBand file.
But wait, you can’t reverse an audio track in GarageBand. How did I do it?
Well, I’ll tell you!
I recorded a little lead guitar as the intro to this crappy song. I then exported just that 4-5 measure part to iTunes. I then took that audio file and loaded it into Audacity where I reversed it and saved it. Finally, I pulled the reversed file from Audacity into the GarageBand file and BOOM! Backwards guitar.
Here is the second of 10 (probably) songs written and recorded for NaSoAlMo. As has often been the case lately I am 90% asleep right now, so I have no idea if the mix I just finished is listenable or not. I’d consider it a big bonus if it sounds okay.
Hello and welcome to the first song finished for the 2014 NaSoAlMo. Aren’t you excited?? It’s more than seven minutes long and it’s got lots of 12-string guitar. It fits both of my mini-goals for the month. Hooray!
Not sure about the mix. It’s very late and I am 90% asleep, so who knows if it sounds good or not. Surely not me!
Just a few minutes after I told myself I was done with bluesy songs this month I came up with this thing. It’s like I don’t even pay attention to my own ideas. What a jerk.
Just a note, alonetone seems to be lagging like crazy tonight. I’m not sure if this one is going to be playable. Good luck. You’re gonna need it.
Here’s another song for October. This makes two. I don’t loathe this one yet, but it is a touch too long.
It’s done! That’s 50 songs in 82 days! I am a 50/90 winner!
I honestly didn’t think I could do this one. Of course, out of the 50 songs I think zero are any good, but who cares! I finished on time!
Another song in 7/8 time. There was one day when I just decided I was going to put together a ton of stuff and it would all be in 7/8. I ended up with three songs. This is the second one. The third one was the dump I posted earlier today. The first one was pretty good. The second one (this one) was okay. The third one sucked. That’s how it usually goes for me.
When I woke up this morning I had three songs left to finish. Now I have two songs left to finish.
Please don’t hold this suck of a song against me. Please.
It’s almost 2:00am. I went to a wedding tonight and when I got home I couldn’t sleep so I finished this mix. I don’t know if it’s any good. I’m too tired to be able to tell.
