The First October Music Song

I haven’t posted any music in a couple of weeks. I promise I am still working on something for the month of October. It just doesn’t seem to be going anywhere.

Here’s the first song, complete with crappy sax playing.

50 Songs Down, None to Go Because I’m finished

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!

49 Songs Down, One to Go

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.

47 Songs Down, Three to Go

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.

46 Songs Down, Four to Go

The triumphant return (not really, this song is a turd) of Florida Man. This is a story about a guy who called 9-1-1 to ask for a ride to the store. Awesome.

The music is kinda weak. It’s not bad, but it’s not A-list either.

45 Songs Down, Five to Go

This isn’t the 50th song finished, it’s 45th, but it did start out as idea #50. I thought somehow that a goofy swing thing with sappy lyrics was fitting. Do you agree?

50/90: 44 Down, Six to Go

Only six more songs to go, and I have six songs in progress. There are still 17 days to go. I’m not feeling confident yet, but I will say I’m thinking about trying to get to 51 songs. We’ll see.

5090: 43 Down, Seven to Go

The idea was to have a hectic verse and a simpler chorus. It sort of worked at first, until I swapped out my simple iPad drums for the GarageBand Drummer function. Now the chorus feels pretty hectic too. Somehow that’s all right with me.
