I started off working on something like "Cat Stevens does dreampop" but that was simply outside of my grasp/skill, so I started over and made a punk rock song about Ben Franklin style debate club in the modern day of equal rights and human dignity.

(it was actually a really interesting rabbit hole, if you like that kind of thing- Junto club -> dry club -> heretics of the lantern, etc. pretty progressive concepts, especially for the 17th century but obviously there's a need to explicitly update inclusion)

Haha I enjoyed this. Great intro, with the drink sipping and throaty laugh. It's got a lofi vibe that is pretty fun, takes me back to playing in garage punk bands. That was fun!

happy 52 y'all! catch you on the flip side.

Rudimentary 4 track sketch. Sort of Johnny Cash meets sludgepunk?

quick little sketch

a quick quasi-ambient joint

forgot to upload Sunday, but i did this over the past weekend.

someone talked me into doing some hip hop beats over the week, it was interesting and fun. I seem to fall into the "dark trap" category most easily,

(ack, had this cued up Sunday and never hit submit)

Back on a sorta synthpop kick. I also finally downloaded Valhalla SuperMassive, wonderful reverb and echo for free!

two layers of crappy finger drumming (one ezdrummer, one ableton stock "blueprint kit" plus a four count shaker loop to tie it together
bass through camelcrusher as always
guitar through guitarrig5 plus ableton stock reverb and delay for the "lead"

i went camping this week :)

here, have a golden apple
¯_(ツ)_/¯

finishing up my little EP sized collection of vaguely "early industrial" homage tracks.

one has a bit of maybe stoner metal in it, and the other was probably influenced by my partner spinning a Cure playlist the other day (the arp at least)

lyrical nod to Murder, inc in "subliminal prototype"

it seems this week's episode of "crimes against beloved musical genres" targets early alt-rock

(my phone's music detection feature agrees, in so much that it basically accused me of plagiarism but hey...)

doubling down on my early 90s industrial vibe experiment. this one is a riff on a Robert Frost piece.

another "twofer". the first one seemed too much like a sonic rut i'm stuck in so i tried something consciously different
