So I’m still trying to get the feel for recording in here. This week we got a theme of “Graffiti” and I did something a little inspired by American Vandal, a hilarious mockumentary. Anyway, for obvious reasons it’s over in Spicy Punk.

I still don’t have a proper workflow down here but that’s why i’m still down here. This week we had a theme of “Mantra” and I decided to make some space rock or shoe gaze or whatever you’d call it. Or at least try to.

I decided to finally quit slacking and set up the room TCB uses for rehearsing into a second studio room. I haven’t felt this slap-dash since the earliest 2HTS tracks back in my apartment with the Alesis electronic kit. This room has one of those smaller QuestLove kits, all the amps are solid state, the mixing board is ‘garage-sale bargain’ quality and I’m using my original Scarlett 2i4. Come to think of it, the AT-2035 is also leftover from the old setup. And mixed everything on headphones because I don’t have monitors down here. We had a theme of Eulogy and I did the best I could in the new setup. It’s over in Punk.

We had a theme of “Home Alone” and I was just goofing around and slapped some Vocaloid on there. If you’re a santa believer it’s a christmas song, if you’re a filthy santa denier it’s a horror story. If you have a discerning ear it’s garbage, but I’m just going to leave it in Vocaloid.

Merry Christmas everyone!!

We had a theme of ‘Taxes’ and I’ve been meaning to play around with some of Logic 11’s latest features So I played entirely in the box, so-to-speak, using only what’s stock. I even mastered it in the same session using the new Mastering Assistant. I should have used my normal chain but I wanted to stick with the experiment. It’s over in Jazz.
