RODE NT1-A

I finally bought a microphone! The Rode NT1-A Condenser Microphone. For 185.00, I got this microphone, a pop shield, a shockmount, and XLR cable, a DVD with loads of studio tips on, and a 10 year warranty. They also chucked in a boom mic stand! Can't wait for some of the stuff i'm gonna be able to record with this! Already recorded 2 songs for my flatmate tom - he's written them, performed them and sang them.





Finally got quite a bit of decent equipment, can record a lot of stuff from home now! I've got:

• a Squier Acoustic Guitar
• a Squier Classic Vibes Telecaster
• an M-Audio Axiom-25 MIDI keyboard
• an M-Audio FastTrack Pro 
• a legitimate copy of Logic  
• a Rode NT1-A Microphone

A decent set-up! Expect some acoustic tracks from both me and Mr. Killeen very soon! Leave any feedback on the tracks below!

Proud of myself!

This week I've actually got something done music-wise! Got the basic backing for a reggae track made, and I've started a cover of Red Right Hand by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds! Got no idea where its gonna go, got nothing in mind but I'll just see what happens!

Lavender Town Project

so, i've finally got my act together and started something on Reason - it's gonna be a song based on the Lavender Town music from the original pokemon games - a song famous for how depressing it was, with one urban myth suggesting it made children commit suicide in japan. lovely.



These are just the basic melodies im gonna be using, i might use these sounds aswell as others, i may use just other sounds and not use these, i'll use some harder hitting drums most likely, add some reverb and distortion on to them.

How the hell?

How the hell did this get 39 downloads? It's one of my worst song i ever did.. a shameless rip off of a Skepta beat, done very poorly.. and its on 39 downloads and 451 plays?! Jesus haha.



There it is anyway. Definitely not one of my best.. but somehow it got a LOT?!
