Testing out Snocap

Gentle reader, meet Snocap:

Chances are you've seen this program/service before, on MySpace Music. It's very easy to use. I view it as akin to a tip jar for any song I record that you like. Go ahead and plop down 79 cents for "Fistful of Fuzz." That is pretty cheap, for a whole fistful of fuzz.

More songs to be added soon.

Girls Love Elvis

This is an old one by Command27. Very old.

Cho Sung-bum's on the drums, and Choi Tae-hyun is on bass. The Korean girl Oi! band Non-Stop Body did the sexxxy backing vocals.

How old is it? Let's just say the girls who love Elvis now have daughters who love Mariah Carey.

Untitled

Bigjohn One of many tracks I've whipped up and done nothing with, because it's not in my genre. I guess you could call this "metal." I'd call it "Finkcore."

Bells of Window Rock

Img_0955Probably the most challenging composition; the mixing was very difficult (how to pull off a string-quartet feel without lessening the punch of the guitars?) but overall, I think it’s great. Listen to it, over and over.

UPDATE: I tried to fix the strings, which were out of synch, and would up muting the guitar. This should all be fixed now.

Live in Harlem! What else can I say? Thousands of loyal fans, doing the Flusher, doing the Shitty Monkey,Vcc44 having a good time, having a few beers. The audience seems to have really liked this one.

Jungle Panther Force

Bbjonesa_2 The theme song for a short-lived idea for a blaxploitation TV show, Jungle Panther Force never really got off the ground, in large part because its producers realized the show idea was retarded.

Escape from Beijing

Img_3534_2

A (very) rough mix, my first experiment with GarageBand. The program so far works beautifully, and I still know only a fraction of what there is to learn about it.

The mix itself is an example of my hatred of writing lyrics. I don’t write music because I have something to say; if I do, I write an essay. I make music because I want to rock the fucking house down.
