Your Heart is a Drum Machine

Currently reworking this tune for a live setting. This would have been one of the first songs worked on when I began to use Propellerhead Reason and it has it's flaws, having never worked to a click before and then deciding to put one in halfway through due to the different time changes in the song caused a few glitches. The start is out of time for one thing... but I learnt!

The distorted guitar at the end is recorded by an SM58 with a 10 watt amp played in a wardrobe and the video (I think) turned out quite well. Looking forward to playing it live.

New jamming place has been secured, A live set list has been sorted and rehearsals are knocking the set into shape.

One of the tunes currently being worked on:

Jesus, it's been a while since I've updated this thread.
It's nice to see the pedals and equipment in the posts above all nice and new and shiny, because they're f*cking battered now!

Quite a lot has happened since the last post.

Lucy the singer left the band due to other commitments around June of 2013 and a collection of the recordings we made can be heard here:

I started working with a new singer, Josie Van Embden, for 6 months and ditched the electronics for the time being, taking a more acoustic approach and worked on recording and mixing songs.
The recordings from that time can be heard here:

Now, it's a mix of everything and I'm going to be doing solo gigs as well as full band gigs. The newest songs I've been working on can be heard here:

It's been a fair while since I've uploaded something. The reason being that I had to learn to use a lot of new equipment (Microkorg XL, Drum machine, Vocoder, Yamaha Rm1x and Max4Live) and get them to talk to each other. Here's the results of that effort: demo of a tune that's pretty much finished.

Thanks.

Been a while since posting anything. I'm currently waiting on equipment to arrive from China to complete the setup, but it's taking its sweet ass time.

Anyway, here's a demo of a tune being worked on. Hopefully there'll be lyrics, vocals and electric guitar added over the weekend.
