Now that I have installed a new back door, my plan is to move our iMac down into the basement and begin setting up a mini-studio. I have roughly twenty-five songs I have written and would like to start fleshing them out into actual-honest-to-goodness-I-can-really-hear these-and-not-just-in-my-head songs. Even if they are all simply produced with a minimum amount of layering and dubbing and instruments—shit even if it's just my acoustic—I want to get them all down.
Who knows maybe I will investigate publishing them. Or, maybe I can find someone to buy the composition.
Another idea I had was to somehow set up the songs so that one could hear them and hopefully enjoy the song enough to purchase it online. Though, I will have to have Pixie's computer expertise to guide me through that endeavor.
JQ plays and records music. JQ no fancy with com-poo-tor.
All I want is to get them down once and for all (until I tweak them later) and feel like I have accomplished something.
My goal is going to be two songs a month. I want to set the bar a little low so that I can actually achieve my goal.
What are you looking at?
- JQ
- Dashing, heroic, able to leap small obstacles with the aid of a step ladder; yes JQ makes a great stocking stuffer or accessory to any couch. Take one home today—your Mom will be glad you did!

Two songs a month is not a low bar goal. I think it's a commendable (yet achievable) goal.
You rock. Fancy com-poo-tor skillz or not. :)
Maybe G-tot can play the kazoo on one of your new tunes.
Pixie- Absolutely! I wrote him a kazoo part for one of the songs just now. I wrote you a part too.....
What do I get to play? The skin flute? The butt whistle? My fat belly? Or perhaps just the tambourine.
Wow. All the above?
Hi Mom! Just ignore my inappropriate comment up above.
JQ—I'm just subscribing to comments.
So I'm definitely expecting s call when this actually goes down. Even if I contribute nothing consider me ready and on call for whatever you need man.
Except skin flute...
Alex- Thanks bud, I will call you.
Hope you and your family have a fun & safe 4th of July!!!
That's really cool. This guy on my blogroll, J. Elliot did that, but he did one song a week. You should check out is blog or his myspace and see if he can tell you how he got his stuff on 'tinternet for sale.
Sili- Thanks, we did. Hope you had a nice time as well.
TF- Thanks for the tip. I will go check him out when I get a chance.
