I entered in the song, “What We Know” which you can find on the player widget on the right.  Check it out and listen to the guitar solo and let me know if you think it is a winner!

Peace.

It is a badass course and I fully recommend it!

The whole “song” was made up of samples taken from the first clip of my voice.  The drums, bass, synth stuff, is all pieces that have been warped and sampled into different pitches taken from the monotone clip ” I don’t know what to say no more”

It was a fun assignment and Ableton Live 7 is one awesome production/performance tool that you should definitely check out if you are interested in being creative.  I still have A LOT to learn with it but it is exciting doing so.  Ohhhh yeahhhh

Lyrics (Written by Colton Boyles, friend and bandmate [not in this video])

it’s hard to ask you i dont want to rush into shallow disaster im a master of my mood i’ve spent it all have nothing left to give if you tell me you love me i’ll live i’m always hoping searching for a sign i’m fascinated about the end of time do not embarrass love you have too long to live soaring down the mountains gliding down the hills

tell her how you feel

treat the little lady like you love her so dont treat her like you would treat a ho the first time i saw you i almost lost my mind we werent together you still preocupied my mind at first inclined my body ached to want to spoon you seem focused on the savior focused to commune tell me lady is it time to dance say yes in answer by grabbing my hand

tell her how you feel

lead me to where the beat will keep us up let us use that which overflows the cup who is jealous who in here in mad who has forgotten everything you have if lately is sober yesterday is over if lately is over yes today is over
she’s a killer
i thought i told you
