Spoiler for big picture:


I do have a keyboard of the kind you play on, but I'm just barely getting started with practicing basic chords.

Been reading a bit of theory here and there over the years, but only enough to give me a very rough idea of how to piece together something more harmonically complex. I'm a believer in the method of just going head first into a thing and then worry about the details as problem come along that you need to solve.
I'm not familiar with the program you are using. Hey, whatever works for you!

I could go a Songs For The Dead part 3 or a Songs For The Living Pt 2. This is a good idea.

This one is having a difficult birth. I spent so long working on it and it's only 1:43 long yet. Writing chord progressions is super hard when you know nothing about how stuff resolves harmonically. I am still determined to finish what I started, but I feel like it's gonna take a lot of banging my head against the wall.

I haven't been doing a lot lately. My friend and I that used to collab have gone separate ways, for the better if my sanity has anything to say for it. I created something not long ago and really there's no one else to show it to, so I guess I'll put it here.

It's Electronic music, so if you don't like that don't click it. It's my own style though.

Clicked it. Liked it. Makes me wanna play along, but it's been a while. I don't think I could keep up with that sequencer, but dammit if I don't wanna try.

Hope you listened with lots of low end. The heavy parts were a closed back 4x12, and it really comes across.
