In my RM Absence I committed to writing/recording an album with my old band/singer. We are doing everything "virtually" from afar so its been a lot of fun learning the process and sending tracks back and forth. Unfortunately the rest of the guys do not have the equipment to record in this way, so its just me and him.

Long story short: I thank Trag big time for holding my hand and teaching me how to utilize garageband/logic in recording, mixing, and mastering. I know very little but learning slowly.

Right now me and my singer are writing tunes from afar, ill record in garageband and utilize the AI drummer and do my best to make them sound more live/legit. Ill mix them up with my limited knowledge and we'll sit on them for now. When we are done writing/recording, we are sending it off to a producer (He's an old pj friend and put out a few films/documentaries/compilations with some of the PJ guys) for him to actually mix/master like a professional. Hopefully by September we are all done and will put it on streaming services.

Mostly its just been a joy writing and recording music again. Finally figuring out the technology has allowed me to get all these riffs and ideas that have been banging around my head for 15 years. It's fun as hell and im kind of obsessed with the entire process.

I get such a kick out of going down a rabbit hole on how to EQ instruments whether it be the guitars, drums, or vocals.

Anywho. For anyone interested, here are a couple tracks that are "done" on our end. Mixed mastered yada yada with my limited shitty knowledge.

Artwork a buddy of mine did for this song. Hopefully he can do some sort of animation video too. Cracks me up

Lol. We're just having fun here. This was just a Brian project. Attempted a few months ago but tried it again. I can't sing so this is rather bold for me. bit of a mess but after falling in love with the song again last night randomly decided to give it another go
