So, Im not altogether convinced that taking time off led to much of a recharge, though for all I know, trying to work through the rough patch would have been even worse. Cant prove a negative, so whos to say? Anyway, heres some more psychedelic rock for you. The rhythm was a lot more active than Id originally envisioned, and that led to the song being a bit busier than what I had in mind. (watch…
Sores Of Anger ============== An Adipose-Gracilis partnership 2026. North Cambridge, UK. Exploration of the ambiguous causes of male short temper: -Dodgy chemicals bought off the net to build muscle bulk? -pain from unwelcome late-middle-age developments in the underpantal nether-regions? Either way, it could be described as 'roid rage. 153 Bpm. E minor. Lyrics By James Gracilis 'Vocals', music…
A detective story with pella and stems. I did not include the vocal in the preview, because I did not need to record the full length of instruments. Lyrics The rain started before dawn, the kind that slicks the pavement and makes the streetlights bleed. I was already awake - habit, or maybe guilt - staring at the ceiling of my office on Laurier and Kent, listening to the city breathe like an old…
Off-the-cuff live guitar session. Played on a guitar with all strings tuned down by a whole tone. And so, while I'm using E minor chord shapes, it sounds like D minor. Please note that the beat is 6/8. Will add stems.
Sometimes, even I dont know what it is. Maybe tomorrow when this all goes live Ill have some idea. This one ran about 8-ish minutes over the time limit. Still not 100% sure about the mix. (Watch the VOD)

Another fun little groove in that loungy Stereolab style. I was a bit less worried this week about getting the song done on time, though admittedly it was still something of a challenge to fully get started. Not only was the stream a few minutes late, but Id been rehearsing and working out the parts right up to showtime, and even a little bit after. It all came together quickly once I had a rhythm…
The first 30 minutes or so of the stream were a disaster, and I was certain, absolutely certain, that this was the week that I wouldn't get a song done. I know, I say that so often that it's practically a running joke at this point, but no matter how many times I get the job done by the end, there's always a point where I look at what's left to get done, and how much time I've already spent, and…
Chill indie surf rock instrumental, feautring typical Stratocaster used in surf rock, rhythm guitar, bass. Feature solo bridges that lead the melody into a repetitive loop ideal for use as background music.
Strange Contemplations Based on the pom by PorchCat I started off with a psytrance like start, to go over in a sitar based edm thingy to go straight to an ending of rock mixed with synth sounds. My master limiter went wild, it started off with about -9 LUFS and in in the rock part it got all the way to -4.5 LUFS, practicly it would not sound at all i think, but i listened outloud and on headphones…
