I covered a Nirvana song... yeah... Smells Like Teen Spirit. It isn't a good cover either. Just a cover. Got the beat and timing dead on. Other than that it wasn't all the impressive. My guitaring is pretty sloppy, even by grunge standards. The drum programing was fine, yeah... as long as you have beats per minute and a basic idea of rythm that's going to work out. I cannot sing, especially when I'm trying to not sing... I mean growl or shout or scream or whatever. So eh... vocals where good... too good.

I mostly did it because I could, and I wanted to try to reproduce a good song. I think I did well enough for me to consider it a success. So yeah... if your wondering if you will hear this song I'd say no. I'm not posting the work that was originally another musicians, even if I site it and I played all the instrunments. but mostly because when you cover a song by a band that was as popular as Kurt Cobain every mistake or change you make would be criticized. I'm not in the mood for that right now.

But I had fun working on it and it was a change from my usual unstructured jacking off until something good comes out of it. I also tell myself that it was good practice and I learned a lot from it and will become a better musician and music writer because of it. yeah... really.

Okay I usually us my posts for unimportant babble that no one needs to hear. But for once I have something I must say. I have to talk a little bit about The Orphan Bill. You may have heard about it. I think that knowlegde of this menace would be very important to Newgrounders, since you are putting your work up on the internet, and you have that right without having to worry about compensating your right to own your work. If this bill passes I don't know how much it will effect Newgrounds.

Pretty much from what I've gathered heres how the world would change if the bill was passed. You think up an idea. Something creative. You put the work it to create this thing, a composition, a novel, a poem, a painting. Than once your finished you have to go to a municipal building pay who knows how much and then you can own the rights to your piece of art. Even though you thought it up, created and completed it. The supporters of this bill want to take your own ideas and sell them back to you.

Call your state representatives. Don't know there numbers? than figure it out... oh... you don't know who they are? well... find out! This is your lively hood we're talking about here. Something has to be done. to ensure that this bill doesn't pass. The fact that it ever made it to the floor is something I find very disturbing.

Well... okay maybe it is. but... still... why can't I write a review for Never Hundred. or Ever Nundred or what ever it may be? I mean yeah sure you may think that I'd say I was a Godless Heathan... or... whatever. But it's just not true.. well... in context it is. But I had a dream and well, it was like all the work I ever uploaded ever onto the internet was being reviewed in the same way work is reviewed here. I think I got three tens, a five a three a one and two zeros.

So That's what I give my own work I guess. Subconsciously anyway. I think that evens out to a five or something like that. eh... whatever. pretty mediocre, and I am. I'm only a musician becuase I don't suck at it. Unlike everything else I've ever tried. Yeah I know, I have emo hair today.

I mean it this time. I'm so awesome. If I keep saying that I'm I'm really great thn\an it might actually become reality right?

Alright I have one day to write and record a song with no synthesizers. Can I do it? maybe I can... we will see. I hope it will be as awesome as we all know it will be.

"You're not all that great at the whole guitaring thing are you?" ... ... ... O_O

They've found me out!!! just kidding, that was just me talking to myself. I think most of it is poor recording quality really. But there isn't much I can do about that is there. That and I am a pretty sloppy guitarist. Not by grunge or garage standards... but I listen to Pink Floyd and Metallica. Like... I don't know f I'd eer be able to pull off even a simple guitar solo. Though... In the song No Response there is a pretty good solo around the end. It's why I keep that little bugger around.

HEY! Give the songs a half a chance... usually the intros are short and I only repeat crap if I like it, the filler bullshit is to keep things interesting and less repetitive. So NRYARGH! yeah... I said it... I typed an incoherent vocal sound that would in my average face to face conversation imply that I'm frustrated and who ever I'm in a discussion with is full of bullshit.

"Stop attacking people before they listen to your music you crazy schizophrenic fuck."

To which I say... shut it... me... hmmm... actually wouldn't be a bad idea. I really should try to not be an asshole to you people. But if your still reading this than... wtf. something is wrong with you. And if I say that than... well... you must be doing something right. haha. wait... no... that doesn't make sense.

Alright posted stuff. mostly duds... yeah whatever. I still think that in some cases people didn't give a few tracks a chance before voting. But I wouldn't expect so much. And sure maybe the songs aren't great, mistakes where made. but what what? I've heard far worse... not repeatative, very much rythmical... more attention could have been payed to the melodies. Yeah... but I've been mostly influanced by dance and industrial. I suspect that the listeners just weren't in the mood for the sounds of madness. bwahaha!

I think my biggest problem is that I feel artistically trapped and creatively tapped. It's just a phase though, it will pass. I need some change in direction, I've got to go find something new. A new inspiration... or a new crowd... or a new... something. I have no idea what I'm talking about. yeah... I'm sorry for the insanity.

So I'm thinking of posting part one of Intake up on this site. It's posted everywhere else on the internet... But than what will be on the album if it gets released... uh... I mean when... I said when.

So yeah... most of these songs are starting to have a similiar foundation, acoustic picking, electric guitar rifts, synthesized bass, and a string like synth. There are exceptions of course, and although I think it's pretty diverse... it's bothering me.

I have to change it up soon, or else I'll start to feel trapped. I have a bass guitar, should be using that. I should be working on more mixing and producing techniques. But guitar is so much nicer to me, I'm not the greatest guitarist and I know that. Sure almost anyone can play guitar and most that do are better than me. I actually failed guitar lessons when I was a kid. And most guitar teachers are pretty patiant... than I tried taking a class on music theory my senior year in high school. hahaha! I failed that too!

oh...I'm literally chuckling out load... in a cyber cafe. People are starting to stair at me. So... I should go. I'm such a joke. There was a mysterious record playing on the turn table turned it up and it was Mike Oldfields Tubuliar Bells... but the record was seemed warped some how. I should download the track, looks like it's about thirty minutes long though.

I wanted to record something this weekend. haha... yup... when I had the twelves string and a working bass. That... did not happen. Came to this craphole makeshift studio, couldn't find the wire for the bass that I own, looked for it but it's missing. I found a little old acoustic guitar though.

So I played a few rifts on the cruel jackson, a guitar that would be so much cooler if I knew how to play it. Played the chords on the acoustic added synth bass and the programed drums... which are mostly stacked not looped. I don't know... if the song is good or not. Haven't decided yet. So I'm going to post it on the internet and let the world see it as the failure it has become. haha... or whatever. I'm a stupid face. blame me. I won't mind.

So I think I'll try to put up a song. That's what I have planned. Than I'll go to sleep... Yes... it's six in the morning here... NO! I didn't forget to sleep last night... uh... yeah. I did. Was gonna... but than some people signed on... got to chatting... it happens.

So that's why this blog makes little to no sense. Becuase my brain stopped working around like two. And I've been a robot ever since. heheheh. yay. I made a comment and it was helpful... so now I have one helpful one nuetral and one useless comment. Sorry 'bout the useless one... it was pretty bad. Almost as bad as this post will probably end up.

Well... um... I need to put up more songs so... I'll go do that. After I sleep and eat food or whatever it is you humans do. enjoy... and remember to buy more evil.
