The Good Green Earth

Clearing out the backlog with a good old instrumental. After moving to Jersey, I went through some withdrawal from being separated from the 500-channel Yamaha. I compensated by learning Garageband’s software instruments, the musical typing feature, and how to edit its digital “notes”, which increases the amount of potential instrumentation by at least, oh, six hundred bazillion. I spent a few weeks getting nowhere with all the beeps and blips and hip-hop beats and synthy violins, but from it comes some self-made morning-commute music, if nothing else. Only time will tell. To some people, synthy violins are cheesy. To others, uplifting. One day those people will meet and go to war. I’ll be on the Light Rail to Remco, headphones on, listening to this song.
…and we’re back!

Hello, one and all. We have returned from a (gulp) 8-month exile from the blogosphere. ‘Exile’ might be a bit harsh, as it was more of a sabbatical. A sabbatical where, instead of engaging in travel, study, and/or the betterment of ourselves, we recorded an album. Well, two. Sort of. Whatever it was, exactly, that we did do, it prevented us from posting to our beloved blog, a situation we intend to rectify, right quick. We are, after all, a ‘blog band’, and to our bog, we must bland. We have not been sitting idly on our hands these past 7 months, no matter how much fun we actually do find in that activity, and have some mp3s ready for imminent foisting upon ye. We thank you for your patience and for keeping up with the site. Details on the aforementioned recordings will be coming soon, believe you me.
