Multitrack Barbershop Tag – Fall Down

This is a tag that I wrote both the music and the words for. It’s dirty and has a big chromatic walk that is freakin’ hard to tune, but sounds sweet when it resolves. I’m not much of a bass, and you’ll hear that at the end because I can’t hit that bass note very well.

As far as audio processing, I added compression, EQ, and a touch of reverb, but not any pitch changing of any kind. So all the tuning is pure me (for better or worse).

I reserve my copyrights on this, but please feel free to sing it and teach it to people as long as you are not getting paid. If you ARE getting paid then contact me and we’ll work something out.


Multitrack Barbershop Tag – In Dixie Land

This is a short tutorial to teach you how to sing a barbershop tag! I don’t know who wrote it, or where it came from, but hopefully you find it useful!


Chopsticks Piano Duet

This my mother and I playing Chopsticks as a piano duet. And before you ask, no I can NOT play piano. I think I know like two songs besides this one, all of which were memorized, not read from sheet music.

I like this piece a lot because it sounds cool but is very simple. It never requires more than three fingers at one time, and each part can be done with only one hand, though it’s easier with two :)

Enjoy and happy new year everyone!


Videos anyone?

Ok, so I’m still not much of a blogger, but it occurred to me that I’ve been posting videos on YouTube for some time now and it seems silly that I haven’t embedded them here. So I’m going to go through my videos and make entries for them here. There will be a lot of posts show up from that but I’ll try to keep it organized as best I can. Enjoy!

Thanks to the addition of mobile traffic, I now have to make my sites compatible with SIX web browsers. Tedious.

My custom 404 page just sent me to my custom 500 page. And if you don’t see the humor in that, it’s TOTALLY not worth trying to explain it.

Politicians have a ridiculous way of passing laws to prohibit things that are already illegal.

So, I have an Android phone now. What apps should I download?
