I'm terrible at marketing & self-promotion, but I'll use Bandcamp Friday as an excuse to remind everyone that I produce ambient & experimental DIY music, and you can even buy it. And when people buy it, it really means a lot to me.

I have a cold so can't think of a slick, or witty, or engaging way to to promote my Bandcamp stuff during Bandcamp Friday.

Instead I'll just say I'd love to collect a few more followers . . .

Good luck everyone else.

I must stress for your own safety, beware!

This is "UNAUTHORISED BONKWAVE RAVE"

This Bonkwave has not been sanctioned by the council of Bonk, or any other Bonkwave authority.

I say again for your own safety, this is UNAUTHORISED BONKWAVE RAVE!

I need to hurry up and finish recording and producing the track I'm working on. Want to get it finished by the end of the month, which is only ten days to work with. I have a fair amount of media to go through to find what I want, so need to get cracking.

Heehooooo! New guitar is sooooooooo much fun to play!

I've just been messing around with it to get used to the sounds and suddenly I was in Dead Kennedys territory, playing Too Drunk To Fuck and sounding like (albeit much slower) East Bay Ray!

How cool is that!

Working on my #BonkWave submission and here is a #ShowYourWork snippet. This is the last third or so. Arrangement is more or less done, but this is unmixed, and unmastered so might sound rough . . .

Hey @c_gurra

These are the only two guitar bits I've put down so far. Both are using Guitar Rig 6, both are too quiet and too sloppy to use in a track. So I've lined up a ton of how to record guitar on Ableton tutorials.

Other track is in post after this one.

New track. It's an uptempo Afrobeat track. I previously demoed it on the show your work hashtag. This is the finished mixed and mastered version.

Well I'm hugely excited, I've found a Zoom R20 for a really good price and it's due to be delivered today. The R16 that I bought recently is just not quite right for me (thanks to its weird UI I ended up recording over tracks instead of starting new takes).

I'm looking forward to noodling around with the R20, it looks like I can hook up some midi drum pads or a midi keyboard as well as the using the usual XLR inputs.
Exciting!

Old tracks, new Bandcamp EP😂

#MusicProduction #MusicMonday #electronica #house #pop #music #DIYMusic

The new tune I was working on is exactly the same as the tune I've just written. I spent so much time working on the production side of things I didn't pick up how similar they sound. Good job I noticed very early on!

Quick! Noodle around for a new lead part!

Haven't got the time or patience to mess around with Wordpress. Having comments on a blog shouldn't be stress inducing.

On the off chance anyone wants to comment on this and future blog posts, I've moved to #Substack to see if that is better than Blogger.

So, again, here is a blog post about what I'm trying to do with this whole DIY music thing and the Electronic Music Production Odessey I've embarked on . . .

First effort at remixing a track based on excellent feedback from @ThunderComplex

I made my own remix that kept the high pitched vocal chops called "I Feel It (High AF Remi), but also made a version without those called I Feel (Thunder Complex Mix)

Actually, while I'm at it, here's something else which might be of interest to someone somewhere. They hosted an online event as part of the Broadside Ballads conference a couple of years ago, quite interesting stuff.

This just came through from Martin Atkins (PIL, Pigface, Killing Joke, Ministry etc.). It's a free online event if anyone is interested? I've been to one or two of Martin's online things and he's very articulate, funny and a welcoming host.
