365 Day 100: Simple

I was going to make this a monumental post, but I'm busy with exams. however, day 122 -- roughly 1/3 of the way through -- is mostly free so far, so I'll put something big up on that day!

365 Day 47: Solar

Well, I was bound to do a recording of this at one point or another. Just to get practicing thinking while soloing over changes and phrasing and such. This turned out pretty okay, I think, but I wasn't really premeditating any of the gestures as much as I think I should be.

Also, Day 50 of this project is coming up, marking a little under 1/7th. There will be a bigger upload -- I may need to get another soundcloud account, or do something differently...

365 Day 39: Let the sound out

One thing I absolutely LOVE when I come home is that we have a Very Nice Piano. And by that I mean a "Wagner" baby grand piano. this is [my mom's computer's interpretation of] part of what it can do.

I'm not sure if the "Aviary" player will work, so I published it to soundcloud as well. enjoy!

365 Day 2: Dance of the Infidels

Because I love dancing as much as I love infidelity. (hatehatehatehatehate.)

Still don't have the chord progression memorized, so the improvising's a little rough, but it's a fun, tricky tune. Bud Powell.

Layer recorded through my craptop mic -- sorry for all the hiss. The noise near the end is my earbud falling out, right onto the strings of my bass.

365 Day 1: On Your Wings

I'm sure you've heard of the 365 project, and the variations on it. People take a photograph, usually of themselves, each day for a year. I've decided to undertake a similar project, but with audio recordings of myself.

These will probably not be of amazing quality, but I'm about to come into possession of a nice mic which will make everything better. Until then, from my laptop mic:


On Your Wings originally written by Iron and Wine. I take no ownership of this wonderful song.
