Convoy Train Theme (clean)

Another cleaner mix fromjust sifting through files and experimenting with Audacity and high pass / low pass filters. Originally in 18 layers, now in 4?

Composed by ear, transcribed with Finale, recorded with a Casio CTK-6000 via firewire into Audacity circa November 2013. I was taking a course through the Toronto District School Board at the time and somehow this melody just came to me when I was supposed to be revising lesson plans, lol.

Fixed Echo and Reverb Let It Be Me Cover

Just a quick test on cleaning up some muffled voices and extensive echoes and reverbs in the original recording. Trying to update my graphic design section and, of course, I stumble upon the bits and pieces of layered track, lol.

Testing the tempo on this score. Also, it has been years since I’ve played this (original track here), so I wanted to make sure a) I remember howto play it and b) if it sounds better faster or slower. #WorkInProgress #FeedbackAppreciated

As the title suggests, this is just an instrumental cover; thinking of layering with plucks and hammer ons.

I think it sounds better now that A) It’s on an acoustic and B) It’s in the proper key, lol. Apologies once more to the Everly Brothers #SorryICantSing

However, I did want to test out the Audacity program with my AT2020 + Yamaha Guitalele  on Windows 10. Apologies to the Everly Brothers for butchering their classic, but at least I know that the equipment still works on a new OS, lol?

The Tentative Score (another WIP)

TENTATIVE SCORE (another WIP)

I composed this on a whim for a film competition as an undergraduate at DLSU-M. It was a Siemen’s competition, those who participated were given the latest cell phone by Siemens and were asked to make a short film with it. I believe I just shot random people along my commute to and from campus, then recorded this on (literally) my piano, then did some minor post-production and embedded this song as the track so that I wouldn’t have to deal with shady dialogue recording and audio imbalance, haha. It almost (almost) sounds like an old recording. I will say that this was circa 2003-2004.

I’ve been thinking of reworking this, I’ve come up with a bit of an extension but, as usual, I can’t seem to finish the things I start.

Wonderful Tonight (Looper Test)

This is a sample of my guitar looper. Apparently Wonderful Tonight, when covered by myself, has no bridge, lol.

This is a tentative theme that’s a work in progress for a screenplay that is also a work in progress, lol.
