RoughMix 147 - Scratch Pop and Ham

The cast about how music is made.... I was playing around with a kind of scratching sound on the guitar and decided to experiment with some other effects. By effects I do not mean anything electronic. I mean doing gimmicky things on the guitar itself, likes this kind of scratch, some popping (where I place a thumb under a guitar string, pull it up and let it snap back to the fretboard) and a few other things. Effects, gimmicks and tricks do not make a song, but they can be tools to help the c...

RoughMix 144 - Jazz Slap

The cast about how music is made.... This time around I am using a tool that churns things up a bit. I play predominantly the acoustic guitar. I tried this time to record playing things in a different way than I usually do. Differently stylistically, rhythmically and different guitar tricks, and you can hear that is this short clip recorded mono on my Palm Tungsten.

RoughMix 141 - Must Be Something More

The cast about how music is made.... Sorry that it has taken so long since the last post. It is not for lack of music, but for lack of time to create the cast from the raw data. This episode is one where I am intentionally raw, also vocally. I am actually trying to make my material rougher for the cast so that we continually get at the main point, that music starts out rough before it ever gets to its polished presentable format.

RoughMix 140 - Twitter Tune

The cast about how music is made....This cast episode happened as an aside. I was playing the guitar and scanning the computer for messages and came upon some twitter notes, and I started to sing and play making up lyrics as I went. It is an exercise I try to do sometimes to see if I can do it, but I almost never actually record itas by the time I notice it is happening it is already gone. This time I had the Palm Tungsten running and was able to capture it. The focus of this episode is on the ...

RoughMix 132 - Sunday Morning Tune

I am not a morning person, but sometimes the muse strikes at strange unpredictable times. This episode of RoughMix, 132, was a tune that came to me early on a Sunday morning, hence the name "Sunday Morning Tune" for the episode. It is a very short episode, intending only to highlight the idea of capturing the muse when it strikes even if it is at a time not normal to you. I am of course eager to hear from you. For such a large audience it is amazing that so little feedback comes. This will wor...

RoughMix 131 - We're Waiting (For Mommy to Come Home)

My wife had been out for awhile and my daughter was starting to complain about it. "When will mommy come home?" was the question. So to distract and ease the delay I came up with a little tune which is featured in today's episode of RoughMix 131 "We're Waiting (for Mommy to Come Home.)". It did not occur to me at the time, but this is actually a tool I use in writing songs - taking something current, happening at a moment and trying to create a little melody line around it. That is what happe...

RoughMix 130 - Uganda Choir Coming

My daughter woke up today and the very first thing she said was, "Daddy, today we are going to see the Uganda choir!" Sensing her excitement I broke into a silly song and a chorus quickly appeared. I decided to capture it on the guitar and played it a few times. I stopped playing it as I realized that I should actually be recording this for RoughMix or else it would no longer be rough, so here is the initial thinking on the tune. In this episode I also deliver the promised live version of "Wor...

RoughMix 129 - Work for Him

A close friend was asked to give a sermon, and it was to be about having personal time with God, and about the difference between working for God and simply being with God. He asked if I might write a song for the event. This was less than a week by when the song would need to be done, so I said no. Then later the day after I had an idea for some lyrics and I started to jot them down on my computer without having a single idea as to what music might be connected to it whatsoever. I wrote down t...

RoughMix 128 - Garden Thoughts

I was limited in my ability to record. I took this time to take a few minutes of solitude to record these thoughts (I was interrupted 3 minutes after I ended this recording.) In this episode I have placed 2 roughs: * Castle Ruins (which runs about 1:20) * 1234 321 I am reporting more of the reality of songwriting. It is seldom clean and broadcast friendly.

RoughMix 127 - You May Smell Funny (but I love you so)

There is a constant danger of taking ourselves too seriously in all that we do. This is also true in songwriting. So it is sometimes a good idea to just go ahead and be silly, and that is what this episode, number 127, of RoughMix is all about. I was giving my daughter a hug, and she had an unusual smell in her hair, so I told her that she smelled funny. I immediately realized that although I had not meant it so, it could have hurt her feelings, so I followed it up quickly with the words,"but I...

RoughMix 126 - Bring Me Back Rehearsal - the cast about how music is made

Writing music is the first step. For many that is enough. For me, I want to usually work it out with a band, to draw upon the creative juices of others and to hear it a bit closer to what I hear in my head but cannot produce myself, because I can only sing, play guitar and create percussion (and even this not all at once - and the live part of it all is not to be underestimated.) This is a rehearsal with my German band [Steffi Weiss - keys/vocals; Petra Wolfsperger - recorder; Christian Mees - ...

RoughMix 125 - Acoustic Airs

Sometimes the best thing you can do is to simply sit down and play without a plan, without any goals, and see what happens. As in most cases this got recorded on my Palm Tungsten, which is almost always with me - which makes it a good tool for capturing spontaneity. I had a listen to this clip afterwards and heard that I had a few elements that could be of use: * some tapping * some harmonics * some rhythm change-ups Most importantly, to keep it rough I was not afraid of making m...

Some times it feels good just to hit things - added bonus if that is a guitar that results in sounds you like. That was in any case the attempt represented in this episode of RoughMix which I am calling slap therapy. Listen in on the clip, recorded on the Palm Tungsten and you hear why I chose this as a title. My tip this time around is to let things run awhile.
