Peckles October 26, 2008 Share Peckles Member October 26, 2008 A few tunes for you to listen to when you should be doing other things. Like saving babies from burning buildings. Or endangering babies with burning buildings. An ode to bathroom acoustics: Toilet Overture A song that isn't really about sheep: Sheep A song about being lazy: Lethal Lethargy The only collaboration I've ever done: My Song My latest one: Inhibitions Kind of fun one: The Luck I Have An intentionally cheesy song written upon request: Eyelashes The burning babies can wait. Enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peckles October 26, 2008 Author Share Peckles Member October 26, 2008 Thanks guys. I use Cubase 4 with an MBox 2 Pro. The list of instruments/plugins that I use (off the top of my head) are RealStrat, RealGuitar, Absynth, FM8, and Sampletank, Guitar Rig 2, CSR (reverb), Cubase's built in delay (I need a better one), T-Racks, various EQs whose names and designs I can't recall.

shaftiel October 27, 2008 Share shaftiel Member October 27, 2008 I liked them, very smart tongue in cheek lyrics. Even though my hate for you burns as brightly as ever, and liquefied hatred flows through my veins at the very thought of you, I was pleasantly surprised.

Peckles October 28, 2008 Author Share Peckles Member October 28, 2008 Never really got in to Cakewalk/Sonar. Apart from Cubase, I use Reason quite a bit. The last song I listed up there is made with Reason. Used ProTools a lot in school, but I rarely use it at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cubase ftw!! lol, the part about the bass guitar was sarcasm, right? hehehe I've used Audition extensively, a little bit of pro tools, lots of garage band, and just touched cubase once. I've also seen/used many other knockoffs that suck big time and cost $10. But definitely audition the most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peckles December 3, 2008 Author Share Peckles Member December 3, 2008 Here's a new one. I'm a fan of puns, so here's a pun-overload. Still working on the transition near the end, and I just recorded it now, so it's pretty rough, but I have to go to work soon anyways, and this sentence is really, really long. The lyrics are pretty safe. Sinking Relationships Lyrics: I used to date a cashier, but she started to change. I used to date a singer, but I was out of her range. I used to date a webpage builder, and she was quite the sight. And I used to date a NASCAR driver, but nothing ever went right. I used to date an archaeologist, but I didn't really dig her, Because she said that after all the bones she'd found, she hoped mine would be bigger. I was in a threesome with a dentist and a manicurist, But I had to fight them tooth and nail for any attention-ist, yeah. Yeah, I used to be in these relationships, and they really made me think, That they're exactly like the name implies, and they're only going to sink, And though I tried real hard, it never worked out, but what did I expect, I'm like that pilot whose backup chute didn't unfurl, just another reject. I used to date a leper, but things slowly fell apart. And I used to date a cardiac surgeon, and I loved her with all my heart. I used to date a baker, but she didn't need me enough. I used to date a dog fanatic, but she played a little rough. I used to date an arborist, and she really grew on me, But I think she must've gotten bored and so she decided to leave. I used to date a yoga instructor, and it was pretty great, Except one tiny thing would go wrong and she'd get all bent out of shape. Yeah, I used to be in these relationships, and they really made me think, That they're exactly like the name implies, and they're only going to sink, And though I tried real hard, it never worked out, but what did I expect, I'm like that pilot whose backup chute didn't unfurl, just another reject. SOLO I used to date a harpist, but she turned out to be a liar/lyre. I used to date an insomniac driver, but her eyes, they looked so tired. I used to date a mortician, but she would always be late. And then one time I went out with an orchard worker, but it only lasted one date. I used to date a ballerina, but in the end there was no point(e). And I used to date an evil CEO, but she'd always dis-appoint. I used to date a demolitionist, and she was one dynamite lady. And then I used to date a cave dweller, but her past, it was too shady. Yeah, I used to be in these relationships, and they really made me think, That they're exactly like the name implies, and they're only going to sink, And though I tried real hard, it never worked out, but what did I expect, I'm like that pilot whose backup chute didn't unfurl, just another reject. I used to date a wonderful girl, but it wasn't meant to last, It's like I went to see the dragster race; it was over way too fast. And now my heart is cracked and broken and I don't know what to do, I guess I'll date an arts and crafts expert, I hear they're good with glue, Good with glue.
