Reason 7 has just been announced by Propellerhead. Among it's many new features will be the ability to send MIDI out to external hardware!Time to knock the dust of some of my great hardware synths and controlling them with Reason's amazing sequencer. Looking forward to using my Yamaha DX100, Yamaha Motif Rack XS, Korg X5DR, and the Roland MC-303 in many of my songs. Can't wait! =) |

John Paul Hodge is one of the best vocalists I know! We met in Fort Collins, CO where we worked together doing stagehand work. I learned of John's music through his band the Dirt Boys and I had the awesome opportunity to play/program synth tracks for a show with the group at FoCoMX. That was our first time getting to work on music together. When I moved back to Virginia, we decided to collaborate via the interwebs.
John has an amazing, very soulful voice and is versatile in his music stylings (having sung rock/pop, country, as well as vocals for a Rage Against the Machine cover band). He was looking for something different with this project. I sent him some tracks and he came up with some great stuff pretty quickly! We recorded "Lock Your Head" and "Fall For You" at his studio during my visit to Fort Collins this past May. John recently recorded the vocals for "Sky Lights." Anything with his vocals on it is instantly made one hundred times better (in my opinion)! These tracks are still to be considered demos due to the nature that they were recorded as ideas and as demos for John to listen to himself in order to build upon/to make changes before laying down final tracks. So, it's pretty cool that you get to hear them now, right? =) And the benefit for us is that you let us know what you think!

During Thanksgiving, my 5-year-old niece, Zelda was visiting. She got on the mic and freestyled a couple songs to some tracks I quickly threw together.
The first one we did, she got a good hook going lol. It's pretty catchy! We're not sure if some of the lyrics are from something else, but if you can pinpoint them—let me know!
She sang to a live pitch correction effect (I didn't assign notes to her voice except for the harmonizing towards the end—She came up with the vocal melodies).
I asked her what she wanted to call the song, and without hesitation she decided on "Star Pony." The second song we did she asked me to make her sound more like a boy (so she could sing about what boys sing about) lol. In this song, there's more than one girl she'd like to inform that she thinks is pretty... Meanwhile expressing how handsome she is.
"You and you are pretty and I'm so handsome and that is all." What more do the ladies need to know? Lol. Enjoy! =)
