When I’m not holding down the fuzzed out, fucked up low send in The Loyalists, I have some occasional musical inclinations that lean toward something different.
I started work on this mellow little joint last year, and got lost along the way (not that there’s much to it to get lost in, but that’s just how life goes). I jumped back on it this weekend, and spit out this two-minute jam.
The drums are programmed — because I don’t have anything like an MPC right now to sample and chop sounds — but I played the bass and guitar, though an Ampeg V4B, and did the recording and mixing through a Presonus Firebox into GarageBand on an iPad Pro. The result is pretty rough, but the process was fun, and I think the tune is too...
