Store Window Reality

This song was originally written as a poem when I was about 15 years old [a long, long time ago (Fall of 1969?)]. It got a remake / re-do in the early summer of 2001 as a cyberpunk track.

 The plucked sounds I programmed using FL Studio. The Guitar is a processed loop of my Mitchell Acoustic [made in japan Martin D-28 clone] Guitar. The vocal effects are from Antares Auto-tune tweaking the vocal pitch... before it became a wide spread vocal processing tool.

I remastered it again today from the original mix files. The mix was put together in Sony Acid Pro and Mixed down with Sony Sound Forge 10.  You can find an MP3 of it HERE.

A Season Is Set for Everything

Sometimes I am overcome with hubris and attempt to do things I probably should not. Below is my take on Ecclesiastes Chapter 3... which you have probably have heard as Pete Seeger's "Turn, Turn, Turn". Obviously I'm not Pete Seeger.

I wrote this on  a long, long Yom Kippur day after having attended a break-the-fast. It was officially the Eleventh Day of Tishri, 5768 [2007]. I suppose that some time I will repost a essay about that particular day... but not today.

You can find a passable Mp3 recording of the song HERE. It was recorded with an M-Audio Microtrack 24/96 and then edited and mastered in Sound Forge.

The lyrics can be found over on my writings blog "Falling Thru Reality" which is where this was originally was posted.
