🎵 Output before Input #54 - 2022.03.06
Minor seconds are some of the hardest intervals to play on the guitar, especially stacked (and sometimes even inverted), but the payoff is always interesting (to me, at least).
🎵 Output before Input #53 - 2022.03.06
Again challending myself to “hit record first” and just start playing.
🎵 Output before Input #52 - 2022.03.04
This was a relatively rare morning where I didn’t play a single note before hitting record.
🎵 Output before Input #51 - 2022.02.28
A chord progression that takes inspiration from Hendrix’ “Hey Joe”.
🎵 Output before Input #50 - 2022.02.27
I’m not sure how far I thought I was going to take this, but 50 seems like a milestone! I’m celebrating with this incredibly soft, rounded, understated melody. Look: I don’t control what comes out - when you roll out of bed + pick up a guitar, what happens: happens.
These garden ties are by far the best computer cable ties I’ve ever found. They can be cut to a perfect length, they’re easy on the hands, they clamp quickly, and they’re incredibly cheap relative to computer-specific ties.
🎵 Output before Input #49 - 2022.02.26
Woke up with a melody and turned it jazzy. Feels kind of frantic though.
🎵 Output before Input #48 - 2022.02.25
Experimenting with related tonality through close harmonic structures. Which could probably be the title of the entire series.
🎵 Output before Input #47 - 2022.02.25
Gradually degrading what should be a pleasant two-chord rhythm.
🎵 Output before Input #46 - 2022.02.24
The tremolo sound here was inspired by Noga Erez’ “You So Done” from “Kids (Against the Machine)” which was in my head when I woke up.
