Music: Benjamin Bernstein '10

So this is a demo of an idea that I've been turning over for a few days. Since it's miles away from done, I thought I'd use this as a forum for suggestion. I think I'd eventually like to turn this into a song for my band, Decora. I also think it would sound alot better with live drums. There are two samples used here, a bell hit from a Dan Deacon song, and some pitch bent "ooohs" from the Dirty Projectors.

Music: Max Horwich '08

Max Horwich, recording under the name Sewing Machines, has recently finished an EP entitled "More Songs about Weather and Cigarettes," featuring 3 original compositions and covers of Tom Waits and Daniel Johnston. Fun fact: the electric guitar used on this recording was salvaged from a burned down house (you can hear the charred woodgrain). Download the whole thing here.

Fishing Waves: I was craving to use my sampler, so I sampled parts from Wave by Antonio Carlos Jobim and Fish in the Millpond by the Watson Family. Everything is sampled except for the drum beat.

Catskill Instrumental: I live in the Catskills, and this is an instrumental. Solo bass, no overdubs.

"Tokushima hints at being very hot at night. Even at my jet-lagged earliest, lilting down the stairs in the quiet pre-dawn, there is no lull to be found. Instead, I am greeted by the twin muffled glows of a green-lit mossy aquarium and my host father’s morning cigarette, lazy between his fingers as he leans against the counter, yet to turn on a light. The air remains thick and muggy like I could choke on it."
