ABOUT

Unless otherwise noted - all guitars, bass guitars, drum programming, and synthesizers and SFX done by me. Yamaha Bass Guitar, PRS Custom SE, Ibanez Jiva10, Gibson Studio, Fender Strat (used only on T-Rex so far), Roli Soundblocks and Seaboard, Reaper DAW, Ugritone Drums VST, Surge Synth, Marshall, Mesa Boogie, and Roli Dashboard.

NEWEST TRACK: "Pushing Me Away" (cover) by Linkin Park. Super rough mix as I literally just finished learning all the parts and recording all the parts. I'm working to polish this one more than any other track and am also working on a surprise LP track. Stay Tuned. (AI vox extract featuring Mike and Chester)

"Everlong" (cover) by The Foo Fighters. Free Sound Effects from FreesoundO R G - the crowd cheering. Dave Grohl singing (thanks AI!). Not quite finished as there's some octave work after the bridge that I need to nail down better. But I did just learn the song like 3 days ago... and 1 day of that was programming those RIDICULOUSLY awesome drums.

"I'm So Sick" (cover) by Flyleaf. Programmed drums by Doc Artslop (I didn't pick his name :p) and I did the bass and guitars. Flyleaf vox extracted with AI for effect and laid in for structure.

"Still Into You" (cover) by Paramore. Vocals by Hayley Williams AI removed from original song and used for effect.

"Rise Above This" cover by Seether - uses AI extracted vox from original song. Did this as a favor and a track for a possible new friend.

"The Reason" (cover) by Hoobastank. Currently uses AI vox extracted. For another singer person - hopefully we can replace this with his vocals soon.

***To be 100% clear - when I learn a song by someone else - I often do it by ear.*** (That said tho, work smarter not harder.)

I was thinking about doing something more Orchestic to make myself stand out - should I do the "Pacific Rim Main Theme?" :)

Tall girl guitar player thinking about playing with people again. Sold my half stack when I moved back from California to VT but I have replaced it with a similar setup but what I really consider an upgrade - still have my rack gear - lets face it - a Yamaha SPX90 is hard to get rid of. I like controlled screaming mixed with smoother vocals, and a variety of rhythmic rap styles. A BIG FAN OF THE MULTIPLE SINGER MODEL (I.E. Linkin Park, Lacuna Coil etc). Not really into the __constant__ guttural/screamo type vocals though. I like it though when it mixes into other kinds of vocal expressions.

**Numb, Castle Of Glass, Given Up, T-Rex, and Los Angeles will be re-posted when they are better finished. I have enough decent demos for now.**

EQUIPMENT

My main guitar is a Black Gibson studio and my "violet" PRS. My main Bass Guitar is a decent sounding but still cheap Yamaha. I have midi gear for sequencers and all that as well.

Mostly, I'm looking to make original music with a regular group eventually but for now I'd be fine with collabs on covers and originals especially if we can do it the "youtube" way and make videos of each project.
