I’m in the process of tweaking a laptop-based live looping setup, using Reaper, my new Novation SL Mkii MIDI controller, and my Behringer FCB1010 MIDI foot controller.
I have a couple of mp3 demos to share with you that demonstrate what a (pseudo)live set might sound like. Note that I kind of cheated with these mp3s, in the sense that I’m not actually recording the parts live as you hear them. I used my live looping setup to record them, but what you’re hearing is me live-arranging the parts that I previously recorded. Once I make recording parts more efficient (and actually practice a few sets), I’ll be sure to mix down completely live-recorded demos, possibly with some YouTubage.

Online music store is live!
Okay, so I finally have an online music store. I was going to create my own, almost from scratch, but I’ve decided to instead use the store provided by bandcamp.com. I only have two tracks up for now, but I plan on adding more.
Free downloads are available for 128k mp3s. If you want a higher quality download (or if you’re just feel like supporting my music), then you can name your price for the higher quality download ($0.50 or up).
