Jesse Screed

yo sloop

you are a musically prodigious sort

and you wear your heat on your sleeve

that is why i love what you do,

but just imagine that your's is one view among many

especially in the land of the free

in my simple understanding

god should bless us all

and we are all blessed

would you not agree

but I digress

if you post it

you own it

never apologize for something that  you feel

there may be many or few

that feel as you do

and nobody will know what you mean exactly

but i do believe this

99% of we want to be free

but more than that

we want to be given an opportunity

but opportunities come few and far between

unless you make them yourself

and then who is to say that any

one cares besides you

so post your vibes

and let them be as they are

you have you

and that is all that should matter

Where will the kids not go when they don't want to buy our mp3's?

 

Who are these kids you speak of, and whose mp3 are they buying?  I can't even get my Mother to listen to my music let alone my friends buying it. 

But since you asked, I will say that they will go to Djibouti, East Africa, to pound salt at Lake Assal.

nice,

I could have sworn that I was listening to Jesse Ed Davis, like from his "keep Me Coming" album,

I love your voice for that reason alone. but enough for comparisons.

You have a cool sound.

Who are your influences, just curious

also got a chance to listen to Gentle hours of Evening, and Crawl.

definitely something very cool going on here.

Move to New York, get some players,  and put your shingle out in the dives, you might be surprised.

The thing that stuck me most in the article was

"By far the most rewarding part of the journey has been the support of a vibrant and growing community of new users and long time supporters, who have made a home in our new discussion forums."

I have to say that I am not really noticing the growing "community" of new users.  When I step over to the bandlab site I see crazy busy activity, but I have no idea how many of those users know about CbB.  When I come to the CbB forum it seems like a fantastic brew pub with a terrible location.  Practically Everybody who is there  raves about the quality, but there are a lot of empty tables.

I am not sure how airing the dirty laundry of the past helps promote the product other than exhibiting the persistence of the platform.  I would have liked to see the article extol the virtues more staunchly, instead of the simple bullet list under "What does Cakewalk look Like Now?"

Otherwise, it was great to see CbB get a nod outside of the enclave.  I have only used one other DAW, and that was Adobe Audition, but they do not support midi platform in any significant way (it is a great wave editor).   I love Cakewalk DAW, I dabbled with others, but I'll dance with the girl that brung me

Anyway,  that's my little squeak, germane or not.

Abull, you are a song smith

really nice arrangement

lots of real cool elements weaving in and out.

this is top notch in the sense that not only does it have your style it is just very well constructed.

every song I comment on in the song forum has something that stands out, it could be the emotion, it could be the urgency, it could be individual instrumental talent, or it could be the overall talent.

I could tear this song apart and comment on each  8 bars, because there is something going on in each segment.

I think everyone should listen very close to this song and notice the nuances.

I think this would make a great theme song for a quirky netflix sitcom, you know, a dysfunctional family with  separated  spouses and the man starts to hit the bottle after he finds out she found someone who tickled her fancy more that he ever could.

outstanding!

Mr. Furry man, I loved it.  I am glad t see you do something like this.

Yes, very dark, and dense. 

It was like going backwards

in slow motion

on an upside down roller coaster

in the dark

and the attendant has left the gate at the queue

for a tete a tete

with the bearded fat lady

and all the while my mother has put out an amber alert

for her kitty kat

that is sleeping in a shoe box

in the basement bedroom closet

LOVED IT

i.o.h

she came to me in the middle of a dream and asked if she could do as she pleased and i said go ahead,

hello, please tell me which one is better.

I know that both versions are veryy gritty, and i can clean it up,

but one is bigger  just let me know

i lose my way at 1:40, i think, but if you hang on until 3:00 there is some coll effect

please excuse the long fade out

From the demos, Carbon Electra sounds really good. I've no need for any more synths at this point though

Don't kid yourself, you do eed more synths.  A synth a day keeps the doctor away.

idk

Maybe this one did a u-turn and headed back into the womb. 🕵

Not exactly, I remixed this, which I guess could be going back into the womb, then I  went to soundclick to "replace" the first version with a new one, and for some reason the new version won't play.  I'm still trying to figure it out.

How about "Xote?" (Pronounced "Ho-tay" of course!)

Then he could be donkey Xote.  😀

Yes, I asked the donkey, he likes it.  He said to tell you that you are an all powerful sentient force.  To everyone else, donkey liked the suggestions, but he felt they did not make him feel like the donkey he really is, if you know what he means.

Yep, my new donkey is a bit windy,

It was all good at first.

He lead the way, like he knew where to go,

but then he would stop every fifty feet to nibble leaves off the shrubs along the path.

that;s ok I thought, we all need to eat.

but then my donkey started ripping off some scuds.

The first one about knocked me out, it was so bad I thought I could taste it.

so I ran ahead of my donkey, and then the wind changed.

the only saving grace is that when my donkey lets fly, there is an uproarious sound

like the trumpets of Jerricho

so I can pretty much maneuver around to avoid the noxious fumes.

this could be a long haul.

I want to name my donkey

does anybody have any suggestions?

Yes...you get some of the ST4 sounds with SE also...so you'll still have your 3 sounds, plus
whatever 4 SE gives you...

I seriously considered this, but when I looked at the new sounds it was a lot of electronic drums, basses, and synths, a few pianos and a spattering of guitars.  Nothing really jumped out at me.  I have sample tank 3,  and will sit this one out.

HOBBLING A LLAMA

It was Dr.Charmian Wright, a Vet and camel-trainer from Utah, USA, who first described to me the calming effect of putting a hobble on a camelid. Frankly, I did not believe her, at least, I did not think it could work for llamas, but I was persuaded to have a go. The design I came up with, involved a webbing cuff around each fetlock incorporating a D-ring sitting in the hollow at the back. A belt was then passed from ring to corresponding ring, across the withers. The llama was asked to kush and the slack taken up so that he could only "stand" on his knees. At this point another belt was threaded through the bent knees and passed over the withers. When tightened, the llama was completely immobile.

 I wish it was that easy.  Bernice was broke down, so she was put down.  She was a sweet llama bernice was.  I might have to try your technique on my new donkey, he likes to ramble,

I was so close.

She went lame on the loose shale.

Had to put her down, not easy with a penknife.

But there are vultures everywhere,

not even before Bernice had bled out

punk tries to sell me a wild ***** colt

I'm not much for donkeys

but the mouth bit seems to keep him in line

so I give punk a stale crust of bread and a dollar two eighty

punk laughs

me and the wild ***** colt limp along

towards the top

I sure do miss me. Bernice, she had a nice mustache.
