My last album - give a listen, or just steal it!

[pedalboy]

Hey guys. After trying to actually SELL my last album (didn't work out so well...), I decided to let it all go on the net for free, so spread the love. And please give me some constructive criticism on anything you feel like. Here's the link:

My solo project is called Pedalboy, and the album is called The Falling Action. Pretty much all recorded with a 57, an NT1, and NT5's in a homestudio and a dorm room, but i'm definitely open to more criticism than "sounds great for what you had to work with." Thanks all.

Hello,

i am curious what you used for drum sounds since it seems like you have a mostly portable setup?

[pedalboy]

Most of my stuff is "portable" (tell that to me when I'm moving it across campus!) but when I want drums I can take the sessions or a mixdown to the studios on campus and record them there. But here's what i used one what songs:

1) keyboard and a loop from hitting a strings of a broken piano with a brush
2) an acid loop run through some distortion with a live drummer over it, miked with kick, snare and mono overhead.
3) A grungy loop i don't remember where I got it, and drums from the keyboard's "industrial" setting.
4) TONS of live toy percussion and a timpani sample. I got a $20 snare drum at sam ash from some sale they had and I have a cheap toy tom-tom in there somewhere too, toy symbals, a washboard, tapping on the guitar body, stuff like that.
5) no drums
6) korg triton
7) no drums
8) no drums
9) fruity loops and effected keyboard drums.
