A bit of self pampering (works situations)

If you are hear looking for music, rest assured you can still be disappointed.

But seeing as though all my in-real-life friends have been somewhat teased by my musical progress without ever really getting a full idea of what the heck is going exactly, I figured it would only be fair to give a sort of overview of what I have done so far and what people might expect in the next couple o' weeks. Phew!

Right now, I have 4 songs written, an idea for a 5th, but none that are upload-able worthy. With most songs I plant o feature with my own vocals, but it's friggin' hard to find a time where everything is quiet in the house (i.e. no one home) and outside the house (i.e. understandably ignorant neighbours). Also, my recording device is an mp3 player. Ho hum! Troubles indeed!

Songs thus far:
Cybele: A 11 minute 30 second Mono inspired string+rock epic that was originally a 4 minute 3 clarinet part song. I have somehow managed this. Coming along well!

Song 2 (also as so far untitled): 5ish minutes, a bit stereotypical and uninspiring but includes a catastrophic meteor shower. Take that as you will.

Light fades (and dreams a dream): 7 minute bi-polar piece that changes half way through from calming and pretty to 'I-wish-my-arms-would-fall-off-to-save-myself-from-hitting-these-damn-keys'. Those who know know what I mean.

A segment from someone's history: Multi-time signatures!! Also more rocky.

Dreamdancer: I think this one has 8 bars written thus far? Includes a Rhodes piano! Whoahs!

What's the plan Fuzz? I hear you possibly ask. I'll probably upload some non-vocal tracks if vocal recording don't work out like I want it to so dearly...do?

....

Anyway, look out for them! Eventually.

Welcome, man/woman.

Hello. Please have a seat. What? No no, standing is fine, but if you feel uncomfortable there are plenty of seats available.

Who am I? I am Adam Falconer a.k.a Fuzz. I would call it my stage name but I don't have stage nor have I ever performed on stage. Nonetheless, that is my artist name. What am I an artist in? Music.

Yes yes, I hear your moans. Another amateur musician on the internet utilising the various software(s) that this day and age presents people like me. 'You must want to be a grand musician! You must lust for glory and fame!', you may say. Not really. I have listened to music for a while, various styles, and wanted to make my own; and I wanted to share it.

So yes, I am another amateur musician posting his works on the internet. The least I can do is to hope you enjoy whatever it is you may hear on this blog.

Which will hopefully be soon.
