Happy 4th

For some reason, this weekend has gone by really slow. I'm not complaining about that by any means. It's hot a hell outside and I really no desire to be in it. I mean, people seem to think it's ok to spontaneously break out in sweat, but to break out in song ... you're fucked up.

So -- I indulged myself a little this weekend and bought some hardware that allows me to hook my piano up to my mac and record stuff via GarageBand. I'm still learning -- and for some reason, everything records mostly mono -- Monstly meaning the left channel is super-quiet, tho it is there. So after some crafty fidgeting, i took the mp3 into another app, removed the left channel, and replaced the left with a duplicate of the right.

I did this last nite at 2:30 am. So -- here is my first song -- with one take --

Somewhere Over The Rainbow

UPDATE:
Look, I did one more -- this isn't perfect. First try on this one.
La Dispute (from Amelie)
