This is a cover I just made of a Josh Rouse song called “Quiet Town” which is the first cut off his 2005 album “Subtitulo.”

For some reason I’m in cover mode, or mostly just practice mode with recording and working in Garageband. I really have to get an interface for the computer. I can’t stand working with this BOSS BR-1600 anymore. The screen is tiny. But I do like going into the closet to record with the condensor mic. Feels like I’m going into the “studio.” Feels like I’m doing some work. It’s relaxing.

Silver & Gold by spickeringlr

Listen on iPhone

One day we were old
The next day we’re young
These dreams we’ve been told
Are made of silver and gold.

Life is a highway
Whose car we don’t own
Whose car that we drove
Through the blue and the gold.

Baby I’ll fly tonight
Maybe I’ll fly tonight

You’re goin’ my way
And I’m goin’ home
To these places we’ve grown
In the Silver and Gold.

This flag we have flown
In the wind it’ll blow
In the stars it’ll glow
Through the blue and the Gold.

Baby I fly tonight
Baby I cry tonight
Maybe I fly tonight
Ahaaa, haaa, haaaa

Man, I’m getting tired of this song too. I’m mostly obsessing over it, not because I love the song so much, but because I’m trying different things with Garageband and trying to see in my mind if I can make a professional sounding recording out of it. This is important to the back of my mind, the creative part. Whether to march forward or learn a new program. For this mix I’m testing Wire Tap as an exporter, as I haven’t been happy with Garageband’s “share” feature, as far as how the final mixdown sounds.

I’ve been messing with this song for a few days in Garageband. I put a beat in there and some loops. I cut 6 vocal tracks thinking I’d take the best of each one and mix it down and then at the last minute, or maybe I was just being lazy, I decided to see what it sounded like with all 6! It’s different, kind of 60’sish, but trying different things is fun, keeps the creative juices flowing.
