Something I wrote last night, but it wasn't great. So today i've prodded it in a different direction and it sounds like this:
Voices by mgarthaudio
Annoyingly i'm using a KeyRig 49 midi keyboard, which by no means is bad, but it's not a real piano or at least a full size weighted keyboard. Still, one of these days i might get a sustain pedal for it, or get a place to live where i can have my actual digital piano which sounds suberb.
Still, reverb solves everything right? Wash it out, let it soak through...

Human Future
The two vocoder samples and the drum loop supplied lovingly by MusicRadar free samples, then simply adding time and synthesizers, this was made:

Bournemouth
Hi,
I was in Bournemouth this weekend. It's quite nice there, met some interesting people too.
Today, I've been at home catching up on doing nothing... so I grabbed the old DS and wrote another jam:
Weathered by mgarthaudio
It's not what I intended to make, the second half I like a lot, but wrote it in the same save slot as the first half so I kinda just melted them together. Don't know why it's called weathered though...
It's a live recording, hence why some of it sounds wrong, but it's only for fun and to inspire myself to do something. In this case, it's something to do with a sawtooth oscillator and making a killer buzzy bass synth.
I wish i had an interface, like the DS-10, as a MIDI controller for using all the stuff I have on my computer rather than limiting myself to the Korg DS-10. There are some MIDI applications for the Nintendo DS that use the wireless function of the DS, for remote control. But I don't have the homebrew gear... yet... hmm
Anyway, it's been quite a nice day off just to rewind.

My Guild Wars 2 Entry
Here's a video I put together for the Guild Wars 2 Ambassador competition.
The music is by Jeremy Soule and some of the video clips are from the GW2 trailers. The GW1 video clips, i.e. the monk, I recorded. Took a while trying to get smooth movement and sweeps considering my frame rate was at best 16fps (HD3470 laptop graphics card).
The poem/speech was written and recorded by myself. Have listen:
It's been a couple of months since i blogged, but all is going well. Busy but well. I've finally got my DS-10 back so i've been playing with that, as well as being busy at work. Operation Flashpoint has been released (a couple of weeks ago) so that was all very exciting, it won't be too long before DiRT3 hits the shelves. You should check out the Codemasters website for more details on DiRT3!
Anyway, i must get up and going.
Have a good day
