i freaked. but then everything was okay.


ur lookin at the new llb set up. show on thanksgiving at the firebird. 9pm. get ready.

have you ever asked your self: "why? why? why? why? why? why? why? why? why?" and never been able to come up with an answer? i sure have. and have you ever stared at a word long enough to where it eventually just looks weird? i sure have.

"natural kingdom"

i shouldve kept my cap on
but i found it to be true
for you, to be someone who is very cool
and i thought that this went well
but i guess
sometimes
i always do

always..

and you never seem to get cold.

just a writing

for the past couple months
dreams have been all that ive been after
but everynight
i lie in bed

i turn to my right
i turn to my right
i turn to my right
i turn to my right

and im right back to where i started to try and fall, and dream
of a scene, where it would be just us
cos all ive got for awhile are memories.

lets try and mix things up tonight

i turn to my left and i close my eyes, gently i lay, but as i lay i realize, im lookin up at bowed springs, above, deep sighs..

i turn to my left
i turn to my left
i turn to my left and i rise

not to the hall cos my mouth is so dry
and not to the shower cos my my skin is dry too

but up and out where i cant even speak, or move, or breathe, and thats all right with me, cos at least ill get some sleep..

the death of auto tune

its done!
and theres no auto-tune!

im afraid im not going to be able to put it up for download, cos this thing is legit. no more demos. this is the album, son.

but the good news is that if you are in the same vicinity as me ill listen to it with you. so theres that.

other good news: all the songs from the demos are getting remade and released as singles. maybe. i havnt really decided yet. but thats the game plan. and hopefully those will be free dl baby. their definitely getting remade tho.

some words about the record:
i dont think ive ever been more proud and just like "wow. i made that. how?" in my life.
i recorded it in 3 days. but took a break on day 2. sooo. it took me about 2 days work and lack of sleep to record all this.
me and uncle daddy are teamin up to make factorize/divide go places other than graham street.
no auto tune!
i recorded everything on a tascam dp 004 four track from my sampler and just kept bouncing the tracks to layer em.
im completely freaked right now cos its been exporting from my fourtrack for about 10 years. great.
its 30 - 2 minutes long. give or take some ticks.

cant wait to get the ball rollin.

are in progress.

maxs piano

finding it now
makes me wonder why i ever wanted it at all
your hands move, your head does too
while im learning

you should take longer to put on that sweatshirt

to give me some time to think
and drift down
but im asleep
and i dont even know it
every time my tongue slips
i start to lose my grip on
how much i used to think

you should take longer to knock on my door

and when you do, ill be around
and follow you down
even if its the last thing i want to do

the album is bare bones

hey.

just finished up recording all samples for the record. its taking me two cards this time around. oh shit! im really really physched on basicly all the songs i got. i dont really know what the finished product will sound like. right now its just a bunch of partly started songs that will hopefully end up being a coherent album thru and thru. thats my goal anyway. it shouldnt be to long.

heres some working titles to look at.

album in the works

yo.
the album is coming.

Friday, June 11, 2010

so heres the deal.

hey all.
there are a few reasons why i havnt been updating this thing. the most major one being that i dont have a computer to call my own right now. and the second most major is that i moved out of my house. so that had me away from the comp for a little while.

anyway. i still dont have a computer. just a friends, but im hoping i can get some stuff done on this thing in the coming months.

me and my friend peter linck started an email record label called lamesauce. we are really really really excited about it. and i have already released a demo with 13 new songs on it. if you want it, you have to email lamesauceislame@gmail.com. just say what up and well send you the download link. its really quite cool.

so far these bands are on it.
learning lab
goodnight, kids
uncle daddy

i know

your warm face
on my hands
reminds me of then

the time you got scared
when your parents had their first fight

your asking me to stay here
i dont see why
your asking me to stay here
i dont see why

when you werent there
cos you thought i had forgotten

i know a place i can go
but sometimes i get scared

+sept 2009 - jan 2010+

come over

when i come over
i feel right at home

+sept 2009 - jan 2010+

the oldies

i car pooled with you
mondays and thursdays
your mom always whistled
to the oldies

its no wonder why

i listen all day
then i get tired
stay up all night
to make the day seem longer
sometimes

does anybody else
like themselves
like i do?

its your own
i dont want to talk about it

+sept 2009 - jan 2010+

on the ground

my feet on the ground
as we take
the long way around

ive got time for you
youve got time
for me
would you like to stay for dinner?

+sept 2009 - jan 2010+

miss you

and its already noon
i turn my head to the cold side
of the pillow

and i miss you
and i
can see you

+sept 2009 - jan 2010+

its funny

on the carpet
on a chair
sometimes i think it isnt fair
youve got it always, but im over here
enuff i suppose

on the carpet and you
jump to your feet
and move in closer, so i cant see
i turn and laugh
its funny to me
how you take these things
so seriously

+sept 2009 - jan 2010+

breath

when we walk
when we talk
when we lie
when we spy

right before you see your own breath
you will see these things appearing
and right before you see your own death
those few things are dissapearing

come over here
and youll see that im alright

ive been running around here
for too long

+sept 2009 - jan 2010+

learning lab demonstration

here is the first demo. these  here is the first demo.songs were written late 2009 and the demo came out jan 2010.

i made about 75 copies or so, passsed it around school, and threw it up online. you can ask me for a hard copy. i promise ill get it to you by 2046. i got a lot of compliments on it which was awesome, but i was just hyped about getting other people to listen to my music for the most part.

tracklist:
i know
come over
the oldies
on the ground
miss you
its funny
breath

heres the download link!
tha jams

and the front cover:

cool stuff that happend: 
colin used "on the ground" for the intro of jet 98, the high school video announcements.
someone used "the oldies" recently in a soccer highlight reel.
at incredibal, pete transistioned into "on the ground" with the ease of an eagle in flight. then people got down.
charlie used "its funny" in a video
i got a comment on "i know" video on youtube, "can i use this in a video?" i should prolly respond to that....

blog?

i guess so.

i figured that its acually like the best thing ever, for keeping things organized.

im going to use this for all my writings. and all my learning lab stuff.

and anything else i wanna post.

and im not using capitals or checking my spelling.
