Harmony is tough to learn but a must in music.

It's coming together.

I talked with Ticharu tonight and we both want to get you involved in one of our projects.

FYI-I'm shopping for webcams tomorrow.

Nab,
If you have a Toneworks Korg Pandora PXR4 digital recording studio you are ready to enter the world of Frappe Dream Gate with Ticharu and I.

Giddy Up!

Aw, thanks, Pete!
I recorded myself playing and singing,
then I opened that file and played it back. When I played it back I hurriedly grabbed my guitar, turned the webcam on, and played and sang again, so I was able to accompany myself. The ingenuity of the technophobe! Been afraid to mess with that Pandora. xoxo :)

Hi Andy, I know I need to learn that Pandora! xoxo

Lisa,
Did you know Freddie Mercury did that over and over and over again for Bohemian Rhapsody to get the multi-layered vocals? Well, not with the webcam but...;)

The principles are the same from one set of gear to the next. Whether it's 4-track or 16 track or computer based unlimited tracks. You're just doing what you JUST did. Layering!
For the next Frappe Dream Gate, I've turned the piece you left words for into a poem, and left instructions for you if you'd like to keep working on this.
I can sample your voice right from the speakers...

Hey you know I could feel your pride when Pete answered your question (the beach?). THAT was cool.

And I was in such a hurry earlier today that I didn't get to tell you how much I like your sound on this. Nice harmonics!

Nabonidus,

My apologies too, for not giving the two of you enough credit to work it out like the adults you are. I'm still a young whipper-snapper who needs to shut up sometimes.

I'm heading over to Pete's blog to delete the post now.

Sorry *sheepish grin*.

Nabonidus,

Well, if anything good came of Danny fighting with you, it inspired me to write something for him. I'm not too sure where it came from... I had this itching in the back of my mind after what he had said.

It's weird, I understand your point of view much better than his (I live in a very similar neighbourhood and watch what you describe)... but something about the way he argued made me want to write.

Come by and let me know if you think I've lost my mind.

:p
