ALWAYS a Love Song?

I'm super-annoyed at how tough it is to actually NOT write a love song... Or on the flip-side, it's insanely easy to write a generic pop or rock love song with little-to-no depth. Basically, I want to do everything BUT love songs- at the same, though, I want to avoid making all of my music have tons..

Mikeing a cab

I was shooting video at an open air set for a local band today. While I was tucked in behind the drummer to try to get some interesting shots, I noticed that the bass actually sounded better coming from the back of the bass cab than it did from the front. So, has anybody miked the back of a cab for ..

Ringo Deserves More Credit

I have always liked The Beatles and the way they changed the world. I have been face-to-face with all four of them before, and am going to see Ringo's band in a couple of weeks. Ringo does not get enough credit. He brought a new playing style to rock, and The Beatles would have sounded very differen..

Drawing vs. Painting

I've perceived that some artists sing better with minimal accompaniment ... while others sing better only with instrumental 'collaborations'. IOWs, I know I can PAINT a portrait exceedingly well, but I never can DRAW a portrait of any beauty. OTOH, Other portrait artists can't paint ... but their ch..

LCR Panning

Just a thought... regarding 'LCR Panning' - the theory that one should only pan FAR left or FAR right or keep it in the middle. Nothing else.... Am I correct when I say that many software synth patches are constructed so that they are not completely 'centered'? Meaning for example, when I pan a s..
