In a moment of boredom I decided to create a [mp3.com](http://mp3.com) site for some of my home recordings. They were just approved and finally accessible. There are still some songs pending but you can get the basic idea. [http://www.mp3.com/quijibo](http://www.mp3.com/quijibo) I play all the instruments on the songs and being that I am only formally trained as a drummer and self taught myself everything else, don’t expect too much. 🙂 Funny thing is, the only thing I don’t play on these is the drums! They are all pre-recorded song files. Please feel free to tell me if you like em, hate em, or just plain wish I would give up music. ---

Perhaps this should have gone in cafe society? If the mods would be so kind? ---

I only got an opportunity to listen to the first three, but I liked them both. The first one, especially (“Unfair”) had a good melody in the chorus. Correct me if I’m way off base, but it sounded heavily Bob Mould-influenced. The third one (“Home”) was a nice change of pace from the first two. Good arrangement, too, mixing up the guitar parts a bit. ---

I just listend to all of them, I liked “transponder” the best – very good groove to it. I like the guitar fill in the first break and really liked the the strummy-guitar overlay thing that came out of that break (I know your influences and they are showing 🙂 ), but I think you could smooth over that transition at around 50 seconds and the closing of the song – those techno fills sounded a little forced. Overall very good, though. “Mood music” and “Pimpwar” both sound like they belong on “GODweenSATAN”. I mean that in a good way. “New day” could easily a be an outtake from either of the first two Folk Implosion albums. Please take my heavily Knob Creek bourbon-influenced opinions FWTW…No way I can do any better and this stuff way pretty fresh. Let me know if you do any more, I’d like to hear it. ---

Thanks for the responses guys. It’s good to hear what others think. A lot of what was said is what I have been thinking actually. I need to do some work on these… > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by pldennison \* > **I only got an opportunity to listen to the first three, but I liked them both.

I like them just fine but don’t think I have been influenced by them. > [@](#): > > \*\*The third one (“Home”) was a nice change of pace from the first two.

Overall very good, though.** I agree 100%. Transponder is probably my favorite instrumental currently and you are right about the transition. Forced is a very good word for it. I keep meaning to go back and fix it but my creativity is only surpassed by my incredible laziness. 🙂 I should have a couple more songs up in the next few weeks if you guys happen back to the site. Thanks for the feedback!
