Thieves - a missing link?

*Am I far off on this one?

It feels like it could lead into something very well. Don't know what quite yet. Some ideas floating around. Tinkering around like some blimp mechanic.

A lot of the tracks need polishing, that's a given since this is all just being mashed together with my looping pedal. I have a very high chance of becoming overwhelmed when the choice of possibility is presented. Maybe I'll have my new mac by then and it'll be my first project. Though I suspect I may become an electronica junkie right off the bat with all the beats I see you can make.

Now I'm reconsidering moving parts around, the actual composition comes next. Things are getting exciting.

A sudden ambush of stuff lunged up at me continually for the past few weeks.

I've been mulling over another piece for a while, trying to decide whether or not it belonged in this song. Since then I have come to the conclusion that it deserves its own legs. With that decided my brain decided to finally move past the tumble dry stage and come up with this bit. I hope you like it as much as I do.

• Part 1 - rCut2.
• Part 1 - rCut3.
  
  
  
  Lyrics:
  Don't be afraid of me.
  Lock your windows now they're coming.
  Don't be afraid of me.
  I will stop pretending if you do.

  Edit 11/24/2008:
  Added Part 2 - rCut3
  rCut3 adds a hint of xylophone and a new bass line over the "Lock your windows" line.

Thieves - another part of the puzzle

A lot of interesting things have been happening with this song. It originally started as this sort of meeting place where the members of The Jesus and Mary Chain and The Smiths sat down around a large wooden table and reminessed about their teenage years. But then space shot out my ears and the reverb dial couldn't hold still. After I had posted the part that I posted earlier, I went back and rethought a lot about how these bits would sound and how they would work together. 

I'm not sure if I've achieved either but I suppose these are the medium stages of a longer process.

I present my audience with another part from Thieves - my work in progress.

• It says "Part 3 - cut2" but don't trust it.
  
• Part 3 - cut3

Lyrics:
Who are you? Leave us alone. Thieves!


Fun facts about this chunk:
- didn't sound anything like this until after a wonderful bike ride at night where I met a fellow musician, Demez, who was also enjoying a bike ride.

- it's my first recorded guitar solo

- it's unfinished

- You'd think that a second piece of a song would clue its author in on what it's about.

Enjoy,

Brennan

Added new cut. 

Will be posting all subsequent cuts of this part when they become available. 

Thieves - part4 - cuts

Hello,

This is a section of a song I've been working on. It's called "Thieves". I thought it might be fun to show the/my fractal stages of songwriting.

Lyrics:
We need to feed. We are never full. We are thieves.

Links that are [hopefully] working:

• Part4 - Cut2

• Part4 - Cut3

If I can be as productive on the other parts I will upload those as well.

[Stay tuned. Use headphones.]

Cheers,
Brennan

Added old cut. For comparison's sake.

Will be posting all subsequent cuts of this part when they become available.
