Hey guys, it's been a little while....my new album "Afterthoughts" on Down Boys Records, is on amazon along with an iTunes release any day now. Recorded, mixed and mastered on iPod touch and iPad. Help spread the word..the future is here!

All I get is a page with a download link and a price of 8.99.
Shouldn't there be a preview page and some audio clips?

I would certainly not just download any songs without hearing bits of them first.


Or am I missing something?

I would be interested in hearing productions made with apps for sure.
But no samples ?.....

Please explain how to audio-preview your songs.

Cheers.

The future was already here http://thefall.gorillaz.com/

I love the Gorillaz!

That future sounded like crap.

Here's a couple of links that should work

Nice work!! I'll be getting that later today for sure. It doesn't hurt that I'm into that kind of music anyway, but from the brief clips I liked the sounds. I'd love to hear more about the process of recording it all on this platform. You should write a blog post.

What did you use for mixing/mastering? I'm looking for some decent mastering effects. I like the EQ/Compressor in MultitrackDAW, mainly because they're the only thing available to my limited knowledge.

Personally I really like a few of the songs. #2 Revolving doors is my favorite. Some SWEET guitar tone on a classical guitar there.

Theres a lot that goes into the whole process...probably just as much as I you did it on pc or Mac...some things are a little easier. I'm thinking about doing a series of videos on my fan page on Facebook/YouTube... Drums were tricky...but I found a killer solution. Email me or hit me up on Facebook....if I get enough response to justify doing video tutorials then I will, but I am really busy writing for a couple different projects write now...if there's enough of you interested, I'll find time! Thanks guys!

What amp modeler did you use, if any?

EDIT

Wait, Positive Grid......you must be the JamUp guy, right? If so, I'm totally buying JamUP based on that.

Haha...yes, I am the "JamUp" guy. And I used JamUp on "Breathing in the New"....my next album that I'm writing will use it exclusively. I've played around with all the other guitar apps around, but truth is...when it comes down to business, JamUp is the only real way to go. I'm not just saying that because I work for them--I truly believe in this product and use it everyday---that's why I approached them about the position I have, and why it's such a joy to be a part of it.

Used multitrack daw for mix and master...need to have some decent powered monitors to really hear what's going on with your tracks...I use a pair of JBL 2300 series...drums is the crazy part...I do drums with a few different apps but music studio is my favorite. I use the standard kit and set up my pads with the sounds I want...I import some tracks of guitar, bass,whatever and play along with the drums...sections at a time. I apply reverb just while I'm playing...just because it sounds better...lol. When I'm done, I do two things...select only the drum track to be exported as a .wav file transfer it to multitrack. Next I export the same drum track to a midi file. (remember no reverb on either export..just dry). With the wav file in multitrack...I can adjust reverb, compression, eq to fit the song. Most of the time it sounds great...or, you can take the midi file and load it into cubase or reaper...whatever on pc or Mac..load up ezdrummer or superior, addictive drum, studio drummer....you get the picture, and drop the midi file on the drum track your drum software is assigned to and---boom done...save to .wav and put in multitrack daw to compare the two...the drum software usually pans everything correctly and sounds great...this way, you can write your drum tracks anywhere and process them later if you decide you need to. I'll go more in depth some other time!

Not my cup of tea, but I have to admit that it sounds good! Congrats on your release.
