We started playing around with a web application called thedeadline.com lately at work and were fascinated with the unique voice of the presenter in its introduction video. I decided to take a quick sample of a section of the video (starts around 7:22) and use it while Tony and I were jamming and this song was born.

This is a beautiful mess.
By all accounts this song is a disaster. But somehow it seems to come together in an odd way. It sticks together like a mutating beast puking up its breakfast.
Not exactly a pop song, but it was a fun experiment integrating different iPad instruments and effects done in post-production.

Playing around with Reactable, an iPad application with an interesting approach to making music, I recorded Wallah. Lots of experimenting going on in here. There were times I wasn’t sure who was in control, me or the iPad.

Here’s a remix of the spoken word piece, Notes. Lots of crazy sounds. I’m having a great time with Ableton Live.

This is a recording of me learning a new instrument. I purchased a copy of Ableton Live to play around with and as soon as I learned the where the gas pedal was, I went ahead and turned “record” on and this is what happened.
I love mad scientist experiments. I feel like I just created a monster.

This is a video taken and edited by our fellow banjo amigo Jim Stuby. He takes us on a bike ride through Cape Henlopen State Park. This song was recorded about a couple years ago. Jim has used our songs in a few of his videos, check out my personal favorite video taken at Henlopen Point at Cape Henlopen State Park in Deleware.

Swimming with Sharks :: Live Music Video

The fourth and final video recording we have from the Greene Turtle set is a improvisational performance of Swimming with Sharks. I’d written the words to this about a week before the show, reflecting on a very difficult work project I’d recently completed over the winter. During our set, Jeremy switched into jamming on this chord progression and I immediately thought the words might work with the progression so I just started singing along to it.

This one is a strange novelty I was playing around with. The entire piece is done only using the text-to-voice features built into Mac computers. No additional effects were used.
