I had about ten minutes to sneak in a recording tonight, and this is what I got. Unfortunately, the recording equipment wasn’t set up quite right, and the result has a nasty hum in the background. This renders the recording basically useless, but it’s a decent piece, so I thought I’d put it up here anyway.

Update: I’ve reprocessed this piece, and I think I’ve mostly gotten the hum and noise out of it, so this one makes the cut! Have a listen to the second version to compare.

My recording equipment is quite primitive. A single mic sitting on the soundboard of a 6 foot Kawai, passing through a Peavy mixer straight into Audacity running on Winduhz. Some braindead mastering and out comes an MP3. I’m convinced I gotta get me a digital recording thingamajig and a couple of decent microphones. I think that might happen soon, cause I’m getting real tired of hiss and 60hz buzz and bad levels wrecking my good ideas 
Actually, though, I think I might be able to filter some of that buzz out of this one and salvage it, cause I think I like it too.
Night and day differece. Very nice piece.
