Time Underground

My first time using recording software, "Garage Band."  I recorded two guitar tracks with a Fender Statocaster and played a conga for some percussion.  The lyrics were totally improvised,  as I watched an elderly woman through my window remove the rain from her car's windshield. 

               

Dark City

This was a change from trying so hard to write with just an acoustic guitar.   

I used a four-track (analogue) cassette recorder and recorded the drums first, then two electric guitar tracks. The vocal was recorded intentionally distorted,

as I was experimenting with a sound similar to some Beastie Boys' tracks and what Bono achieved on the "Achtung Baby" CD in the 90's.  

The lyrics were total stream-of-consciousness, not very well-thought out

but added to the overall mood I was going for. 

 

("Erase Me," Wishes," "Dark City," "Time Underground," 

"Simple Life," "Aftermath," and "Pick Me"

are original compositions by Joseph Figgiani.
