#78

I'm a tough sell when it comes to original music from independent artists. For me, when someone has been signed to a recording contract, their music is at a level that achieves that recognition. While there are independent artists that are just as good (and sometimes never get to that next level), usually there's a difference in the songwriting that just doesn't grab me as much as "recording artists". Not a cut on anyone anywhere....it's just me. This however, I feel is at that higher level.....easily!!! I'd throw this song on a mix CD with the best of 'em!!! Plain and simple...a great song. There's an Ozzy vibe to the vocals to me, as well. LOVE it!!!

 
Thanks Scott! 

Since I do all of my recording in my "home studio" (aka dining room) while trying not to disrupt the rest of my family, here's my setup...

Shishkov #78 --> Line6 AMPLIFi FX 100 --> Cubase 8.5 running on Toshiba laptop

Yamaha BB734A Bass --> Amplitube Ampeg Amp Emulator  --> Cubase/laptop

Drums: Addictive Drums 2 running in Cubase/laptop

 
I use the AmpliTube Ampeg sim sometimes. Lots of great tones in there for sure. Usually I just mic up a Champ and run direct simultaneously.

!), I found myself playing a few Christmas songs.  I’ve never had the urge to play Christmas songs before, but for some reason those songs just started flowing out of me.  Maybe I was overcome with a bit of the Christmas spirit at that moment.  I really liked what I was hearing and thought others might need a dose of Christmas spirit this year too, so I decided to record it and share it with you.  Here is my interpretation/medley of a few Christmas classics.  Merry Christmas to all of you![/SIZE]

Great stuff!  Merry Christmas to you too!

 
Very good stuff!  My collaborator Aaron Campbell is like you in that he has recorded lots of Xmas songs with a cool sensibility!
