Lego wreath is about halfway there. Need three more leaf pieces, then it’s printing 2 sets of studs. And for the finale, assembly.
Sometimes AI tools work (like Facebook’s 3D effect)…and sometimes they don’t.
I hope it gets dark early this year for trick or treating so this Slimer projection looks good coming out of the hedges.
Got a new song in the works…but I don’t know what it should be about. Do you?
When people tell me they’re worried about AI taking over their job…
Stayed up way too late last night working on a new song idea. This is a little backwards for me as I usually write the instrumental and layer lyrics over top. This time around I had a lyrics and new music. Pretty fun. Definitely not finished. But this is a start.
Alright, the printed guitar I picked up! Not sure what to record with it…
Pepper’d: Covers by Dan Pepper
Tom Pepper
I Won’t Back Down
It’s been a minute since the last Pepper’d Cover. I’ve had this song sitting on the “to-do” list of songs and never got around to it. Slowed the tempo, put it on the piano and that’s when I found the slight change in the chorus. Enjoy!
Lots of projects on the plate, excited to do these. Going back to my PBIS content creation days. Got a video a youth leadership team lead “Rules of Recess.”
I love the discints between Cat Stevens and the opening and the Home Depot-esque theme song for the actual introduction of the rules.
Morning melody. Decided to sit and noodle while boys get ready for soccer. This little ditty came out. I imagine a mellow distorted guitar mirroring the melody up top with some added ad lib lines. Maybe it’s simply a building of sound at each turn of progression…or, I need to figure out another section.
Another nugget of an idea. Maybe it’ll come to be something. Maybe not.
I was browsing some of my “to stew on” recordings and found the very first iteration of “Let’er Rip.” Enjoy.
Pepper'd: Don't Let Go (Weezer Cover). Broke a string during the video portion of recording, but had fun recreating the first track from Weezer's Green Album.
If you haven't listened to their latest album, "OK Human"...you should.
Every now and then I get the itch to cover a song that I really enjoy. However, when I cover a song I don't come at it thinking "I'm going to take a different approach to this song." Instead, I am one who attempts to recreate everything heard in the original recording - just so I can say "I can do it too."
Here is that attempt for Eve 6's "Inside Out"
