OMG!!!!Call me sad, but I have tears in my eyes here... I'm so thrilled. I just found a couple of VERY long lost tapes. It's music I recorded waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back before I could even play an instrument, circa 1988, right through to an original master tape of the last stuff I did on guitar and keyboard before moving over to computers and midi circa 1992. I thought this stuff was lost forever.
I'm playing it now, just to remind myself how good/awful it all was. The later stuff's quite raw and simple but has a real charm to it, you can hear the ideas coming through, how I'd use my lack of skill to my advantage and make something really original. The earliest stuff... hehehe... it's unbelievably terrible, no-one but me would enjoy it. Time to fire up the CD burner and make sure I never lose this stuff again, then bung it all onto an mp3 comilation CD, everything I've ever done (at least the stuff I still have) right from the very beginning, to the stuff that I previewed on here last summer. A very exclusive few people can expect copies of this in the post whether they want it or not.
Ugh... wtf is this track? Still playing the tape, but this one's not on the tape I've been playing for the past 10 years. Freaky. Must be the last guitar piece I ever did, and hehehehe... oh my, there's a sample I ripped off from a game on the megadrive back then.
