Pettier Onus

Pettier Onus

This is the latest album project, created for FAWM (February Album Writing Month). While my intentions were to complete the required 14 songs before the close of Feb, it ain’t gonna happen. Things have transpired this month (life things, such as the need to move out of present lodgings for reasons too absurd to go into) that make the goal unrealistic. However, I will continue to work on Pettier Onus with a revised aim to complete it by April.

I’ve mapped out the main structure for each of the fourteen tracks and have laid down some guitar, bass and synth tracks, but thus far I’ve only completed one track, called, appropriately enough “Inept Routes.”

227

May’s Guitar Collective task. We hadda omit using the first and sixth stings. So I fingerpicked a thing. The title comes from the motel room number where I stayed and got stewed last week.

Arpeggios it is

Third track from Pettier Onus, and also a Guitar Collective Task. Arpeggios of various note values, lasting a little over a minute.

Catching up again

I’m in the process (always in process, doncha know) of customizing a theme for this beleaguered site. But in the meantime (or kind time, have it either way) I’m going to post a number of compositions I’ve completed over the past couple months. Some are experiments in VST instruments, others are guitar “fusion” experiments. Namaste.
