music: Sympathy for the devil, The way it is, Angel from montgomery
So, it’s been a long time since I posted anything music-related. I got partial multitrack (the keyboard and the drums were on the same stereo pair since I was using the integrated drum machine in my new keyboard) recordings of me and Mike Mesford playing three songs. I’ve made a rough mix of them, which is available at http://www.sheer.us/stuff/2012/SheerAndMike/.
I don’t know how I feel about them. Usually when I’m working on a mixdown, I either love the material or hate it. With these tracks, I sort of went back and forth. I do think that ‘The way it is’ is worth a listen, especially if you’re a Dead fan since it has that sort of trippy laid back jam feeling to it.
I’m giving the stems to a friend of mine who’s more of a audio guru than me, and it will be interesting to see what he does with it.

Occasionally I feel guilty about all the people who probably download tracks from my site expecting the original rather than a cover. But ah well..
