Here is a short improvisation on my cigar box guitar. The cigar box guitar part is only around 2 minutes long so I repeated it then added a few drum layers over it. Some of the drum tracks include cajon, cymbols, woodblock, xylophone and a bass drum. Towards the end I bring in a couple tracks of my G&L Fallout. For the fallout I play inside the pocket of a digital delay at the same bpm for the song to get a nice bouncy note effect for the leads. I called it a stay of execution because the overall mood of the song reminds me of a criminal waiting for a verdict on their innocence from the court.

Here is a timelapse drawing of an abstract quadrant ballpoint pen doodle. Its fun to just doodle sometimes as a form of meditation to forget the troubles of the world. Once the ballpoint pen drawing was done I added some color in photoshop. The background music is an improvisation to a drum beat I programmed in Superior Drummer. There are four guitar tracks that make up the composition. There's a lower fuzz style bass track that sounds like a synth. Then there is the main distortion rhythm track. Finally there are a couple lead tracks with delay. All the guitar tracks were recorded on my esp ltd Stephen Carpenter seven string. Thanks for watching and listening :-) #drawing #postrock #stephencarpenter ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKR2scdSHu8

Here is a post punk style improvisation that started out with a bass riff and a custom drum beat in Superior Drummer. Once I had the bass and drum tracks figured out I improvised a few G&L ASAT tracks over it. The first track has bias fx 2 with a dotted eighth delay and some overdrive. The second track is a huge mess of effects in guitar rig 6. Overall the gritty kind of mood of the song reminds me of how civilizations eventually grow old and decay then finally fall apart.
