Description
I taught my 6-yr old son how to record himself "singing" and playing the midi drums on Garageband. I added some beats and bass lines to make it listenable. I don't expect to hear it at the clubs anytime soon.

I can't breathe in here
I love the can't breathe line. Is that your son imagining
himself as a chip in the bag? I couldn't rate this one. Just
let it wash thru me. I'm thirsty now... But give your son a
big congrats on this track. Very cool background stuff
going on.

Thanks!
I'll let my son know that his song has brought some
joy.

The coolest thing was the process--he would yell or
howl or whatever just to see the waveform appear on
the screen.

It was also cool seeing him record, listen, record
again...all on his own. I was playing with a Merlin
when I was 6. I still have the tune "Red River Valley"
going through my head non-stop.

Thanks again for listening...

the others are better!
Even though this piece had a few funny aspects, I
enjoyed your other two kid-noise tunes much more!
The sounds of your son did not mesh as well with
the music on this one. It was just some noises over
the top of some loops. Aikafen was great because
you made the rhythm from the actual noises your
son made...and Découpage was great because the
cooing really fit with the background music.
Anyway, I loved your other two and look forward to
more tunes from you in the future. My kids really
love hearing the music you make as well...they
request AIkafen and Découpage all the time...

Cool, glad to hear your kids love it.

Yeah, this one was more just a chance to let my son go nuts with GB.
Nowadays he is actually draggin up loops and making some neat stuff. I may
get him to sign up at MJ.

As for the kid-based stuff, I may post one of the many others I've done since.
That is, now that I know I've got some dedicated fans.

Thanks a bunch!
