Another fun one, this one pretty much wrote itself musically. Most of the time was spent on arrangement, and got pretty intricate for a jam.

Had a bit of a melody. Aimed the mic at the piano and just played.

Had a lot of fun with this one. Wrote the intro first, then scrounged around for the right beat to match the vibe of the verse. Ended up with some real subby bass and 808 kicks to layer, and the rest was just goofing about with presets. Too lazy to actually mic the guitar today, just DI into Amplitube.

Had a blip of inspiration for the bass line, found a beat to match it. Turned into a cool track.

A few tracks of improv, a lot of reverb, and a bit of automation

Went in a really crazy direction with this one, and it turned into kind of an alt country cyberpunk track. Used the arpeggio as a soundbed to form the chords, then recorded the guitar to a click track. Stuck with just a single drum kit but got really intricate in the programming, pretty proud of the results.

Just a jam, a bit of instrumental hip-hop. First 2026 jam with a bridge!

Started with a cool sounding patch and built out a little synthwave jam. Has a weird 12-bar adjacent vibe in the chord progression.

Bit of a quickie, kept it to a chill downtempo track that uses drum fills to continue progression and movement.

A little chill track, hanging out with some of my favorite sounds

A little synthwave / chillwave adjacent jam. Played with the idea of having just a single loop but using the reversed loop as the verse

Been leaning pretty hard on my AstroLab 37 for inspiration. Digging through the eleventy billion presets in Analog Lab looking for the good stuff leads to tracks it seems. This one was pretty straightforward. Had to play "find the chords" again for the chorus and ended up doing some pretty interesting inversions to keep it interesting.

A bit quicker today, under 2 hours. Bass line was where it started with drums shortly after. A lot of time spent on the chorus chord progression, though, as the bass worked but I couldn't quite figure out which chords were implied by it...

Bass line and beat rattling around in my head today. Found a killer electric piano sound and laid down the melody. Built around that. A bit faster today, got it wrapped in a little over 2 hours

Pretty standard classic trip hop jam. A little rusty so this one took me over 2.5 hours -- gotta lock in if I'm gonna make it...

Our classic track performed live. From our "Live from the Garage" audio/video album, out May 2, 2025. ▶ Links : https://links.endlessblue.com/@live-from-the-garage

Sweet Jane (Live Version) by Endless Blue

This one has Amanda, our second singer for our first album, on lead

A little Johnny Cash / Sting cover. The live version is quite a bit different than our studio version with the introduction of the baritone guitar to really deepen the tone and vibes.

This was originally written for a (of all things) revolutionary war period piece soundtrack. Laura improved over the top of the guitar part and I sliced it up and arranged it. Added samples and other instruments later to fill out the full song.

A little Lou Reed done in our signature style...

Chill layered track using only guitars

This was a fun Monthly Music Mission that turned out pretty difficult to pull off. I used only Brian Funk's COINOP pack and used only native Ableton effects. Working within these limitations was pretty rough, mainly because I was not very familiar with the tools as full-fledged Arturia addict... But I'm pretty pleased with the outcome.

Silent All These Years (Tori Amos Cover) by Endless Blue

This is a pretty old track I pulled out of storage and updated. Gist of it was pretty well written, but gave it a stronger chorus and a bit more structure.
