Update, and cool GarageBand stuff

by Bill on April 23, 2010

Just a quick post to update regulars on where things are going with Jamcast. If you’re a subscriber, you’ll notice that I’ve been spending the past few weeks posting backdated material to tie in with my new book, so everything’s been focussed very heavily on understanding harmony and related topics.

Anyway, that’s nearly done, and I’m going to be posting some more stuff on general musicianship and music tech topics in the near future. I’m also going to restart the tutorial series on songwriting, which ground to a halt after a couple of videos last year because I got engulfed in writing the book. Lots of people have been asking for it to be completed, so I’m going to get on the job in the next few weeks.

On the subject of music tech, have a listen to this cover of Eurhythmics’ Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This, as recorded by the Walldogs, of which chum of Jamcast Matt Wallace is a member. The whole thing was done in GarageBand ‘09 - which shows you just how much you can achieve with this so-called “entry level” DAW.
