Whatever Unfolds

Whatever Unfolds



My Ep is, Whatever Unfolds by Eric Cripe, these are some songs that I put together. If you read my blog on  RT VIII, then I'm going to repeat some of it here. I took a  little liberty and used a few recording templates that had a drum beat and added guitar and lyrics to. I also remembered a couple tips from your reviews and applied them. I used a voice peddle board to add a fun tone to my voice on a couple of the tracks. These songs have no collective story or over all view just things that came to my head when playing and recording.
Over all these songs are just fun and funny and may just tug at your heart. Again I am not a technical guy so I cant even tell you a single name of the gear that was used but Mike does and has told me and I was impressed. So far the mixing has been done by me so the levels are a little all over the place but that's the fun of it.

Track Listing (in order as they appear)
1. Steal a Minute
2. B.F.V.U.
3. Man with a Mic
4. Jollien
5. Single Cat Lady
6. Chimpmunk Dirt
7. New

Whatever Unfolds

Finally found time to post a blog before the week is thou  I have finished recording my solo EP, Whatever Unfolds, now becomes time to master it and bounce it. I am unfamiliar with this part. Mike G. is the man to that I usually hand this over too  but we have began to set up for our follow up to, A boy and his Demon. Plus I use his recording gear.  Whatever Unfolds are some songs that are similar to my last EP, JabberJay, just me and a guitar. I took a  little liberty and used a few recording templates that had a drum beat and added guitar and lyrics to. I also remembered a couple tips from your reviews and applied them. I used a voice peddle board to add a fun tone to my voice on a couple of the tracks. These songs have no collective story or over all view just things that came to my head when playing and recording. I have my plan for my album art. Over all these songs are just fun and funny.
Today Mike, Brad Shearer, and I are setting up gear to record "A Boy and his Demon 2". Tomorrow we are going to have a full session and put the music to the scrip. It should sound awesome because we have some great and expensive gear piling into the studio. Again I am not a technical guy so I cant even tell you a single name of any of it but Mike does and has told me and I was impressed. So Just to say the least that I am STOKED.
I also now that this is only the beginning of the because next week, we get to rock all this awesome music. I get to listen to whatever I want at work so I plan on playing them all and reviewing them all. I felt bad when I realized that I did not review every-bodies last record time. My apollogies, spell-check fail, and this time I will or you can write a song about how much of a liar, I am.
Keep  the Music Alive
