| Human Kayak Test - 132 sec This experiment proved that swimming is faster than using a paddle. Song is a cover of some of Mountain's Mississippi Queen and a little of Jimi Hendrix's Third Stone From the Sun which is convenient since both songs are in E Mixolydian (major scale with a flat 7).
Midi drum is Sonar's Session Drummer, Bass is Rapture soft synth, the rest is a couple live guitar tracks through a POD. Auteur : snouter Tags: long island sound kayak  |
| Remix of GregSolomon's Song For Renetto - 67 sec I took Greg's acapella Song For Renetto with his expressed permission and tried to come up with some backing music. Greg's melody seemed to be in E major. I slowed it down, and cut and pasted the vocals onto a simple, repeating E to D progression I created using some midi and guitar.
Lyrics by Greg Solomon as follows:
So you had a bad day.
renetto says: Hello there You Tubers, this here is renettos.
You Tube let you down.
The DMCA
Doesn't want you around.
You Tube took down three
Of your video clips.
It made you real mad.
renetto says: This is all about having fun.
Got you real pissed.
renetto says: You don't do no business on You Tube, baby!
Now you say you're gonna sue
renetto says: That's me!
The DMCA
'Cause You Tube refuses
To see things your way.
Greg's original version...

| Cover Version of Momo's Alive In Death Valley - 149 sec It is a vocal intense song, so I tried to restructure in an attempt to reduce the amount of time listeners would be subject to my vocals, but I don't think it was successful in that regard. The lyrics really make it easy to visualize some more in depth stuff, but I was lucky just to borrow some images from my PC.
Check out Momo's Video of Alive In Death Valley and the contest he has going.

Alive in Death Valley
Music by: Momo and Mario
Lyrics by: Crila, Momo, and Mario
L.A. was a blur
Numb and sky-high
She couldn't find a soul
On Rodeo Drive
But she made some friends
Up in Hollywood
Blockbuster crash
Held on till she could
Vegas showgirl
Her skin as sweet as sin
For the right price
Man she'll let you in
So have another drink
And lay down all your chips
The wind is blowing right
You're gonna win tonight
Flying high, lay your life down on the line
It) breaks your heart, never see your name in lights
Cheap love and synthetic suicide
Run away to Death Valley
You're in Death Valley now
You're doing so well
Your little patch of hell
She makes another bed
14 more to go
Her hands are tired now
You know the money's slow
She had the best legs in 1994
And gave the best head
They all came down for more
Sweet little baby queen
Keep dying for her dream
You know she's done it (all) twice
God knows she pays the price

| The Google Stock Song - 186 sec Enjoy the craziness...
As you many of you know by now
You Tube is primarily a platform for psychotics to sell their products
Sell High Buy Low
Sell High Buy Low
Sell High Buy Low
Sell High Buy Low
Jim Cramer said that Google was gonna hit $1,000 very soon
He changed his mind, whatcha gonna do since he's changed his tune?
So don't trust TV, CNBC is out to make a profit off of you
Careful there, the federal reserve can pull the rug from under you too
I encourage everyone to capitalize on capitalism. So if you don't have a stupid invention trade a stock on occasion
Buy low sell high
Buy low sell high
Buy low sell high
Buy low sell high
Ride the tide that hedge funds create even though it makes no sense
Don't marry the stocks, protect yourself with a stop loss or a put option
CDs are something to consider until you figure out your risk tolerance
Research the stocks, never rely on a charlatan Auteur : snouter Tags: guitar cramer cnbc sonar warmoth techno fusion  |

| The Hunter Mountain Song #2 - 156 sec Managed to get up to Hunter Mountain last week. I hoped to climb the fire tower for a better view, but the darn thing sways in the wind and it gets scary!

| The Subprime Blues - 136 sec NewWarriorMan is trying to kick You Tube up a notch so this is my contribution to his vid requesting folks submit poetry and or song.
When we met, my baby was so fine
As time past things began to decline.
She spent my money all of the time
My baby turned out to be subprime.
She ran off with the mortgage broker
To liquidate was the fate for her.
I have been hosed, but she was exposed
The relationship is now foreclosed.
Being single I'm free to mingle
Fewer expenses, pockets jingle.
My baby, she was subprime
My baby, she was subprime. Auteur : snouter Tags: blues sonar rxp guitar  |
| My You Tube Experiences As Of Late #1 - 324 sec This is crazy.
One of my more notable You Tube experiences as of late -- was receiving a PM from legendary You Tube great Greg Sol-o-mon asking for clarification regarding a comment I made in which I state -- That way back when, Eden Maze sent me an unusual PM
I explained to Greg that it was a silly e-argument of sorts -- At that time, I had denied being a YT attention seeker -- But everyone on You Tube is an attention seeker Mr. Maze reports -- I did not concur, I prefer to refer to myself as a filmmaker
Eden Maze promptly blocked me and I blocked him I admit -- Not long before I SOLD OUT -- Mr. Maze sent me a PM from a sock account -- He was unblocking me because he felt that any and all comments -- Were ultimately to his financial benefit
I still have Mr. Maze blocked to thwart -- Weird PMs and in solidarity with those whose priority is art -- Just as NewWarriorMan supports poetry -- On second thought maybe art IS creating something out of nothing for money
Speaking of the YT partnership program and NewWarriorMan -- Apparently still upset with both is Gimmieabreakman -- In fact Victor, has recently posted a vid on LiveVideo -- IF Trevor Rieger sets up a LiveVideo drama website, then they will know -- The action there is no longer slow
In this current era of You Tube history, Trevor Rieger's UtubeDrama is the place to be -- For the latest dramatic info you need to see, -- As the crazy Psycho Hurricane would say, LITERALLY
Recently Trevor uncovered and exposed some kind of prank -- It involved renetto conspiring with others of lesser fame -- And although renetto's practical joke kind of stank -- The other day there was something funny I must proclaim
I found in my mail a boating equipment catalog -- Sipping some coffee I flipped through the pages -- I saw GPS technology to help boats get through fog -- And for people who have a tendency to fall overboard flotation devices
Past the page for sailboat hardware -- I had to stop and stare -- It was renetto's canopy chair -- Could this be a nightmare?
No, it is an opportunity -- I don't want to create a lot of hype -- But after consulting with my cat Rosey -- We at Snouter Development Corporation have created a prototype
Consider this, sitting in safety of a umbrella type chair -- Enjoying the great outdoors or whatever -- Expensive photo and video equipment kept dry when it rains and cool when its fair -- By using the Snouter Canopy Camera Protector!
The song was an exercise in the Frank Gambale concept in understanding modes by using chord progressions that use the 4 and 5 chords of the major scale on which the mode is based. Example, C Phrygian uses the notes of Ab Ionian. The 4 and 5 of Ab are Db and Eb. Those chords are played while the lead work is C Phrygian and the bass is in C. This mode creates tension. Hopefully, it is noticeable when the mode changes to C Dorian and the chords change to the 4 and 5 of Bb to relieve the tension.
The lyrics are...
The valley once green
Now a metal stream
Exhaust instead of air
At what cost, some don't care
Airbag warning stickers
Glued to the sun visors
Can be removed if you desire
Simply use a hair dryer Auteur : snouter Tags: Phrygian Dorian utubedrama instrumental  |
| The New Guitar Strings Song - 107 sec Installed a set of GHS Boomers LOW (11-53) and did a poem type thing to discuss it. I tune them down 4 half steps. I came up with a simple sequence in Project5 then imported to Sonar and recorded the vocals and the guitar track. Guitar was to some extreme settings on the PODxt Live with the wah wah pedal activated.
Here is the poem narrative thing. It starts by mentioning the mysterious video reply I received months. When I click the link, the mailbox thing is empty...
Here is a video reply from some time ago
For months it's been floating in You Tube limbo
The reason for which, I do not know
As you can see, there is no video
I got new strings and they are not light
GHS Boomers Lows, and they're out a sight
The tone get down and dirty, causing some fright
Play it all night, I think I might
The neck is very solid, it is not weak
But in a week, I might seek to give the truss rod a tweak
The nut and the bridge too, so the strings don't squeak
The bigger strings inspire new technique Auteur : snouter Tags: ghs guitar boomers low sonar project5  |
| The Car Full of Cats Song - 82 sec This 'thing' is my submission to the Sketchies2 contest which closes tonight at midnight, so hurry if you are going to submit a vid for it. The required theme is a road trip and a musical instrument so I kind of recycled the general concept in the previous vid. This was difficult though. I used a lot of catnip to keep the cat interested.
The Car Full of Cats Song is recorded in Sonar using several Dimension Pro soft synths and one guitar track using a Warmoth guitar strung with 11's tuned down to C standard into a Seymour Duncan Parallel Axis Distortion pickup an Line 6 Podxt processor. The car coincidentally is a Toyota. Auteur : snouter Tags: swamp ash guitar sketchies ocicat cat  |
| The Hitting The Streets Song - 94 sec This started as in car green screen thing that morphed into an experiment in self-cloning inspired by some of Dogg Bisket's work.
Video is 7 tracks with 4 greenscreened.
Audio is 2 guitar tracks through PODxt clean, 1 dirty, 1 bass track, 1 MIDI track using Rapture (synth), and 1 MIDI track using RXP (drums), all recorded using Sonar. Auteur : snouter Tags: sonar warmoth guitar seymour duncan ghs boomers line6 podxt  |
| Snouterized Version of Bittersweet Melody - 151 sec Just messing around here. I downloaded a midi of the song, added some synths then did a bunch of live guitar tracks and included 2 of them together. We got the superfast lulzy cat and some time lapse cloud action from Connecticut for your entertainment pleasure.
The Verve got their idea from a Stones project in which an orchestra did a version of The Last Time.

| The Mountain Bike Song 1.01 - 125 sec Sorry but this attempt to share a mountain bike ride in Trumbull Old Mine Park and Indian Ledge did not work out as hoped for. Mounting a camera on bicycle handlebars does not work! I have to devise some other method. Anyhow, hopefully this will show some nice Connecticut wilderness. There is a river on one side and a highway on the other, but the GPS device helped when I lost the trail at which time I filmed some ledges and trees.

| Snouterized Version of Can't Get Enough - 429 sec A Bad Co. song per request. Starts on 5th fret with rock version of open G (G-G-D-G-B-D) to keep it in the original key of C and attempt at vocal melody was in C mixolydian mode.

| Another Poem Response To Help With New Warrior Man's Demands - 62 sec Please be advised this poem is political in nature. It is entitled "Hillary" I guess. The written might vary from the spoken attempt at memorizing the thing...
Hillary, Hillary, Hillary
Planning your political future
For many, many a year.
100 grand from cattle futures,
Vince Foster disappears.
700 FBI files did you capture?
What about them did you fear?
What have you done as Senator,
Besides make it a career?
Hillary is like a sinister creature
With those crocodile tears.
Political hacks are in foreclosure
Please refrain from your smears.
Give someone else exposure
Who isn't a profiteer. Auteur : snouter Tags: hillary poetry  |

| A Poem Response To Help With New Warrior Man's Demands - 79 sec A neo-beatnik thing I guess.
"The IRS Ain't No Fantasy"
Oh IRS, how I love thee.
Thank you for reminding me
That I am not really free.
That 1040 you got for me in 2008
Foreshadows my dismal financial fate.
Paying taxes makes me hate
The false promise of liberty
Ain't nothin' but a fantasy
In this state.
Government extortion,
Their undeserved portion,
Like tolls on a highway,
Is legal robbery Auteur : snouter Tags: poetry IRS  |
| Some New Year's Eve Stuff - 238 sec Music vid with footage from the trek to and from the Blue Note in Manhattan to see Chick Corea's Elektrik Band which happens to be just south of Washington Square Park. I sat at the bar and they said video footage was not allowed. They don't really do anything about taking quick vid clips on digital, no flash cameras though. Song is improv to a F#m7 - B7 progression while thinking about the solo played in Pink Floyd's Time.
Check out DoggBisket's Music Vid. We did a collaboration.

| Snouterized Version of American Woman - 254 sec In an effort to increase free hard disk space, I had to use some old...well, some very old miscellaneous video along with this song. If this upload works, I can delete the old video files and the PC should function better.
Audio is two live guitar tracks and the drums, bass, and strings are Dimension Pro soft synths applied to a downloaded MIDI file. Auteur : snouter Tags: American Woman  |
