We've been doing live streams of our songwriting sessions from our studio on our Twitch channel. We just turn on the camera and try out ideas and see where they take us.

Here is a clip from one of those sessions we posted to our YouTube Channel.

Rumble Fish Style (Live Stream Clip)

One of the things I wanted to try was something that sounded like the soundtrack for the 1983 movie Rumble Fish.

We took another clip from one of our live Twitch Channel songwriting sessions we did and posted it on our YouTube channel.

We just turn on the camera and try out new ideas and see what we come up with.

Hey Ocarina (Live Stream Clip)

Sometimes to come up with an idea I just look for a sound on my keyboard by just spinning the dial it has to scroll through sounds and use what it lands on.

What if we tried an Ocarina sound?

This time it landed on the Ocarina sound. 

I only know the Ocarina from the Legend of Zelda game Ocarina of Time

This is from a video of one of our live stream songwriting sessions on our Twitch channel. We just turn on the camera and try out ideas and see where they take us.

We took a  strange video clip of one of the ideas we tried out and posted it on our YouTube Channel.

Up Down Carnival thing (Live Stream Clip)

This time we try to come up with something a little weird for a song part.

Rob, Cliff, and I vamp a little on something that sounds like a broken carnival-sounding thing.

 We've been doing live streams of our songwriting sessions at our studio from our Twitch channel. We just turn on the camera and try out ideas and see where they take us each week.

We took a clip from one of those sessions that we liked recently and posted it on our YouTube channel.

Try it Looney Tunes style? (Live Stream Songwriting Clip)

On a previous live stream songwriting session, we came up with a song we tentatively called Slippery Friction.

Trying to write a theatrical bridge part (Live Stream Clip)

It needs something?

We have a theme song that we've been working on for a film. After arranging the song it still needed something. Something in between the verse and chorus that was way different than what was going on in the song.

Cliff, Rob, and I were in the studio doing a live stream and I thought we could try and test out some ideas.

Down time: guitars, drums, and bass multi-track (Live Stream Clip)

This is a live video edited into a song from multiple parts

We recorded and edited this songwriting session from a live video stream that was originally about 30 minutes long.

We also recorded the instrument tracks in our Ardour recording software as we streamed the video.

Play this one in b (Live Stream Clip)

This song idea is based on an old 30-second audio file we found

The song idea we play in the video is actually based on a short audio snippet we found in our sessions library.

The first few measures we play are what was from the audio snippet we found and we kind of go off from there.

We don't remember recording the original so we thought we would see what we could do with it live.
