 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.

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.

Play it like The Strokes or Journey (Live Stream Clip)

Don't play it like you would instinctively want to play it

I wrote a piano line that I liked, but I didn't want it to just be a slow mellow thing.

I thought it could be something more.

So I asked that band to play something with this piano part and ignore any urge to play it as a slow song.

Play an organ chug (Live Stream Clip)

The band is in the studio during a live-stream songwriting session. I started out with an organ chug idea for lack of a better thing to call it.

It was just a four beat organ chord chug idea and I asked the band to play along to see what they come up with.

I think I liked the guitar strum Eric came up with the most.

Play to a marimba, GO! (Live Stream Clip)

I had a simple little marimba part that I wanted to use for a song.

I showed it to the band during this songwriting session to see what they would come up with on the spot.

Guitar Strut 1111

This is a live version we recorded in our studio of the song "Guitar Strut 1111" from our album Rom-Comm Mixtape.

When we decided to add this song to our live set we extended it because the version on the album was a bit short. 

Also, we couldn't recreate some of the sounds from the original so we improvised.

After doing that the song got a little more over the top and kind of a bit more fun 😎

You can listen to the original version to see what we mean
