Just some irrelevant commentary on the thing that everyone's an expert on.

Suggested Songs and Songs By Me (in .MP3 & .MID)
Best of 2003 My top picks of 2003, plus old songs I discovered in 2003
The Happy Song that was Supposed to be Sad This is me playing a song I made up, on guitar. First, I made a MIDI file of the song, then I decided to record it on guitar, because I liked it. I used the MIDI for timing because I actually had to record two separate parts for this then combine them into one file (you can hear it faintly in the background). A friend of mine actually didn't believe I made this, and essentially called me a liar when I insisted that I did : P.
E.mp3
E03.mp3
E.mp3 is an interesting song I came up with involving moving the E chord shape (without the bar) to different places on the neck. There are other chords, too. I must say that it sounds much better 'live,' as the fullness of the sound comes across much better.
E03.mp3 is the same as the above, but I created an artificial echo by overlaying the same track onto itself 3ms out of sync.
MIDIs:
me.mid
The Happy Song that was Supposed to be Sad
2.mid
E_down.mid
midi.mid
Street Spirit (Fade Out)
The problem with MIDIs is that they sound different on different sound cards and different programs...
me.mid A pretty dark sounding song I originally came up with on guitar, but this brings it to a whole new level, with drums and bass.
midi.mid This is me.mid, but with an intro. The intro was developed on a guitar with two B strings (I broke the high E and didn't have a replacement)
2.mid is actually random notes I put down when testing the Midi composter I was using.
E_down.mid is the same as E.mp3 above, but midi-ized. It sounds way better on guitar.
Street Spirit (Fade Out) is a midi I made of the Radiohead song. It's not the whole song, but it's still pretty cool, if I may say so..
