Here's Wonderwall (Oasis):

Wonderwall went OK, no major flaws, just the pick-up not functioning properly. Quite a lot of fun with the band.

And here's Breathe (Taylor Swift):

There's one big fail just past the midpoint - it shouldn't have happened but I just lost control there.

Soon going to Casa Benelly over in The Hague where I hope to try the following:
Taylor 314ce (tried some, not really impressed, although the GA3 is excellent)
Taylor 414ce (I can't wait to hear that ovangkol, cedar - I know the 414 has a sitka top - and ovangkol might be just right for me)
Taylor 814ce
Taylor GS-K LTD (2006)
Collings OM3 (ought to be a treat)
Collings SJ Indian (ought to be a treat as well)
Avalon A200CE (pretty **** curious about this one ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/A-new-video-227786680 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/A-new-video-227786680 Mon, 08 Mar 2010 17:52:23 PST A new video. nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2010-2013 ~Dusky1991 I hope it's bearable.

I've had lessons in drums for quite a couple of years now. I think it's a good idea for me to improve on my voice.

Funnily enough I can sing the song that I'm listening to right now. I even came up with some little simple guitar bits to go along with it. The problem is though, that the lyrics aren't really for me. I mean, come on, I'm a guy. :P ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Mic-Frenzy-229348551 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Mic-Frenzy-229348551 Thu, 10 Dec 2009 14:56:20 PST Mic Frenzy... nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 Maybe I'll record some vocals (covers maybe) with it soon, stay tuned. ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Christmas-When-You-Were-Mine-Instrumental-Cover-229520080 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Christmas-When-You-Were-Mine-Instrumental-Cover-229520080 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 11:26:00 PST Christmas When You Were Mine (Instrumental Cover) nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5k9ymalqilk

I got inspired when posting back and forth on a forum about guitars and names.
So I decided to call her 'Alison', while everyone would have expected me to call 'er 'Taylor'. Well, close enough, because 'Alison' is in fact her second name (Taylor Alison Swift). :P ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Taylor-Swift-Fearless-Platinum-Ed-amp-new-toy-229721349 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Taylor-Swift-Fearless-Platinum-Ed-amp-new-toy-229721349 Mon, 16 Nov 2009 05:35:57 PST Taylor Swift - Fearless Platinum Ed. & new toy nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 I'm so gonna enjoy the DVD OMGOMGOMGOMG.
I almost choked when I opened the cd case, literally breathtaking picture (for me at least).

Now I want a large-diaphragm condenser and a small-diaphragm condenser, to either record my guitar with two mics, or record my guitar AND my singing at the same time...
Well it's just a matter of taste, but I want quality, not something from 'put your name here' brands...
So I'm basically looking at Shure and Audio-Technica. I have to narrow it down to some point don't I?
Maybe I'll post a link someday, when I recorded something. :P ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Songwriting-again-229851102 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Songwriting-again-229851102 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 17:44:20 PST Songwriting, again. nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 It's not about a break up, neither is it about a beautiful love relationship.
It's about how a particular relationship started, nice things that happened during it and how it deteriorated.

At the moment I'm trying out some chord shapes to use with the song. It's gonna have pretty standard chords, with some standard progressions.
However I used a capo in a particular place in a particular way, to make it sound just a bit different.
Maybe I'll record it someday...

And then there's school, oh man, I think I'm screwed for this year... ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/What-is-up-229926465 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/What-is-up-229926465 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:37:23 PST What is up? nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 I should have done some homeork but I hadn't, too busy training my voice, playing guitar, etc...
Now I feel like I'm getting ill, I might have caught a cold.
Neverhteless, my voice seems to work fine, still.

Yesterday, I started writing a song, it just was a burning feeling, like there was something I badly had to get out of my system.
I wrote it quite quickly, but it's gonna be a bit of a hassle to get some chords under it.
I dedicated it to my ex, but she doesn't know anything. I never expected I would ever write her a song...
I felt so excited when writing it, it j ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Singing-230036575 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Singing-230036575 Tue, 27 Oct 2009 05:15:46 PDT Singing nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 Usually I hate listening to myself sing, but this particular time, it didn't bug me at all, I suppose I'm getting better! :D

This particular girl on YouTube asked me if I could write her a song.
I accepted the offer even though I was totally unsure about whether I could do it or not.
I think I'm finally onto something now.
I had tuned my guitar to DADGAD tuning, and started experimenting with random finger positions, and got some pretty cool results. I will probably be using this in the song.
However I'm not sure how and what with the lyrics... I'll get it done, somehow... ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Blah-230161480 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/Blah-230161480 Sun, 18 Oct 2009 09:28:21 PDT Blah nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 Now I'm a bit better, school tomorrow, let's see how I'm feeling by then. ]]> http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/A-short-today-230205081 http://dusky1991.deviantart.com/journal/A-short-today-230205081 Thu, 15 Oct 2009 07:43:39 PDT A short today. nonadult journals/personal Dusky1991 http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/d/u/dusky1991.jpg?4 Copyright 2009-2013 ~Dusky1991 And I concluded that I'm not ready for a love relationship, after a brief conversation with someone who's about at the same point as I am.
