SCRAPS EP by Find Your Way

Normally I write out descriptions and stuff in Japanese in an attempt to emulate Japanese circles, but I thought it would be fun to peel back the mask and use frank English for once.

Here is a chronological compilation of demos and live recordings from the 2~ years between October 2013 and November 2015. The majority of these songs were recorded for Weekly Beats 2014, a challenge where you create a new song every week for the entire year. More than 1/4th of my total songs for Weekly Beats were Find Your Way songs, and a good majority of those ended up being good enough to release in the end. For the record, I did manage to write, arrange, or make something new every week for the entire year of 2014.

Hopefully you, the discerning listener, will enjoy listening to these. There are liner notes about each track in the "lyrics" metadata, so you can read them on your iDevice or even just on the bandcamp page itself without changing pages.

This release, like the majority of Find Your Way releases to this point, is free, but if you can spare a few dollars, I'd be most appreciative. I'm broke as hell. Thanks.

KEY:

"midi demo" - song is in general MIDI

"demo" - either exported directly from tuxguitar as a WAV (tuxguitar on mac is weird and doesn't export the general MIDI audio?) or imported into Logic and given garage band instruments. May or may not have vocals; if it does, they were recorded using the macbook mic

"acoustic demo" - song I recorded using the macbook microphone directly into audacity

"acoustic" - song I recorded using a real microphone, ie. I put some effort into making it

"_.tg" - song that was scrapped because I didn't like where it was going. I didn't "feel it," as it were. I keep a "garbage folder" of songs I start but later decide to throw away; I have added the ones I thought were interesting to this compilation. Note that I did not say any of the songs labeled this way were necessarily "good."
