I just realized that I haven’t really explained what I’m actually doing to resurrect one of my favorite musical projects, Punk Rebel Renegade. It’s an album I originally recorded in 2011 with fairly primitive equipment. Despite that, it actually sounded pretty good. But for whatever reasons, revisiting these old recordings shows how far I’ve come as far as production goes. […]
Nope. This isn’t going to be the last time you hear about me “resurrecting” Punk Rebel Renegade, my unsung 2011 album. If this is your first time hearing about it, Punk Rebel Renegade is an album I recorded about 4 years ago. I never really released it, but I was done with it by the end of August 2011. Since […]
I’m pretty sure this will be the last installment of Resurrecting Punk Rebel Renegade because I know I’m just a few days from sending my audio files to be mastered. Like with Heat Stroke, I plan on doing a retrospective, so there are things I will save to talk about there. So back in Part 2, I explained where Punk […]
Today is my birthday. I am celebrating it with you (if you’re swift enough to be reading this on March 19th). I can’t remember the last time I really celebrated my birthday. Usually the birthday celebration consists of eating macaroni and cheese when I get home from work. It’s not the most celebratory thing in the world. But, I feel […]
If you wanted me to lazily continue from the last installment, sorry. I’m going to talk about copyright stuff. Let me start by saying I’m totally cool with how this works. I’m not going to fight it. I’m not going to even complain about it. But there are 2 songs on Punk Rebel Renegade that feature some copyrighted content. I […]
Last week, I left you with a cliffhanger. It was late 2010, and the words “Punk Rebel Renegade” entered my brain when I felt the need to explain why my guitar strap was extended so far. My explanation for wearing my guitar low was because I was a punk rebel renegade. An hour later, I had decided that would be […]
This series isn’t going to be nearly as long (or probably as entertaining or informative) as the Recording Heat Stroke series, but I’ll do my best to keep it interesting. So over 4 years ago, I “released” an album called Punk Rebel Renegade. And by “released” I mean…burned the songs to a CD, listened to it myself, had a couple […]
I’m halfway through another Robby Reviews post, but before I get that put up, I’m going to ramble about some music things. A lot of it is going to piggyback off of the last Random Blog Post I did, but maybe that’s a good reason to do another one anyway. I don’t know. So Heat Stroke has been out for […]
I haven’t updated in a while since Heat Stroke came out. I’m still working on the retrospective, and as I will also mention there, I’ve been taking more time and been more careful about writing about the songs than I did actually writing and recording the songs themselves. Kind of funny. Maybe. There are some things in the oven, heating […]
Hopefully, if you’re reading this, you’ve likely listened to my new album. If you haven’t listened to it, or if you want to listen to it again, see this post. You can listen to it for free! You have no excuses! Then you can be on the same page as everyone else. After you’ve listened to the songs a time […]
