Jam Session #14

I’ve got tons of samples I could post, but I don’t want to turn this blog into nothing but Jam Sessions. There is a new Robby Reviews in the works though… So this is a cool, techno-ish, dancey thing. Uhhh…I don’t know what else to say about it other than that it’s cool and perhaps more professional than most of […]

Jam Session #13

Hey, let’s do another one of these things. There’s a song I started working on last week that I’m super excited about that I could showcase here. But it’s not very far along, and no one would get the joke behind it. So I’m doing this one instead. More than anything, what I’m exhibiting is how a handful of my […]

New (and Old) Shirts Are Here!

Awwww yeah. Here’s some cool news for you! For some reason, I got selected to be a part of this cool new Amazon Merch program. Right now it’s just for t-shirts, but hey, what perfect timing. It’s getting hotter than a mothereffer in here (and out there). There are some weird ins-and-outs about the program, but because of it, the […]

The Making of the Best Song Ever, “Eff It”

Should I have made this a Random Blog Post? I don’t know. To me, this song is so awesome that it deserves many essays written about it for years to come. “Eff It” began its life in 2013. I’ll admit it now that the guitar riffs were inspired by Wayne Static’s “Assassins of Youth” and maybe a bit of Marilyn […]

Jam Session #12

It’s time for another Jam Session! This one is a little different from the usual.  It might even be less interesting to listen to, but I’ll give you some context behind it. This is a relatively straightforward, gross sounding, synthy section of a song I’m working on. The possibly-interesting tidbit to this is that most of my songs actually start […]

Reflecting on “Kill the Buffalo”

My latest song “Kill the Buffalo” has been available in audio format for 2 weeks now. Maybe that isn’t time to reminisce already, but it should be enough time to make some observations. Almost everybody that I think listened to it said they liked it. That’s awesome. It could just be my imagination, but it seems like my audience has […]

Kill the Buffalo Single Releasing Soon!

Awwww yeah. That’s right. My new song “Kill the Buffalo” is ready to be heard! If you like your songs heavy, about specific clothing patterns, shortish, and a tad strange, “Kill the Buffalo” is for you! Creating this song has been quite the experience for me. My goal with these upcoming songs is to pay more attention to certain aspects […]

Random Blog Post #15

Hey, I haven’t posted in a while. “Kill the Buffalo” is very close to being done. I’m trying to get it sound really good, namely the drums and guitars. Previously I had mentioned (I think) that I recorded a bunch of guitar tracks. Normally that means the guitars sound big and awesome. But when you use the same guitar with […]

Jam Session #11

Listen to my new drums! I made a short drum loop and played some guitar over it. A new guitar-recording tactic was put into place, and this is the end result. Part of me would love to make more music like this. Like, more metal or whatever. If I could figure out how to vocalize over it, I would definitely […]

The Making of “Kill the Buffalo”

Today I am going to talk about what went into creating my newest masterpiece, “Kill the Buffalo.” I’m super excited about it. Sometime last year, I began to notice people at work wearing lumberjack-style shirts. Affectionately called Buffalo Plaid, the design of these now-trendy shirts irked me. Why are all these people wearing such a stereotypically Canadian lumberjack pattern? I […]
