Today's song is an instrumental that began with the main electric guitar (Intro=Am-C-Em-D, Center=C-D). Additionally, I added: bass guitar, cymbal swells, xylophone, 2 electric guitars (panned to opposite sides of the stereo-field), and 3-4 synth tracks. I worked on today's song in 2-3 sittings that totaled about 3 hours.

About Me
- OTTO
- My name is Matthew Otto, I am from Texas (USA), and I have been writing and recording music for years with various bands (2nd Home, oneunder) and under various aliases (Mumford, Squishy Jackson, OTTO). When I was 16 (1991) I bought a Tascam 4-Track cassette recorder, and my life hasn’t been the same since. I recorded hundreds of hours of music on that small recorder before graduating into the world of ProTools (2001). Over-dubbing and multi-tracking became a few of my favorite terms. Years of approaching music from a solo stand-point has allowed me to streamline the creative and technical processes involved with writing and recording. At this point in my life (34) I feel ready to challenge myself by recording a new song every day. At the very least it will improve my abilities, but I’m also hoping that the uniqueness of this project will stimulate the word-of-mouth machine…making my music available to new ears. I will start in July 2009 and continue for up to one year.
