Yes the kind of home recording has returned, Dave is back this week.

We have a Zoetrope 2.5 minutes on BitCrusher

Albert does a segment on how he records his slowed down background vocals.

We discuss our music and why I am playing too many video games.

Most importantly our Summer Song Challenge - Write and record a song with a place name in the title.

This weeks tunes:

Heart In A Cage - Good Question goodquestion.ca

Promises - Bryan Eddy Bryan's Videos
