Announcing the Metafilter Short Fiction Anthology! Previously
suggested by
Effigy2000, the Metafilter Short Fiction Anthology is a chance for all us writer-type or vaguely-writer-type Mefites to get together and write write write! We'll be taking a "
Thieves' World" approach to our writing with each story in the Anthology taking place in a setting
first posited by Mefi's Own
L. Fitzgerald Sjoberg and then
fleshed out by himself and members of the Mefi community. All who are interested are encouraged to join in!

Pink Floyd fans may not need no education but
Gilmourish, an exhaustive review of the guitars and audio effects of Pink Floyd's David Gilmour (with help from an insider), will leave most comfortably numb.

Perhaps you were looking for some trance-y didjeridoo/jews harp/beatbox music today. If so,
you're in luck.

I had this vague melody a year or so ago, and at the time it was starting to become a song about riding my bike at night, drunk. I stuck it on the backburner until after I saw that Johnny Cash bio-pic, where they sing that June Carter duet "Time's a Wastin'" together, (which they never did in real life.) So then I got this idea to write a nice country duet like that, but instead of it being all happy and fresh-new-relationship-let's-consummate-it kinda thing, I wanted it to be about people that hated each other intensely. People that were sick and tired of seeing each other everyday for years and years. Then, for an added twist, I forced my lovely wife to sing the harmony part. We actually do like each other, though.

At our local supermarket there's a really happy guy that wrangles the shopping carts. He's really, really tall and kind of looks like Lurch. He is always smiling and so into his work that I always wonder what's going on in his head.
He's
my superhero.

A second pretty much complete song for the RPM Challenge.
Fancy ears will be able to pick out my attempt at learning to play the Cuatro that was hand-delivered to my front door from the awesome and amazing
Micayetoca in Venezuela.

An ode to some of the more vibrant personas and memorable events in Metafilter history -- and an homage to the classic tune by The Nails. Lyrics with tremendous amounts of annotation inside.

For some reason, the first few sips of beer give me sharp pains in my shoulder and elbow joints. First noticed it a few years ago and forgot all about it until last weekend as I only drink red wine and the occassional pint of cider now.

SF writers only use six words.
A collection of six word epics from the cream of contemporary SF writers. Can Mefi do better? I reckon!

A hauntingly mellow groove highlighted by Sylvia Plath's "Mushrooms" as performed by the poet herself.

A quiet electronica piece I wrote not too long ago. This is music to chill out too.
It gets the job done.

"In the dark she fakes another little death, and says she thinks that it'd be better if he left. With ashes floating on her breath, she lights another cigarette." Down-tempo alt-country with a cello. From Pocket Novel Mystery's "Eight Days in the Life of Grace."

A light-hearted vocal tune/experiment - all sounds are from my own voice, including the potentially craptacular quasi-beatboxing in the middle. Enjoy!

A recent recording of a slow and maybe a little creepy song I wrote a couple of years ago. I'm responsible for all vocals and instruments minus the bass, which was recorded by my Scottish buddy Riadsala.

Awesome stuff, guys. I'll represent retro/chip music:
I'm involved in the niche hobby of writing new music with old videogame hardware. The music you are hearing was programmed in notepad using a TurboGrafx 16 (PC Engine). It's meant to combine Capcom and Konami videogame soundtracks of the late 80s, hence the weird title.
I perform this music live in NYC, with guitars and lasers. I got awesome advice on Ask MeFi about how to get my equipment to shows, and as thanks I'll share my stuff with whoever might enjoy it. More of it is at
my site, and my friends who also do this
share it
also.

Written last year for the sole purpose of having an easy, super-poppy song to learn to play the crappy used drum kit I had just bought in Kensington Market.
This song wanted to go in a Beatle-y direction, but sadly I think it came out sounding more like The Oneders.
It is what it is.

Some stuff that happened. A mild case of OCD.
A neighbourhood mom played the violin.
