This is our website: http://www.myspace.com/benlesser


Ok this is what we do

We got our bass so we're making ambient instrumental mellow bass centric music influenced by life in the Maritime provinces


So here's the breakdown of the track:

1) Bass fingerstyle like way low on the E/B string (clean)
2) Bass like high up on the neck with like chords and trebly tone
3) Distorted bass to mimic the guitar sort of
4) Sound effects like rain and the ocean and stuff
5) Maybe a synth with a flute patch or something


So we got our effects so we're gonna use like tons of reverb on everything, to make it more mellow. Then like some distortion/drive sometimes when we want a guitar solo or lead but don't have a guitar.

Ok now we're gonna record that and most tracks will be around 3:00 but we'll have some random 1 minute ones for some reason

Ok now we gotta name our tracks so let's call them stuff like.. involving.. the ocean.. and.. Atlantic.. and.. the sea.. and.. the coast.. and wind... and other Maritimer-like stuff

Ok ready go

So you're saying all of Bens songs have a pretty obvious pattern?

I've never noticed that before.

Yeah but whose music doesn't

It's good to have some continuity on an album, I like it

For the record I'm not saying it's a bad thing it's just the way it is

It was sarcasm man. :p

I noticed that formula a while ago. While quite formulaic as my(his) music is, it is a nice listen.

Well I said I wasn't French which should point out that I'm not a separatist. So not offended.

I love how we're making fun of Ben when he's probably at a bar getting trashed.
