Having played in bands for many years, I wanted to try something a bit more informal this time around. 6 months of experimenting with my voice, a classical guitar, and a bunch of open mic nights has evolved into THE HUMAN RACE.
me and alex just finished our first song for our new project. our myspace isnt quite finished yet, but the song is on both our myspaces. its called MK-Ultra. check it out!
thanks for the positive feedback on the new tunes. but im actually in the process of writing raps for these songs. but i just put up the instrumental tracks for now. i would love to play this stuff live but unfortunately i am not an octopus and i cannot play bass, guitar, keyboard and drums all at the same time. haha. i am really enjoying your tune and your video as well. i think its awesome that more people are using loop pedals in live acts by themselves. i would love to buy a cd or demo off of you whenever you put one together.
play somewhere i can come and see you lol come play the casbah soooon i'll bring my girlfriend and we can shoot the shit about the old days of you and the band :P
I'm into the music as opposed to the myspace layout...could just be me tho. Great tune Adam, I'm hoping you'll add new songs for us to enjoy. btw are you playing anywhere between 23 dec - 09 jan? Im in Ontario during those dates. All the best, Mike
sorry adam for all that mess those owners of the place are a bit crazy, and made that day way harder then it should be, i apologize again. but i started something new, because of some show issues, so just remember then good old, hub, and creek shows. I have another event coming up at guelph university, on the 17th and this, to make up for it, very simple event's lol. A.B.A.DESIGNS & PRODUCTIONS (Late: RITFW)
