Yes I’m late putting up a new song, but in all fairness the holiday didn’t make it easy since I was out of town for about two weeks of this month. I had just enough time to record the guitar, bass, and program the drums, but I wasn’t able to get a decent vocal take before I left. I think I’m also being kinda picky with this one since it’s kinda my favorite one I’ve written so far, so I want it to sound as good as I can make it. I promise it won’t take nine months to finish though.
In other news, our myspace page got bumped down on the scroogle search for sonador, it seems to fluctuate a lot though, because I checked it three times and the first time it was at thirteen, the second time it was at ten, and the third time it was at eleven. Here’s a screenshot for your amusement:

I just checked and if you search sonador on scroogle our myspace page comes up as number eight on the list! Yay! I also checked on google to see if we made the front page or if the advertisements pushed us off on to the second page, but they didn’t, our myspace page is on the front page of google when you search sonador too! Double Yay!

My sister’s boyfriend [EDIT: ex-boyfriend] asked me if I wanted to start another band with him, he used to play in The Noise Vandals with me (a cover band I’m in which seems to be going nowhere at the moment). Since he already has a bass player and a drummer I decided that I would. Of course this doesn’t mean Sonador is over with or anything, I’ve already got the guitar, bass, and drum tracks recorded to the next song I plan on posting to the site before the month is over. I’m still hoping we find a drummer for ourselves, but until we do I’m gonna jam out with him in this other band, and if we do find another member for Sonador I’ll probably just stay in both bands, lots of other people do it. So just like with The Noise Vandals I’m posting this in case anyone is interested, I’ll post a link here when a band name/myspace page/website is created.

I decided that we don’t have enough songs up on the website, as a matter of fact the last one was recorded about nine months ago. But it’s not like I haven’t been writing songs, I just haven’t been recording them. I have a ton of songs written, but I think I’ve just been waiting for us to find a drummer to really record them. Well, I think instead I’m just going to record what I have with DrumTrack and Hydrogen, and when we do find a drummer, then we’ll just re-record them, because actually I’m still learning mixing techniques so the quality of these recordings compared to others aren’t the best anyway. Mostly they’re just something to show what we sound like, and the direction we’re headed musically. So I’ve decided that to keep myself motivated with this, I’m going to record at least one of the songs I’ve written every month and upload it to the site. Perhaps I’ll get to the point of doing it more often, but at least nobody will have to wait nine frikin’ months just to hear a new song from us. So in that spirit (and because October is almost over with), I’ve uploaded a new song called Break It, you can listen to or download it in the audio section.
Oh yeah, before I forget, I also decided to get rid of the ogg vorbis format in favor of the lossless FLAC format. If you have no idea what ogg or FLAC is don’t worry, just download the mp3’s and be happy. But for those who actually do use oggs you probably also know what FLAC is and how to convert FLAC to ogg if you need to, so really nothing’s been lost. But if for some strange reason you do know what ogg is but not FLAC, you can use BonkEnc to convert FLAC to ogg. And for those of you who’s curiosity has been peaked, FLAC is an audio format that has no loss in quality like a wav file, but is compressed so it’s a lot smaller than a wav file. Mp3 and ogg music files are lossy, meaning they are of lesser quality because of the compression method used to make them much smaller than FLACs and wavs. But anyway, enjoy the new and upcoming music.

We went and saw Lipstick Homicide last night, and a punk band called Baby Guts opened the show. Afterwards I got their latest CD, The Kissing Disease, while Billy got that and their EP, Gasoline (I didn’t have enough money for both but I did get a free button ) Anyway you should definitely check them out, they also have a website at www.babyguts.com
I hope they play more shows near us, I wouldn’t mind seeing them again, they were pretty fuckin’ cool. If they’re playing a show near you go see them, they’re awesome.
