		<description><![CDATA[Chico, CA independent band Beat Concrete post their new song demo, 'W R Doctor Funkenstein', as a free MP3 for non-commercial use. It's a 3-minute paean to peace and social justice disguised as a silly rock song.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Spent Sunday recording this and then made some tweaks and got a mix together today. Pretty much the same process as for 'The End of the World': cranked it out using Project5 and the little Line6 GearBox. Had to dig out my M-Audio Firewire 410 interface to record vocals as I didn't want to go through the hassle of getting a microphone into the 1/4" input of the GearBox. That turned out to be a mistake as the 410 is really a POS that always has driver problems. It almost destroyed my laptop (had to do a serious CHKDSK) but finally got it working although it wouldn't work side-by-side with the Line6 box.</p>

<p>The whole goal of demos is to record something simply and easily but it wasn't the case this time. But technology aside it was pretty easy to come up with the parts to go with the main guitar and vocal lines and Beki and I had some fun Sunday night singing background vocals. The song and mix aren't very tight but it got a draft down on tape (so to speak) so that we can start playing it as a band in rehearsal. Which won't be until next month when Ken gets back from his Euro vacation.</p>
<p>For once I wrote a 3-minute song. It's a simple little ditty with some covert messages about peace and social justice. But mostly just a little ditty...</p>
