GarageBand Contest

Yesterday, I was told that Los Muchachos Mexicanos been signed up for the GarageBand Contest at the Apple store in Ginza. The contest was today and I didn't have a song ready so I spent a few hours last night and made something I thought was semi-presentable. When I showed up for the contest I saw that about 30 people registered, but only 12 showed up.

Anyway, without going into detail about the contest itself, Los Muchachos Mexicanos won and I got a free iPod nano, which was cool because my old iPod decided to stop working a while ago.

I put the song I made for the contest on the songs page.

Los Muchachos on MySpace!

Los Muchachos Mexicanos now has a song on MySpace! The song is called Pop/Rock Song for a TV Commercial, but that was too long for the MySpace song uploaded so it's just PoRock song over there. It's actually only the first part of the song even though it sounds like it has a real ending. I started working on recording the song maybe 2 months ago and got as far as what's on MySpace in about an hour. Since then I keep putting off adding sections to the song and re-recording it.

The other day I listened to the short version again and figured it sounded OK and Los Muchachos has been around long enough without any recorded music so I put it up.

If you don't like MySpace for some reason, you can download a 192k MP3 version on the song from here.

Nice Shot Scene 3

Video is playing at the Tokyo Helloz Nice Shot Scene 3 event coming up this 8/7 at the Nakano Mod Studio (Google Map).

The lineup for this Nice Shot is pretty rockin'. Lots of fun bands and no Mamidori.
