AM’s Arena … a brain massage

Q. Ok… in first place what the hack is “Mainstream”?
A. I tell ya… “Mainstream” is a band project of 4 guys from the work (Daniel “Debonzi”, “Luis” Machado, “Kleber” Saciloto, and myself)

Q. Ok… but why first songs? Are you guys composing your own songs??? OMG!!!!
A. Absolutely, you got it right!!! Everybody knows I always liked composing my own songs (or at least trying) and a couple a weeks ago I came up with an music idea and for my surprise the guys kinda enjoyed! We then met, made some changes here and there and decided to record it decently (I did record them using an old acoustic guitar and a terrible microphone just to save the idea and to send the guys). So I borrowed an amplifier from Preto (thanks a lot, man), replaced a few components of my old guitar (none of the potentiometers were working anymore after 4/5 years of no use) and gave it a try!

Luis sent me a drum line (recorded on his awesome electric drum), I recorded a few guitar lines, vocals and backings on my own and sent it to Debonzi for the bass line recording.
And now you can check the results:

* Painting Dreams
* Tonight

The songs are not finished yet (basically the end of them both are not correct) but you can have an idea of what we having in mind for the band! Write down that name “Mainstream”, you’ll hear of us!

As I always say I’m not a musician (even less a composer) and we’re all (except for Luis that is a drum monster) learning how to play so please don’t be harsh!
