Let's Get Movin' by CharlieHipHop
Submitted by charliehiphop on Mon, 2007-09-17 18:25 – No comments4:34 minutes (4.97 MB)

This one is adventurous for me. It takes me out of my element on a lot of levels.
Lyrically, it's a hat tip to the dirty old bluesmen of yore, sort of a "Good Mornin' Little Schoolgirl" thing. It's supposed to sound sinister, and it does! I ain't apologizin' for my highly functional man tool, a'ight!
Musically, there's a lot going on here. It forced me to play in ways I hadn't played.

While my wife went to the post office, I recorded and mixed in the vocals. Turned out well. Enjoy, even though the mp3 format takes *a lot* away from this particular song. It sounds amazing in full audio! This is HippyHop™ -- accept no imitations.

New Experiment by CharlieHipHop
Submitted by charliehiphop on Thu, 2008-01-17 13:04 – 1 comment4:28 minutes (6.15 MB)
This was just an experiment to see if I could get multiple MIDI and audio channels playing through different programs and synced under JACK. The experiment succeeded.

One dude, one guitar, one take, one rockin' song...
Punk's not dead, no it's not, not as long as CharlieHipHop has anything to say about it.

Hope it paints a big, stupid grin on your face like it did mine :-D. Sounds way better in phones than speakers. Sorry -- total quickie.
Feel free to donate two bucks. I need it and appreciate it. Thanks!

This mix is strictly for the hi-fidelity first class travelin' section. If your sound system is not fat enough for it, don't blame me. Download it right now! Don't be stupid.
Inspired by bagpipes on St. Patty's Day, believe it or not.
If you think this is pretty fly, wait 'til you hear the extended club mix; you know, the one where I excise only the choice vocals and loop them in carefully.

Rocker (drunken drummer version) by CharlieHipHop
Submitted by charliehiphop on Wed, 2009-04-08 20:07 – No comments3:05 minutes (3.77 MB)
This was a total mess-up (last time I released one of these, "Free Key Stylin'," it got downloaded thousands of times -- go figure) so I threw it in the free bin. Some wires got crossed somewhere. The tracks all bled into each other. It's supposed to have this totally funky beat that ended up sounding like the drummer needed to go to the emergency room to have his stomach pumped. The guitar tracks got all syncopated and the effects didn't come out the way they sounded in the mixer.
Not sure if I love it or hate it. This should be called "Don't get too fancy 'cause you'll ruin something that's totally straightforward," but it's actually an instrumental version of the song "Rocker."

[Note to old "fans" -- This is a new version of the song, recorded 5-14-2009. The song's actually more relevant now than it was when I wrote it all those years ago.]
This is a song I sing to myself when I feel down. It helps me feel better.

I'm afraid that those lacking the patience to listen until 4:15 just won't "get it." Too bad for them! Enjoy.

Song to Myself by CharlieHipHop

This is one of only a handful of songs that I wrote as a teenager that I still remember by heart. I wish I had taken my own advice more often! It's a lot more meaningful to me now. Thanks, 18-year-old CharlieHipHop!

Stupid, arrogant assholes in your life got you down? Crank this up and turn that frown upside down! This is a rough draft. Look forward to more polished versions.

Song for a Good Man by CharlieHipHop
Submitted by charliehiphop on Thu, 2010-02-18 23:47 – No comments5:48 minutes (6.76 MB)
My neighbor Tony died sometime in the past few days. He was a man about the neighborhood. Everybody knew him and liked him. Even so, he died so alone that the cops had to bust down his door to confirm it.
This isn't really a song, just a spontaneous chant for Tony, a guy who might not have realized how many people will miss him.
Tony had started cancer treatment a month or two ago so this wasn't a big surprise. He didn't seem sick last time I talked to him, just a little bummed about the prospect of chemo and radiation treatment. Lot of good it did him.

I'm recording in my bedroom now. Less resonant but clearer.
I forgot to play a whole big part of the song -- the part where the guitar goes ba ba ba bahm bahm BAHM... oh well.
