Midweek Music: Time Castle

By Duane Lauginiger of Time Castle 

 

When a musician comes over to Time Castle, we make a song on a time limit. Often on a 4 track, usually pretty rough sounding, always in the moment. 30 minutes to write, 30 minutes to record, 30 minutes to mix. Most tracks become a demo for a later more polished song. Below are 15 of them.
