People generally don't write too many songs about weird, computery geeks, so I had a little trouble with this one. So, taking cpratt's cue, I'm bending the rules on this one.

Instead of a song about me, I chose a song by me. A while back, I used to write and record a lot of music. I wrote and recorded an entire album with a drummer friend, under the name pon. Later, I did several recordings with two other friends. We briefly became a really awful cover band. It was awesome; you had to be there.

I've slowed down quite a bit, starting around the time I finished college. But I still record here and there. Here's a song I did a while back, using a loop of my friend Brian's drumming and sound bites of the TV show, Wonder Woman.

Avoid That Bullet - Mike d'Arnaud

Enjoy!

What instruments do you play?

[goodolmike.livejournal.com]

I played trumpet in high school, then I played guitar (horribly) for a while. Got marginally ok on bass at one point, then recently I studied piano for a few years.

Now, I mostly play drum machine. :)

I started on drums at 5 and piano lessons at 8. Drums are still my first love.

I keep dreaming of just buying a drum kit. I have room in the garage. I should just do it!

I need a drummer and a bass player.

If I lived nearby, I'd be bout it bout it. Even though I'm totally out of practice.
