Hello: After a careful consideration (budget, time and will) I decided to sell my pc laptop and buy a Mac, I wanted to see if the mac world is better than pc. So I did it, and with the Mac a little piece of software called GarageBand came for free, so I started to poke around and decided to give it a go, I bougth a keyboard controller and a Mic and a preamp firewire interfase to get the best of the software. And the result is the first song for my daugther Regina, hope you like it, The only computer generated sound are the percussion www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=34309I hope you like it is in Spanish, is called 40 semanas (40 Weeks) you get it? Well I hope I'll have more time to record a few new songs. Cheers, Gmeillon

Thanks Rob.
Yes I also tougth 36 weeks was the standar but my wife's Doc, always used 40 weeks as reference so...
I envisioned this song as a very simple concrete thing, so that's what I did.
The set up:
PowerBook G4 at 1.5G with 1.25G of RAM, 80G HD and SuperDrive Nova Mic from M-Audio 46e Keystation midi controller from M-Audio FireWire Solo audio and preamp interfase from M-Audio.

Really nice! I listened to the MP3 (w/o streaming) on a good set of speakers, and this sounds magnificant. I love whatever's going on with your keyboard synth in the background. Very heart-felt tune. Can't comment on the lyrics, however, I know they are something very special. Stan

Hi Gustavo! Very nice emotional song - *****! Is it true, that you are still unsigned? I can't believe that no record has discovered your great talent! Keep them good songs coming!

Very nice Gustavo. Love the way the chords move. And of course the guitar playing is nice as always -- everything tasteful and nothing overstated.
