Shane Faubert Demos... I have no idea how this will work out, but here goes. Since before the formation of the Cheepskates I have been making demos, and as you can probably tell from the rest of this site I have a soft spot in my heart for anything lo-fi. Well... it's time for the lo-fi, unproduced and somewhat naked Shane to appear in public. You can now download .mp3s of my demos either one at a time or in clumps of 10 (clumped files are .zip'd). Play 'em, trade 'em, cover 'em, make 'em sound better, burn them onto CDs and give them to your friends. Do what you will with them. Server space and bandwidth usage cost money (so do my kids, for that matter) so I am putting a PayPal donation button at the bottom of the page. They'll sign you up on the fly if you don't already have an account. A quarter per song would be nice but you're not under any obligation to send me a dime. I just want this stuff out there... maybe some of you will be inspired enough to make your own demos and put them where we can all hear them. Goodness knows your recording setup will be better than mine was! That said, some of this stuff is really good. For you completists out there... "real" studio versions of all but four of these songs eventually ended up on some kind of release by either the Cheepskates or Shane Faubert. "Boyfriend's Heart" and "No" were admirally covered by the Masticators and the Tryfles (respectively). "C'Mon" and "So Do I" have never shown up anywhere before... have they? No matter. If this is successful I will add more (threat or promise? You be the judge!). That's it. No rules, no obligations. Enjoy the music. To download, right click (control-click for Mac folk) and save the link to your hard disk. |
