Good Times
Posted by psd on April 9, 2008 | No Comments
The equipment for the podcasting lab has (mostly) been delivered and we’re starting to plan for it’s use. ONce everything is connected and working properly, we’ll do some test recordings and get this show on the road. First up, a podcast from the kids in my summer Upward Bound Computer Tech class. They’ll get to preview the studio before anyone else, and, hopefully, help Caleb and I work out the kinks.
Last night, I searched Google for some simple podcasting tutorials and came across what may prove to be a easy-access podcasting gem–Gcast. You can record onto a computer, you can record from your cellphone and you can use songs from their sister site, GarageBand.com. And that click led me to this post.
In addition to being a resource for free music and soundbytes for your podcast, GarageBand is a showcase for new and unknown artists. This week’s Acoustic Track of the Week is Good Times by the Lance Sitton Band. It’s morning and I’m feeling ‘acoustic’, so I give it a listen. Huh. This guy’s pretty damn good! Definitely influenced by Jack Johnson and the whole, feel-good, surf-and-sun genre, Good Times sounds like it could have been straight off Jack’s In Between Dreams from 2005. I look to hear more from Lance Sitton.
