Post your first song

Simply, post the first full song you ever made, no matter how embarrassing.

Mine was a crappy "remix" of TheLivingTombstone's "Like a Spinning Record" that embarrasses me so much I set it to "unlisted" on Youtube. I still laugh at my feeble attempt at a super saw in this track, even though I didn't know what a super saw was (or how to make one) back then.

(Just for clarification, that's my old musician name in the video title)

Not the first, but the earliest I could remember making in Notessimo (my DAW of choice back then).

I'm actually pretty proud of all of the time I put into this crap. I was actually looking for this a while ago, so I'm surprised I found it.

I think I was either 10 or 11 when I made this. Technically the first song I ever made was only 2 minutes but I never saved/rendered it out. This was my first song I spent days on, rendered it out, and actually listened to it to make sure everything sounded the way I wanted it to. I feel so attached to this song because it really does reflect what I've always wanted to make.

The first I ever made never made it anywhere close to the internet, so have the second one I uploaded (as the first is a different genre from what I write and therefor I don't count it)

It sounds terrible, but here it is. I'm going to be redoing this song actually. It's been up for almost a year so I want to remake it to show my improvement.

a few years ago my friend and I were once in a "Alternative Punk" band called Save the Arcade that we had a lot of good times in, at the same time we made a side project we called "Recovery Kids", it started by me showing him a project I made in Fl Studio, He loved it and decided to sing to it, in about one take we made this.



though looking back at this makes me want to some other ones ^.^ with eq'ing of course. also we just discovered auto tune.

This is the earliest that survives, and it's the product of messing with the initial version for months before giving it its final release, but yeah. Boring stuff ^_^

My first written song was "Statue Garden". I have yet to record it, because I am unable to. I simply don't have the skill.

Plus, it would benefit from a swingy/jazzy tune to go with it.

First recorded song was a little ditty called "Ponyville Summer". I...I suppose I should share it.

It's horrible.

And my first uploaded piano improvisation (apart from the bad recording quality, this one holds up surprisingly well):

I wish I still had my early midicore shitfests from when I thought I was a cool kid making music with Melody Assistant.

Actually, I probably still do on my old-ass laptop that's missing its power cord. Probably not worth it to go find them, though.

If ya mean first song, period, than it'd be this piece of crap I did on a little app for the iPad. Atrocious, huh? c:
https://soundcloud.com/dragon51116/off-task-on-beat

Although I barely count that one. I would say my first real song was made in FL Studio 10, and it was about just as atrocious or worse. Mind you, I've never done ANYTHING musically my entire life up until the point of these songs.
